Vichy liftactive customer reviews

Greetings, dear readers of my blog! Recently I overheard a conversation between two friends in a pharmacy. One second valiantly proved how harmful and dangerous Vichy cosmetics are and somehow even affects hormonal levels. I could not ignore such a heated discussion. And I asked the girl if she herself had used these products. It turns out not. This is how myths and legends are made. Although Vichy cosmetics themselves are of very high quality - customer reviews prove this.

Therefore, today I decided to tell you about the history of the creation of the Vichy company. And figure out whether hormonal cosmetics are used or not.

History of the Vichy company

Vichy cosmetics received its name in honor of the French resort town of the same name. This city became famous back in the Middle Ages for its healing water. But it gained fame as a resort only under Henry IV: the town turned into a court residence. From that moment on, Vichy became a favorite place for restoration of health among the French aristocracy.

The history of the brand itself dates back to 1931. Dr. Aller, who was studying thermal water from springs near Vichy, noticed an amazing feature. After water procedures, his patients experienced an increase in the rate of wound healing. Moreover, the skin was calmed and restored. This know-how later became known under the Vichy brand.

Since 1955, Vichy cosmetic products have been sold exclusively in pharmacies. When developing products, Vichy specialists used technologies borrowed from the medical field. In 1969, a factory for the production of cosmetic products was built near the springs.

Vichy cosmetics - reviews from cosmetologists and customers

The effectiveness of this brand's products has been repeatedly tested by time. Not a single generation has been using Vichy cosmetics, so the “reputation” of cosmetics is formed objectively. I noticed that the reviews from both cosmetologists and ordinary users are only positive. Yes, you can see this for yourself.

Regina: I wouldn’t trade Vichy for anything. I've been using it for over 10 years. I’m a little over 30. When I first started using cosmetics, there were wrinkles on my forehead and the bridge of my nose. Now they are gone. I completed 2 courses of therapy using cosmetics with retinol. And now I use Oligo 25 and Ideal. The effect is amazing. Despite the fact that I gave birth twice. This cosmetics is just super!

Masha: If you are negligent about your health and nutrition, no Vichy product will help. Of course, I use this cosmetics, but I also pay a lot of attention to nutrition. I used to have terribly problematic skin. As soon as I ate something, the next day a “rose” always appeared on my face. There was no longer any strength to fight it. I decided to review my diet. In addition, I switched to this cosmetics. Overall, I'm very pleased with the result.

Tanya: I have been using Vichy cosmetics for more than 7 years. I got my sisters and friends hooked on it))) During this time, only one person actually had an allergy to the product. Well, no one is immune from this. But rumors about hormonality just infuriate me. Haven't you come up with anything smarter? The ignorance of those who spread such rumors is so annoying.

Alina: I gave my mother Vichy anti-aging cream. I'm shocked! She's lost 10 years. Although the price is high, the result is worth it.

And here's a video review:

Active components of products

The main “ingredient” of all Vichy brand products is thermal water. This is a natural component for the beauty and health of the skin. The thermal bath is known for its unique composition. Potassium, iron, silicon, calcium, manganese, etc. are present here. Thanks to its wonderful composition, the thermal bath has a strengthening, soothing and regenerating effect on the skin.

In general, friends, natural thermal water cannot be reproduced in laboratory conditions. Its composition is unique and inimitable. Read more about thermal water in my article about Vichy thermal water.

As for the other components, they vary greatly. It all depends on the products being manufactured. Each series has its own set of “ingredients”.

Thus, Vichy cosmetics for young skin consist of thermal baths and softening components. The age series contains moisturizing substances that stimulate the production of the skin's own collagen. But anti-aging products contain antioxidants. But all Vichy series are enriched with vitamins A, C and E.

Features of cosmetics

Vichy cosmetics are the first brand of dermocosmetics sold in pharmacies. In addition, this product is one of the ten popular brands of the L’Oreal concern.

According to doctors and cosmetologists, Vichy cosmetics are unique. Judge for yourself!

1. All products are certified. This procedure guarantees the quality of the purchased products
2. All cosmetic products are based on thermal water.
3. All cosmetics are hypoallergenic
4. Vichy cosmetics are tested on sensitive skin

Honestly, for my sensitive skin, Vichy dermocosmetics are the only salvation. Yes, it will not cure internal diseases that cause skin problems. But in combination with properly selected treatment and a balanced diet, such cosmetics simply work wonders. Tested on myself 🙂

Myths about the Vichy company and products

There are so many myths around Vichy products. I have listed the most common of them in this section. Let's debunk the myths about Vichy cosmetics together.

1. Myth 1 — Products are tested on animals
2. Since 1989, L'Oreal has voluntarily stopped testing cosmetic products on animals. All preclinical testing is conducted in vitro on Episkin skin tissue culture. In other words, human skin is created in the laboratory and cosmetics are tested on it. And in March 2009, an EU directive came into force prohibiting the testing of chemical ingredients on animals.
3. Myth 2 - Hormonal cosmetics
4. Vichy cosmetics are non-hormonal. According to Russian legislation, the use of hormones in cosmetics has been prohibited since 1998. And besides, this product is not addictive.
5. Myth 3 - Cannot be used during pregnancy
6. Naturally, no one tested the products on pregnant women: this is prohibited. But Vichy products are dermocosmetics. During pregnancy and lactation, products of this brand are preferable because they are hypoallergenic. In addition, Vichy cosmetics are intended for external use. The components do not penetrate into the bloodstream or breast milk, so there is no threat to mother and baby.

1. Myth 4 - Vichy remedies are addictive
2. As long as you use cosmetics, of course you see noticeable results. When you stop using it, the skin returns to its original state. This pattern is typical for any cosmetics. Don’t expect to smear yourself a couple of times and, like in a fairy tale, walk around young all your life. Skin needs constant care
3. Myth 5 - The composition contains scary components 🙂
4. All products meet high international standards, including Russian safety standards. I don’t know what components the girls wrote about here. No matter how much I looked at the composition, I didn’t notice anything malicious.

The main goal of professionals developing Vichy products is to improve the condition of the skin, and not just to disguise defects. And judging by customer reviews, the Vichy brand copes with this task perfectly.

The company does not produce a universal cosmetic series for all skin types. It is simply impossible to create such a product, because each skin type has its own characteristics. But it is quite possible to make a cream that would solve the problems of a certain skin type. And Vishy copes with this perfectly. This is such an excellent company 🙂

Vichy's main product series

1. Cleansing. This includes the Purete Thermale line - cleansing foams, micellar and other makeup removers. They gently cleanse the skin without disturbing its natural protective barrier. In addition, these cosmetics tone the skin and activate cellular respiration.
2. Hair care. This series presents medicinal products for the scalp and hair. Various anti-dandruff shampoos, hair thickening shampoos, balms and other dermal products. The most important thing in this line is Dercos Aminexil anti-hair loss ampoules and Dercos Neogenic hair growth ampoules.

1. Facial care. The Normaderm series is excellent for problem skin: cosmetics fight acne and other blemishes. For particularly sensitive skin, the ideal option is the Avkalia Thermal line. The Liftactive series is excellent for wrinkles and other age-related changes. In addition, this group includes Vichy scrub and other exfoliating products.
2. Cosmetics that even out skin tone and decorative dermocosmetics. This series includes foundations, powders, fluids and other products that remove skin imperfections.
3. Body care products. This group includes a sun protection series with varying degrees of UV filters. This also includes moisturizing serums and body creams, deodorants, etc.

Where is the best place to buy Vichy cosmetics?

I order Vichy products on the official website of the manufacturing company vichyconsult.ru. I will list 5 reasons why it is more profitable to buy from the Vichy online store:

1. With every order they give gifts. These are free samples of a new line or already known series of products. So nice!
2. When making purchases, bonuses are awarded under the Mnogo.ru program. Then they can be exchanged for a wide variety of prizes: free flights, equipment, toys, etc.
3. There is free delivery to any region of Russia (for orders over 2000 rubles)
4. They often hold great promotions for one or another product line. I recently placed a small order and, in addition to a sample, they also added Vichy Normaderm micellar makeup remover lotion for free.
5. Guaranteed storage conditions. It is on the official website that you will not be sold counterfeit or expired goods. All products are stored in a warehouse before being delivered to the buyer. Here it is provided with proper storage conditions.

That's why I always order Vichy products only on the official website. Here are some of Vichy's most popular products:

Vichy

Pisarenko Nadezhda Moscow (within the Moscow Ring Road) | 06/27/2019 |

Conclusions: I had never understood the essence of serums before, but it seems I was very mistaken. After the tonic, the serum cools the skin incredibly pleasantly, is absorbed instantly, after which the cream glides on perfectly. According to the tactile sensations, the skin actually “springs”. There is no smell. Two drops are not enough for me, but three drops are enough for both the face and neck.

Pisarenko Nadezhda Moscow (within the Moscow Ring Road) | 06/27/2019 |

Conclusions: I liked the tonic right away. Both in aroma and in action. Unlike Vichy Normaderm tonic, this one is absolutely not aggressive and really moisturizes well. It reminds me very much of the Bioderma blue toner. I will definitely tell you the full size version

Vinokurova Tatyana Astrakhan | 06/27/2019 |

Conclusions: Great roll-on deodorant! My first experience with drugstore deodorants, and I am very pleased! It's worth the money! It really doesn't leave marks on clothes! The texture is gel, but very light, easy to apply, dries in a matter of seconds! Refreshes for a long time, does not irritate the skin!

Pisarenko Nadezhda Moscow (within the Moscow Ring Road) | 06/27/2019 |

Conclusions: Wonderful set! The volumes of products are very pleasing. I’m already testing it out and I can say that I will definitely repeat the serum, cream and toner.

Olga Moska | 06/24/2019 |

Conclusions: Only for very oily skin!
Dries normal and sensitive skin to the point of flaking. It does not mattify, but whitens, does not moisturize well, and is not economical in consumption.
Didn't like it.

Borovikova Tatyana Novosibirsk | 06/23/2019 |

Conclusions: I've been using this serum for a long time. She's wonderful! Very light and economical. There is also a result in terms of efficiency. It seems to me that the skin has become denser and tightened. I'll take more!

Yurina Milana Moscow | 06/22/2019 |

Conclusions: I really liked the shampoo, it was in the travel set. The manufacturer's promises are real: hair is vibrant and shiny, stays clean longer, the scalp is not overdried, and the consumption is economical. Just a dream come true! I have tried many different shampoos from budget to professional and this is the leader

Rebus Elena Barnaul, Altai Territory | 06/21/2019 |

Conclusions: Even though I have dry skin, this light cream moisturizes perfectly. Smells nice. I use it with pleasure in spring/autumn, and at night during the heating season, alternating with Vichy creams of a different range. For the summer it’s too heavy for me, I use lighter textures.

Elena Barnaul, Altai Territory | 06/21/2019 |

Conclusions: I really liked the product. Moisturizes, evens out complexion, protects from the sun. I used it in tandem with eye cream and night cream of the same range. I tested it for two weeks and was satisfied. I want to buy the entire line.

Elena Barnaul, Altai Territory | 06/21/2019 |

Conclusions: He is perfect! I'm buying a second jar! The cream is light, with a pleasant aroma, perfectly moisturizes, and does not clog pores. The skin looks rested and radiant in the morning))) This is my favorite product from Vichy)

Girls, I am interested in reviews about this cosmetics. Who uses it, what is the result, is there any effect. It might be worth considering something else as an alternative.

There is a super remedy. My friend is absolutely delighted! Vichy idyll. Or something like that. Price approx 250. The skin is elastic, the color is super, there are 0 wrinkles.

This is just some kind of miracle!

They also have cream. I only know from reviews. It's called neovadiol neovadiol, the price is about 400-500 but the effect is bomb. read reviews on the internet
