Grape
L’OCCITANE’s grape range draws its inspiration from a 100-year
old Provençal tradition: the grape cure
Recognized as one of the most effective natural therapies, the grape cure consists of eating grapes exclusively for several days to deeply cleanse and revitalize the body, which is often worn out by rich food and a non-stop lifestyle.

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.
Effectiveness
The Grape range is made with complementary active ingredients:

- Red vine leaf extract, rich in polyphenols (to stimulate drainage)
