Grape

L’OCCITANE’s grape range draws its inspiration from a 100-year old Provençal tradition: the grape cure.

Rich in minerals and organic acids, grape has a balancing effect on the body. Its vitamin-replenishing action is beneficial to nerve and muscle performance. Its rich polyphenol content helps to protect the cardiovascular system. Finally, it contains fibers that have a stimulating effect on the digestive system.

Traceability

L'OCCITANE selected 2 active ingredients from grapes from Provence: grape juice and red vine leaf extract.

We chose to work with a family farm located near Ansouis, next to Manosque which has been producing organic grapes for more than 20 years.

L’OCCITANE developed a red vine leaf extract using vines from Puyloubier and Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt, in Provence.

Harvesting takes place at the end of August. The organic grape juice is pressed from high-quality black grapes (Muscat and Lavallée varieties) and its organic status guarantees that it is free of pesticides, insecticides, and chemical fertilizers.

Did you know ?
L'OCCITANE employees in France, Switzerland and Hong Kong tried out the grape cure for themselves so that they could sample the experience! One ton of organic grapes and 100 liters or organic grape juice were consumed, and many said they would gladly do it again. Why don't you try it?

Effectiveness

The Grape range is made with complementary active ingredients:

  • Organic grape juice from Provence, rich in vitamins, calcium and potassium (revitalizing)
  • Red vine leaf extract, rich in polyphenols (to stimulate drainage)
  • Grape-seed oil, rich in vitamin E (nourishing)
  • Grape-seed powder (exfoliating)
