In the lush gardens of Trinidad, a young girl’s dreams blossomed among the flowers, eventually growing into CDF Skincare – Champ de Fleurs, meaning “field of flowers” in French.
Founded by Ginger-vee Carter, this luxury skincare line brings the healing touch of Caribbean botanicals to beauty routines worldwide.
The inspiration behind CDF Skincare runs deep in Carter’s island roots. As a child in Trinidad, she witnessed her mother’s entrepreneurial spirit turn simple resources – a cooler filled with beverages and ice – into a thriving business. Meanwhile, Carter found solace in her mother’s flower garden, where she envisioned creating natural skincare solutions that would honor both women’s beauty and her Caribbean heritage.
Today, CDF Skincare embodies that vision through its commitment to pure, plant-based formulations.
Each product in the collection harnesses the power of organic and wild-crafted ingredients to address common skincare concerns like blemishes, excess oil, and dryness – all without harsh chemicals or synthetic additives.
The brand’s dedication to natural beauty extends beyond its formulas to embrace environmental responsibility. Every aspect of packaging tells this story, from compostable sorghum starch peanuts to biodegradable vegetable tape and recyclable boxes. This attention to sustainability reflects Carter’s holistic approach to skincare and environmental stewardship.
CDF Skincare’s commitment to clean beauty is evident in what you won’t find in their products. The brand strictly avoids controversial ingredients like parabens, sulfates, mineral oil, and formaldehyde-releasing preservatives. Instead, their collection of 14 products – including facial scrubs, creams, cleansers, bar soaps, and their signature Charcoal Corrector Mask – relies on nature’s pure ingredients.
While the price points reflect the premium quality of ingredients used, customers report that products last significantly longer than expected with proper storage and use. For instance, a single 4-ounce jar of facial scrub can provide up to six months of regular use.
CDF Skincare offers more than just skincare – it’s an invitation to experience the therapeutic traditions of the Caribbean islands through thoughtfully crafted, natural formulations.
Each product tells a story of heritage, sustainability, and effective plant-based skincare, bringing a touch of tropical paradise to your daily beauty ritual.
For those seeking artisanal skincare that combines luxury with environmental consciousness, CDF Skincare provides an authentic island-inspired experience – no passport required. Their targeted solutions for various skin concerns come with the added benefit of supporting a woman-owned business deeply rooted in cultural tradition and environmental responsibility.
