Cream Vichy liftactive retinol reviews

The cream is excellent, I can’t even believe that there are so many negative reviews here. It lies on the face softly, is quickly absorbed, without leaving an oily sheen, the skin is velvety after the first night of use, the color has improved, I will take more. I have sensitive combination skin and there was no redness or burning after using the cream. But I buy this cream at the pharmacy from official suppliers in order to avoid counterfeits. I recommend this cream!

Excellent cream! Absorbs quickly, but at the same time nourishes well!

Reviews of pharmacy cosmetics

Zavalova Oksana Ivanovo | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: I took the first balm 2 years ago, and I still use it because I like it, but not for frequent use.
“Blueberry” is no different from “Pomegranate”, the aroma is weak and gives almost no taste.
In terms of action, these balms are useless for lips. Well, I don’t know why this is so, they really don’t mean anything to me. They don’t help with wounds or cracks, although my lips constantly crack and dry like panties on a line in windy weather. And to help heal wounds and opened pimples on the face, they are ideal! The balm is ready to pray))
Well, due to the nutritional effect, you can treat dryness on the face with targeted application. Suitable for the body too, elbows, cuticles, calluses, it will fix everything))

Zavalova Oksana Ivanovo | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: I don’t have problem skin, but the cream is just great!)) It moisturizes perfectly and is an excellent option for day care.
Does not overload, does not make the skin greasy. Well, it mattifies, it’s natural for a moisturizer)

Zavalova Oksana Ivanovo | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: Overall, the gel is good. It cleans super well, just what you need for oily skin. But something needs to be done about the aroma. The alcohol at first overshadows everything, and when it foams, it releases and coffee appears, quite fresh and pleasant.
For natural cosmetics, strong cleansing is common, so I probably don’t recommend it for dry skin. Well, the smell. not disgusting, just strange, this has never happened before

Zavalova Oksana Ivanovo | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: As a set - a great idea! You can’t find this anywhere else than at Pharmcosmetik))
I bought the set because of the mask, because I’ve already tried it and love it with all my heart)) it really moisturizes and most importantly, it works alone. It’s really better not to mix it with anything (except thermal water), but I think in winter it will be rather weak.
The cream was somewhat disappointing, I thought it would be better. It is not suitable for dehydrated skin, it is not absorbed very well, or it is absorbed, but a greasy residue is still felt on the skin, do not use it during the day or under makeup ((

Zavalova Oksana Ivanovo | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: It’s not a bad tint, it hardens quickly, and when blended with a light layer it can streak, but this can be easily fixed in a second.
The only drawback is that the longevity is short, 3 hours maximum.

Zavalova Oksana Ivanovo | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: Amazing lip balm!! nourishes, moisturizes, cares, protects. And even with SPF15.
Pharmfoxmetik costs pennies, so I want to buy the other 2 from the series, I hope they won’t disappoint you as well))

Zavalova Oksana Ivanovo | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: I chose these out of three jars from Ayoume that were interesting to me, and I can so far say that I don’t see any effect from them at all. As for the patches and after, the skin does not receive hydration or at least an hour-long visual effect (I don’t count on a cumulative one). Apparently, we should have taken the black ones after all.

Julia Tomsk | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: I've been using this mask for two weeks and my hair looks better. They were very porous, after the mask they became smoother and shiny. In general, I liked the mask, the consumption is not high.

Genbach Natalia Aramovna Saratov | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: working version of peeling
Suitable for problem skin, cleanses pores well
a bit expensive
For me personally, it was a surprise that I had to wash my face after using them, I initially thought that they acted like an acidic lotion, but overall I was pleased with the use, I think I’ll repeat them, or I’ll go broke on obagi

Anna Moscow | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: Tired of washing my hair every day! By the end of the day, oiliness appeared. Yes, by the middle of the day they did not look very fresh. A friend recommended Aleran shampoo for oily and combination hair. And it turns out you don’t need to wash your hair every day! Now I can walk calmly for 2 days at a time, and for me this is a record! I recommend.

Zenina Elena Volgograd | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: I've been using this peel for a while now. Kiwi smells very tasty, the skin is very soft after using it. I won’t say that my skin has become lighter, I have pigmentation, but it’s definitely fresher. The consumption is quite small.

Koshel Inna Krasnodar | 07/16/2019 |

Conclusions: The mask is really restorative, I recommend it, it can be used as a cream, the skin is soft

Criteria for choosing the best cream after 40

Is there an anti-aging cream? The marketer will answer “yes”! The cosmetologist will honestly say “no”. Unfortunately, not a single cream is able to prevent the aging of the body and completely eliminate wrinkles that have already appeared. However, products in jars and tubes can also do a lot, and Price Expert assures that effective skin care for people over 40 still exists.

Required Ingredients

A good cream after 40 years should have a fairly strong effect - reduce wrinkles, improve blood circulation, lighten age spots, give the skin intense hydration and nutrition. The action of familiar components that successfully helped the skin at 30 or 35 years old, such as panthenol, betaine, vitamins A, C, E, hyaluronic acid, natural oils, enzymes (coenzyme Q10) and plant extracts, is no longer enough. Stronger substances come to the aid of aging skin:

1. proteins (protein compounds):collagen, elastin, keratin, etc.. You need to know an important feature: pure collagen cannot be “rubbed” into the skin. Creams containing collagen will, at best, moisturize the skin. For mature skin, look not for collagen itself, but for its derivatives, for example, amino acids that can penetrate the skin more deeply;
2. peptides (oligopeptides, tripeptides, pentapeptides, polypeptides, matrixyl, etc.) are also protein derivatives that have a pronounced rejuvenating effect, can penetrate deep into the skin and have a beneficial effect on the vital activity of cells. They stimulate the production of its own collagen, and this is exactly what skin over 40 needs. However, the capabilities and side effects of peptides have not yet been fully studied;
3. retinoids - synthetic derivatives of vitamin A. If up to 40 cosmetologists advise using retinoids in very limited quantities, now the time has come for their active use. These substances cause skin cells to renew themselves faster, eliminate pigmentation and give the visual effect of “filling out” wrinkles. The most popular retinoids: retinol, tretinoin (retinoic acid), retinol palmitate, retinaldehyde, Adapalene, Tazarotene, but it is likely that this list will soon be updated with new, even more effective substances. Today, peptides and retinoids are the most effective (but also the least studied) “additives” to creams after 40 years.

Manufacturers of face creams after 40 years

Almost all well-known cosmetics brands offer their “youth technologies”. The price of a 50 ml jar of anti-aging cream can vary from 200 to 10-15 thousand rubles!

However, we should not forget that the final benefit of the product is determined not by the price, but by the positive changes that the skin experiences from using the cream. If you can’t imagine skin care without luxury products, then creams from Clarins, Guerlain, Estee Lauder, Lancome, Chanel, Sisley, Magigrey, etc. will come to the rescue. But at a high cost, many of them suffer from the lack of sun protection and “canning” » packaging – beautiful, but unhygienic.

In comparison with expensive luxury products, more affordable and quite effective mass-market creams from the brands Olay, Loreal, Neutrogina, Garnier have proven themselves to be quite good. Russian companies: Black Pearl, Natura Siberica and others also have their own developments in the field of rejuvenation and use the latest achievements in cosmetology. They are joined by inexpensive, but also noteworthy creams from Vitex (especially the professional series). These products are much cheaper than imported products, but whether they are better or worse, only your skin can answer.

But perhaps the most effective for mature skin are the pharmacy lines of face creams from Avene, RoC, La Roche Posae, Vichy, Kora, and Evalar. They differ from store-bought cosmetics: the most serious research base, the latest components in the composition (the same peptides and retinoids are found in almost every pharmacy cream), hypoallergenicity, and almost always the presence of a good SPF and PPA factor.

Vichy Liftactiv Retinol HA cream fights the first wrinkles!

Like any “strong” cream, Vichy Liftactive can either be ideal for the skin or not suit it at all. But if your skin likes this cream, then it risks becoming your favorite skin care product!

1. rapid improvement in skin condition;

3. dispenser

Minuses:

2. The manufacturer claims UV protection, but does not indicate the exact SPF factor.

Typical reviews of Expert Black Pearl cream after 46 years:

“The cream really perfectly moisturizes the skin, the next morning there is no feeling of tightness, even after washing. Due to this, the face looks younger and the skin appears elastic.”

“I didn’t expect that domestic products could have such an effect. The cream is very light, not greasy, similar to whipped cream. The skin becomes well-groomed, as if glowing from within, but the wrinkles remain.”

So which cream should you choose after 40 years?

After 40, skin after 40 is no longer simply nourished and moisturized, so new, more effective, but also more expensive ingredients come to the aid of women. But you can find a suitable cream that successfully fights skin aging and allows it to maintain elasticity and smoothness in any price category, as our small, but hopefully useful, rating proves. Happy purchasing!
