Grapes as an ingredient in a beauty product? Really?

Now don’t get me wrong. I like grapes. As a matter of fact, it’s one of my favorite fruits. So when I was invited to cover the launch of Watson’s latest beauty product GrapeBella, I instantly said yes.

I have actually seen GrapeBella in Watsons for quite some time now. I’ve always wanted to try it but since I still have unconsumed bottles of lotion and other beauty products at home, I said I’d buy it next time.

The launch was held inside SM Makati’s beauty section. Hosted by food and wine enthusiast Ines Cabarrus, the launch showcased the different beauty products of GrapeBella.

Named after its main ingredient and the Italian word for beautiful, Watsons GrapeBella contains wine extracts from French grapes that are naturally rich in protective antioxidants. Its regenerative Grape Seed Oil moisturizes to help prevent the signs of aging for soft, smooth skin.

With that in mind, many are beginning to discover the many benefits of grapes to our health and skin.

“It has been discovered that a glass of wine a day is good for the health. The reason? Grapes! Grape juice has always been a fantastic natural source of antioxidants, and when it comes to beauty, grape extracts have been known to reduce wrinkles, reduce acne, and give skin a youthful glow among other things,” explains sommelier Ines Cabarrus.

“The launch of Watsons GrapeBella in the Philippines showcases the kind of high-quality, pocket-friendly products that Watsons consistently offers,” said Victoria H. Encarnacion, Watsons Marketing & Dept Store Business Unit Director.

GrapeBella’s head-to-toe range of premier skin products targets your whole skin from tip to toe for a complete, effective regimen.

So try one today and feed your skin with the goodness that grapes can offer only through Watsons GrapeBella.
