cuidate and cuidese both mean the same thing: take care. but cuidate is used when you're speaking to a friend. and cuidese is used when you're speaking with an adult because its formal.

I suppose you're asking about the difference between "cuídate" and "cuídese", right? OK... The main difference is the level of formality:

a) You use "Cuídate" when you want to say "take care" to a friend (In example: 'Cuídate Lucy')

b) You use "Cuídese" when you are saying "Take care of yourself" in a formal way. (In example: 'Por favor, cuídese Señor Rodriguez')

Spanish is my mother tongue, so, you can trust me.

te is informal-like if you're talking to friends, se is formal-like if you're talking to a teacher. Most of the time it doesn't matter,you'll be understood, but some people will get offended if you speak to them informally.
