For the skin around the eyes
For the skin around the eyes Vichy March 2, 2012
I was very dissatisfied with the Aqualia Antiox eye roller. It does not remove bags and the skin under the eyes dries out. I am 40 years old and did not have wrinkles under my eyes, but it dried out my skin so much that they have now appeared. In general, these cosmetics are not worth the money, I myself am a pharmacy worker and I will tell you honestly that customer reviews are mostly bad for all Vichy products.
For the skin around the eyes Vichy April 10, 2011
I just recently discovered this site!! A very useful thing!! Now on to the point.
A couple of years ago, I decided to switch from consumer goods (in the good sense of the word) to more expensive, and probably higher quality, cosmetics. Upon arrival at the pharmacy, the Vichy brand was offered. I decided to try it. Disappointed:(( Aqualia Thermal face cream - no way, although my skin is not picky. What I applied, what not. I had to apply another cream to moisturize. Although the skin is not dry, rather the opposite. Then, on the advice of the sellers, I bought an eye gel with The video is also aqualia - what it is, what it is not. I didn’t feel the effect. It’s a pity, it’s not cheap. Although it didn’t blow my budget, I would still have found somewhere to put this money:(((
Hello, my dear readers! I know that many of you are looking for the perfect product for delicate eyelid skin. Of course, each brand can boast of something of its own. But today I want to tell you what Vichy eye cream is + I’ll provide reviews.
I have already written in detail about Vichy Ideal cream for dark circles. In this same article I wanted to tell you about the most, most effective remedy. But it turned out that there are several types of them. Each of them has a specific purposeful effect.
The main problem that skin faces over time is dehydration. And all because the barrier function of the epidermis is disrupted. And even if you had oily skin in your youth, dryness may appear over time. Fortunately, there are products for the skin around the eyes from Vichy. They not only moisturize thin skin, but also smooth out wrinkles. I will go through each product in detail, describe the active ingredients, how to use it and reviews from those who have tried it.
For eye contour SUPREME
This cosmetic “miracle” for the eyelids perfectly helps against wrinkles + copes wonderfully with swelling and bluish circles under the eyes. It nourishes the delicate skin of the eyelids and softens it.
SUPREME, cream care for the skin around the eyes, Vichy
Vichy Liftactive SUPREME is a hypoallergenic product. It contains no parabens or other harmful additives. This cream can be safely used even when caring for sensitive skin.
Main components of natural origin:
- 5% rhamnose - monosaccharide of plant origin. This component has a positive effect on dermal resources. Ramnose is involved in the renewal of the epidermis. Produces elastin and collagen, which increases the density of the skin around the eyes.
- Thermal - has strengthening and restorative properties. Read more about Vichy SPA thermal water in my article about Vichy thermal water.
- Caffeine - this component has a drainage and tonic effect. Helps fight dark circles under the eyes.
Vichy Liftactive SUPREME is a non-greasy and non-sticky cream. It has a light, pleasant texture.
Apply this cosmetic product twice a day: in the morning and evening. Pre-clean your eyelids with a special cleanser, such as micellar water. Apply just a little bit at a time along the bone. Do not go into the moving eyelid.
Those who have tried this product on themselves have noted a positive result. The face became fresher and more well-groomed, and the skin became moisturized. Bags and bruises under the eyes disappear.
But some girls note slight itching and redness after using this cream. Essentially, it's an allergy. An unpleasant phenomenon, I agree.
I suggest you read the reviews yourself. They will tell you a lot.
Marishka: This is an amazing tool! I have tried so many things to combat dark circles under my eyes and wrinkles. This cream is better than all the others. It really works. Within a month, my skin became like that of a twenty-year-old. And this despite the fact that I’m already 35!
Nastya: My eyelids stopped swelling, the bruises disappeared, and my crow's feet smoothed out. In general, I have very sensitive eyes. As soon as I smear myself with something, an allergic reaction immediately occurs. But this cream is just super.
On my own behalf, I also want to advise you something. Do not apply cream to the delicate skin around your eyes before going to bed. Apply the product 1, or even better, 2 hours before bedtime. Otherwise you will get swelling. This has been verified from my own experience 🙂
So if you apply cream to your eyelids 5 minutes before bed, don't complain. The next morning it may even feel like you spent the night in a hive with angry bees 🙂 Yes, the product only works if it is used correctly. Otherwise, the cream will nourish not the skin, but the pillow. By the way, you will find my article useful on how to properly apply eye cream.
ARTICLES ON THE TOPIC:
Serum Serum 10
How is this tool different? It not only smoothes out wrinkles, but also moisturizes delicate skin + helps strengthen eyelashes. Serum 10 copes even with deep wrinkles, so it can be used even after 40 years.
Serum for a youthful look, Vichy
According to the manufacturer, after a month, visible wrinkles are smoothed out by 27%. And the eyelashes are restored.
Vichy Liftactive Serum 10 is the only product that can be applied to the moving eyelid
According to reviews, many girls use it after eyelash extensions. My dears, I have not tried eyelash extensions myself. But I realized that this remedy works well.
This serum contains no parabens. The following active components are present here:
- 10% rhamnose - stimulates the production of your own elastin and collagen. Due to this, the density of the skin increases;
- Ceramides - in fact, it is intercellular “cement”;
- Hyaluronic acid — this component moisturizes the skin and helps accelerate collagen synthesis;
- VICHY SPA thermal bath - has a calming, restorative and strengthening effect;
- Reflective particles — they give the look youth and openness.
The cosmetic product can be used even when caring for sensitive skin. It is hypoallergenic. The serum has been tested and this product is absolutely safe.
Use Serum 10 twice a day. Apply to thoroughly cleansed eyelid skin. Squeeze a small drop of serum onto your fingertip. Close your eye. Apply to entire surface. Do not stretch the skin under any circumstances. Movements should be light and gentle: from the inner corner of the eye to the outer. Then use your index fingers to slightly lift your eyelashes (make it look like you're curling them).
On top of this serum you can apply Vichy LiftActiv Retinol HA. Eye contour cream perfectly combats bags under the eyes and dry skin. Let me remind you once again about the time of application - it is better to apply the product a couple of hours before bedtime. Then the wrinkles will disappear, the eyelashes will be transformed, and the look will become radiant.
What do those who use this product say? I suggest you read some reviews.
Yana: I apply this serum daily, but not twice a day, but only once. I alternate this product with Vichy Idealia. I'm satisfied with the effect. In general, I really like Serum 10 serum. It has a soft gel-like texture. The product applies very well and there is no greasy feeling left after application. And what eyelashes I have now! I never dreamed of such things)))
Marusya: This is the second time I have ordered this miracle product. For me this is a real find. After eyelash extensions, this serum helped me a lot. The eyelashes were completely restored within a month. I also like that it doesn’t sting my eyes.
Lina: I have been using Vishy Liftactive SERUM 10 relatively recently. But I noticed that the condition of my eyelashes and eyelids had improved. Even my husband saw improvements))
Aqualia Thermal Awakening Balm
This product moisturizes delicate skin, helping to get rid of dark circles and bags under the eyes. The balm will make your look rested and fresh. Aqualia Thermal also has an anti-edematous effect.
Judging by the statement of the Vichy brand, the balm can be used from the age of 25. But there is no upper limit. Essentially, this product is recommended based on the biological condition of the skin.
Eyes are an important element of our body. In women, this area shows its true age before anyone else, and therefore, all over the world, the beautiful half of humanity is trying to combat this problem with various creams.
At the moment, the top best is Vichy eye cream.
Why you need to take care of the skin around your eyes
In order for the skin to remain tightened as long as possible, it is necessary to take care of this area already in youth, starting from the age of 20.
The peak, when hormonal changes begin in a woman’s body, is considered to be at the age of 40. Depending on individual characteristics, for some they begin earlier, for others later.
At a more mature age, women need truly effective means with which they can provide complete care. Important condition! Not a single cream will produce results if the effect on the skin is not regular.
If you neglect your skin from youth, then wrinkles will begin to appear in the near future. First, what they call “crow’s feet” appear, which subsequently become deeper and deeper.
In addition, the woman experiences drooping of the upper eyelid, and dark circles and bruises form around the eyes. Only quality care can fix this.
It is much more difficult to deal with wrinkles that have already appeared; it is much easier to use products at a young age as a preventive measure and to tone thin skin.
The Vichy company has been pleasing women with its quality products for many years. Thanks to this, it is ranked among the best and offers effective products for caring for this delicate area.
Cosmetics are produced starting from 25 years and above. At the same time, the line is periodically expanded, all that remains is to observe the new products and test their effectiveness.
Currently, Vichy offers several options for caring for the eye area:
- Vichy eye cream for wrinkle correction – Myokine.
- Eye cream – Lift active pro.
- A comprehensive product that has a rejuvenating effect for lips and eyes – Neovadiol contours.
- Eye contour cream – Liftactiv derm source.
- A product designed to restore the eye contour - Vichy Idealia Eyes.
All these products are considered effective in their field and delight their owners. Such an effect certainly occurs due to the unique composition.

Which option will you choose?
It can be really difficult to choose the most suitable one from such a number of products.
When choosing, you need to focus on your skin type and what goals you are pursuing. A very important criterion is the age category of the woman.
Age and corresponding options:
- 25-30 years old. This is the best age to invest in what comes next. Proper care in youth allows you to preserve the natural data of nature much longer. You need to choose products that will help moisturize your skin. It is during this period that a woman stops producing collagen in the amount that is necessary. The option should be easy and only have a supporting effect.
- After 40 years, a woman should purchase more serious options that will help cope with already obvious age-related changes. A nourishing cream containing hyaluronic acid, collagen, vitamins, and oils is suitable.
- People over 50 years old require creams with a thicker texture. They will actively nourish the skin and will be able to tighten sagging eyelid skin. The composition should contain components such as collagen and retinol. They are the ones who are able to cope with existing problems at this age.
Any woman should understand that Vichy cream can really help with problems with this delicate area, but it is not capable of working miracles.
To keep your skin healthy, fresh and beautiful for as long as possible, you need to wear protective glasses, be less stressed and use products that will protect against sun exposure.
Also, from the age of 20, it is necessary to carry out various care procedures; various face creams from the Vichy company are also suitable for this.
