City Pulse

By Anne Jones

I’m pleased as punch to live in a time when wine is “good for you” again. Of course, I tend to use my own personal definition of exactly how much is good for me from time to time. My occasional overindulgences can make for a fabulous soiree the eve before but wreak havoc on my poor face the next morning. Thirsty skin, poufy eyes (someone please fetch me my sleep mask)!

Listen up, babycakes, there’s a chance you won’t be cursing the vino in the morning thanks to Davi.

For all of us oenophiles and beauty junkies in the house, raise the roof. Wine and skincare have hooked up to make this fabulous new skincare line, Davi. Carlos Mondavi (as in my Granddaddy Warbucks is Robert Mondavi) has used his expertise of fruits of the vine and put the goodness into an ultra luxe skincare line that contains antioxidants found in grape seed oil and fermented grape extracts. They use a double fermentation process that is preserved until applied to the skin. Translation: this 26-year-old granddaddy’s boy has created a pricey but priceless product with a daily dose of that oh-so-good-for-you vino.

The line consists of a lotion, toner, and Le Grand Cru anti-aging cream. Not to worry gents, Davi makes a masculine skin care line for you boy-toys along with sexy shaving cream and aftershave.

Just in case you need an excuse to peruse Bergdorf’s, Davi is being sold there exclusively for their debut year. Not to worry, mon amie, if you can’t find time to strut through the store, you can purchase the goods on the website as well. Viva la vino!
