"Dvine is a Portuguese cosmetics brand that was introduced to me very recently, and which I have been testing and loving.
We, women with dark skin, unfortunately and due to the high pigmentation of the skin, have many patches, resulting in a skin that looks less cared and treated. And that's why I've been loving this incredible dynamic duo of Dvine, composed by the Grape floral water facial tonic and Grape power dynamic day emulsion, which are formulated with the exclusive fragrance from the port wine, from the Douro demarcated region. My face became free of spots, my skin is continuously moisturized, fresh, smooth, firm, and with a gloss and super healthy and natural aspect.
Result: A skin clean, hydrated, healthy and with a super natural glow! Obviously this results in the fact that I'm very much in love. "
"I was very happy to know that (finally) Portugal has a line of cosmetics at the level of the best brands of Europe that has won 3 awards: Elle International Beauty Awards 2015, Style Up Beauty Awards 2015 and EmpreenDouro. WOW! Congratulations!
I've been using them since the beginning of the month, and while I did enjoy all the brand, I have the true favourite: Invencible tawny serum lifting and illuminator effect wich is a highly concentrated product, with an unprecedented combination of gold and Organic Oils and Extracts of Grape and Coenzyme Q10, designed to act intensively, helping the skin to reduce the potential irritation and to strengthen the protective barrier , retaining water inside cells.
He has a wonderful filler effect, fine lines virtually disappear since the first application and long-term results, not as long so as only use has a couple of weeks, are amazing. Apply every day alone, before bed and in the morning before the Invencible tawny serum lifting and illuminator effect. I loved it and it was the product of the entire line, I tested, that surprised me most. Definitly the best anti wrinkle I've ever used.
As for the Grape power dynamic day emulsion, with UV filter, presents itself as a delicate combination of extract and Grapeseed Oil, Hyaluronic Acid, Blueberry Extract, with lightening contains an organic emulsifier derived from Olive oil to form gills biocompatible with the skin, coating and protecting, providing a soft, silky touch and an excellent hydration.
Oh, and the whole line is super approved for sensitive skin. "
"The new brand of cosmetics, Dvine, contains formulas infused through a unique fragrance, created from the first port of fully organic production, with plum, cherry, wood chocolate and wild fruits to the mix. Features, which the brand says, are their special nature.
Thus, in a first approximation, I can talk about some points that I like, in particular, the absence of certain ingredients, (some) not being exactly bad, his absence assures me that we're dealing with a luxury product. So, to start, the brand does not test on animals and the products do not have Parabens, petrolatum, paraffin or vaseline, or silicones (among others). The packages are made of paper from sustainable forests and are recycled and the packing of the products itself, is glass with an airless dispenser system, so there are no air inlet or dirty fingers messing up the formulas.
And I have to admit that, look for a box of cosmetics and read "made in Portugal", it makes me a "tad" happy! "
"Finally the brand is the deal and is there with all his might and splendor, thanks to a team of six beautiful women in Portugal. And even more proud to say that are headquartered here at Porto.
The cleansing milk leaves the skin clean, comfortable and without a trace of grease. This milk combined with tonic, which has the same fragrance, acts like a therapy as I find myself using it by the pleasure it brings. For those who do not know the brand, I find them indescribable and incomparable with any other product, I've ever tested with a extremely relaxing beauty aproach!
Currently, Grape floral water facial tonic is at the top of my preferences. It's very refreshing, assures a luminous skin and a more uniform and balanced tonus. Of the three products that I have tested, is th one who really got me and all I can think about is counting down to the end of the bottle (It shouldn't finish). "

"Recently a lesser known brand came to my attention. Skincare from Duoro Valley in Portugal. The Douro Valley is a monumental landscape that combines man’s work and nature in it’s pure state. It stands out by its geographical, climatic and mesological features, so private and unique, that irreproducibly come together for the cultivation of olives, almonds, cherries, figs, grapes and… most important of all Wines.
According to the company’s concept and mission, they explore and take advantage of the natural resources of the Douro region, known for its vineyards, grapes and wines varieties, sources proven to be rich in phenolic antioxidant compounds, with anti-aging properties. The scientific activity of Douro Skincare focuses on the antioxidant potential of bioactive flavonoids, naturally present in varieties of grapes native of the Douro.
I trialled the Light Harvest line: Grape Floral Water Facial Tonic and Grape Power Dynamic Day Emulsion which focuses on radiance, that combines grape derivatives with a combination of natural extract. Dvine skincare products are manufactured complying with all the requirements of the EU Cosmetic Regulation.
Grape Floral Water Facial Tonic Claims: Tightens the pores, tones, calms and purifies the skin by removing impurities from the skin’s surface that remained after the first cleansing step. I perceive it as basic, effective, calming mist, or as second tone after acid. The scent is very peculiar of grape flavored bubble gum and packaged in simple see through plastic bottle with a lid. I went ahead and added a spritzer to make daily use simpler.
Moving onto Grape Power Dynamic Day Emulsion Claims: An anti-aging day care that stimulates the natural processes of skin’s repair and renewal, preserving its beauty and youth. I used under makeup and didn’t make my face oily. Makeup stayed put, no slipping and sliding. Didn’t experience absorption of excess sebum, however shine and excess oil production was under control. The scent is quite pleasant. The texture is not as runny as typical emulsion, but more like a thicker lotion. The tiniest bit goes a long way and absorbs well in skin. Some days I have applied dual layer and haven’t noticed any piling."

"I have regularly used these products in my routine and I like it a lot. It's really a very well thought-out line, with good ingredients and suitable for sensitive skin. The Grape water cleansing gel is already one of my favorite cleaning products for sensitive skin. The Grape floral water facial tonic is a very light product, but does make a difference, by closing the pores and soothe the skin. It is especially great for those with large pores. The emulsion has been my day moisturizer chosen to use after my vitamin C serum and before my sunscreen. I love the fact that even with this hot and very humid climate it does not leave the skin shiny nor sticky. And is rich in antioxidants, which to me is essential to a good moisturizer. And for this same fact, is rich in flavonoids, catechins, anthocyanins, resveratrol, the skin becomes more bright and pretty and prevents skin aging. Because I don't want to just moisturize the skin, I also want to protect her from future damage. "
