You’ve heard of pouring beer (or rosé!) on your hair for shinier locks and soaking in wine baths for ultra-nourished skin, but what about incorporating champagne into your beauty routine? It turns out that a little bubbly is not just fun to sip, but it's also good for your skin and hair. Bella Schneider, an esthetician and the founder of Bella Schneider Beauty and the LaBelle Day Spas & Salons, explains.
“Champagne has antibacterial properties that can be used as a toner to help promote clear skin, and the polyphenols found in champagne help repair damaged skin by reducing inflammation and restoring elasticity, while the tartaric acid evens out tone,” she says. “Additionally, the polysaccharides in champagne deliver oxygen to the skin providing lift and a tightened effect.”
Since straight champagne might be a little drying to your skin, it’s best to use products that are specifically formulated for topical usage. We rounded up several champagne beauty product options, including an entire line of hair care.
You'll appreciate that this cleanser features 100% natural, certified organic ingredients, including olive, jojoba and coconut oils, crushed grape seed, aloe vera gel and rosemary extract. It gets its "champagne" name from the crushed grape seed, which is high in antioxidants to protect skin and make it glow. This cleanser is ideal for normal or combination skin.
It doesn't get much more luxurious than a facial scrub that's doused with champagne, gold and crushed pearls. This product gently buffs away dead skin cells to reveal rejuvenated, soft skin. The champagne helps clarify and even out texture and tone, pearls protect the skin while promoting collagen production and gold soothes and brightens. Save this scrub for special occasions or indulge regularly — the choice is yours!
Cuvee features champagne extract in not just one or two products, but in every single item within the line. Products include their champagne styling spray, shampoo, conditioner and a number of hydrating, restorative hair treatments. Champagne, white truffle and platinum extracts join forces with hair ceramides, resveratrol (found in red wine) and pea proteins to rebuild and strengthen strands.
Prai Beauty, founded by beauty expert Cathy Kangas, is a cruelty-free brand that focuses specifically on cutting-edge anti-aging skincare. It has a number of luxurious collections, but given today's topic, we're focusing on the Champagne Collection, which features a body cream, serum, cleanser, toner, face cream and concentrate. Each is formulated with Champtille champagne to protect and nourish the skin, white truffle extracts to balance the skin and the brand's unique PRAI oil to hydrate and smooth.
