Review: Caudalie Beauty Elixir 使用报告：欧缇丽（大葡萄）皇后水

Hi all, today I want to share my opinion on a product that is so raved about on the internet and it is the Caudalie Beauty Elixir.
大家好，今天我想和大家分享我对欧缇丽（昵称大葡萄）的皇后水的使用体验。这瓶水现在卖的好火。。。

I got it on beauty.com when they are having a promotion which is like if I spend over $30 I would get a free bottle of this Elixir. Beauty.com has offers like this all the time as long as you sign up on that website, so I highly recommende you check that website out.
我买这瓶水其实没花钱，因为之前 beauty.com 有促销，只要在那个网站花满30刀就可以免费获得一瓶30毫升的皇后水。那个网站非常好用，因为经常会搞活动，满个二三十刀就会送价值快20刀的东西，而且还都是当下蛮流行的东西，喜欢尝试热议产品的朋友可以去看下。

 

Now onto the actual pruduct. The one I got for free contains 1 fluid onze (30ml) and it retails fo $18 in the States. There is also a 3.4 fl. oz. (100ml) one which sells at $49. This mist claims to have their signiture essential oils. It promises to be soothing and gives glowing complexion.

言归正传说产品，这瓶水有30毫升，在美国卖18刀，还有大瓶100毫升的卖49刀。产品宣称加入了品牌主打的精油，可以舒缓并且提亮肌肤。

To me, this is just an okay product. I use it as a toner in the morning after washing my face. The mist tingles my face a little bit when I spritzed it onto my face, so it is pretty awakening. The mist is pretty fine if I spritz it from a distance. However, when I do it pretty closely, it is so strong that the the water that comes out stings my eyes. Plus it has alcohol and peppermint oil, which makes my sensitive skin very uncomfortable sometimes.
快用完一瓶以后，我觉得这水也就是还行，没传说中那么好。我一般早上洗完脸把这个水当化妆水用，喷在脸上的时候感觉凉凉的，满提神的。如果瓶子拿的远些往脸上喷的话感觉喷雾还比较细密，但如果一不小心距离近些的话。。。这水刺激到让我眼睛睁开都觉得眼睛疼。。。因为它含有酒精和薄荷油，所以感觉很舒爽，但是对我这种敏感肌感觉还是比较刺激。

I tried using it after putting on makeup to set my whole face as well. Honestly, I like this way of application better because I feel like with an extra layer of makeup, the alcohol and peppermint oil won't go deeply into my skin and cause sensitivity. However, I have not noticed that it really sets my makeup. To me, it is purely a mist that I use to refresh myself. What's more, after almost done with the bottle, I am pretty sure that it did not make my skin more glowing, and I can't even tell if it is moisturizing. 
我也有试过在化妆完以后喷它，老实说我觉得这样的用法更好些因为觉得隔了层妆薄荷油和酒精就不会跑到我皮肤里去了呵呵。。不过我没感觉这喷雾有定妆效果，也不觉得它很保湿，更没觉得它提亮肤色。对我来说，这瓶东西只是比较舒缓比较醒肤。

In conclusion, the Caudalie Beauty Elixir only soothes my skin and does nothing else. I would not buy it when I am done with this bottle because I think there are so many more mists that are cheaper and better (for example my beloved Kuan Yuan Lian Refreshing Luffa spray). I know that this is a very hot product but I personally don't think it is worth the hype.
总结一下，这瓶水除了舒缓之外没什么别的功效，我觉得用完这瓶之后我不会再买了，因为我觉得有很多比这个便宜比这好用的（比如广源良菜瓜水）。我知道皇后水现在很热，很多人说好用，但我个人意见是觉得这瓶水不值这个价。
