Friday 23 September 2022 09:53 AM Brad Pitt's pricey new skincare suffers gaffe as it boasts the products ... trends now
Brad Pitt has launched a skincare range using grapes from his vineyards in Provence, with wine and skin experts drafted in to determine the most anti-ageing.
But Le Domaine's new website has suffered an awkward blunder as the website boasted that the products contain 'no conservatives'.
The amusing gaffe has since been corrected to read the correct statement that the products contain 'no preservatives'.

Presumably, the error came from a poor translation, as 'preservatif' means condom in French.
Before being amended, the statement read: 'We carefully chose our ingredients and have established a very strict blacklist excluding ingredients that are subject to controversy regarding the environment or the natural balance of the body.
'NO Conservatives such as parabens, phenoxyethanol, MIT, triclosan, chlorphenesin, BHA & BHT.'
The brand has debuted three 'inclusive' - and very pricey - skincare products that are made with olive oil from Chateau Miraval, the French vineyard and castle he purchased with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie in 2012.

The Cleansing Emulsion costs $80, while the serum is priced at a staggering $385 and the cream costs $320. A fluid cream, which is launching next year, will also be available to buy for $310.
The products include 'potent properties' from the seeds of grapes grown at a vineyard owned by Brad's partners at Miraval, and all of which are aimed at providing users with their very own Benjamin Button-esque results.
'Le Domaine wants to help slow the process of skin aging and give everyone, regardless of gender or skin type, the opportunity to age well,' the website says of its four products.
Still, Brad insists that he 'doesn't want to be running from aging', telling Vogue that it is 'a concept we can't escape', and claiming that the idea of 'anti-aging' is a 'ridiculous... fairytale'.

'But what is real is treating your skin in a healthy manner. And it's something I've learnt to do for my business, but it kinda makes you feel better,' he went on.
Speaking about his skincare range, Brad added: 'The goal is to imitate the organic cycles of nature, its primeval beauty. There is no waste in nature.
'Anything left over or discarded becomes food for something else. This exemplary circular system is the inspiration for Le Domaine.'
He did confess that he has not always had the best skincare habits, but noted that when it came to launching Le Domaine, he sought inspiration from someone who helped to encourage healthier beauty habits early on in his career: ex-girlfriend Gwyneth Paltrow.

'I love what Gwyneth's done [with Goop],' Brad - who dated Gwyneth for three years, from 1994 to 1997 - gushed. 'She is still a really dear friend, and she has built this empire.
'She has always had that in her as a curator, and it's been a lovely creative outlet
