• Vichy Aqualia Thermal moisturizing light for normal facial skin, Vichy Idealia day cream facial care for normal and combination skin suitable for young girls.
• Nutrilogie 2 facial cream to protect very dry skin and Liftactiv Collagen Specialist help the epidermis to saturate with collagen, making them indispensable for preventing premature age-related changes.

A little about Vichy

The Vshi company was founded back in 1931. Its progenitors: doctor Prospero Allaire and businessman Georges Guerin first proposed combining such areas as beauty and health. They used thermal water from the Lucas spring, located at the foot of the mountains near the town of Vichy in France, as the main active component. In 1955, L'Oréal became the owner of the Vichy brand. It is from this moment that all cosmetics become pharmaceutical products.

All products of this brand are distinguished by their environmental friendliness and versatility. Products are produced that help people of both sexes and different ages take high-quality and effective care for all parts of the body.

Depending on the skin type and existing problems, products in the following areas are produced:

• Normaderm - for the care of problem skin;
• Purete Thermal - cleansers for all types of epidermis
• Aqualia Thermal - moisturizing sensitive skin;
• Aqualia Antiox - mattifying agents;
• Lipidiose Nutritive - for dry skin care;
• Myokine - correction of the first expression wrinkles (age category 25-30 years);
• Liftactiv Retinol - for wrinkles 30+ and 40+;
• Liftactiv CxP - anti-wrinkle products that increase firmness (40+, 50+);

All products are positioned as natural, created on the basis of unique thermal water. Manufacturers guarantee the absence or (at least necessary) minimum amount of synthetic components. Reviews from cosmetologists and clients indicate that the products practically do not cause allergic reactions if they are selected correctly, taking into account individual characteristics.

Compensating complex Vichy Neovadiol

Why was the Vichy Neovadiol line created after 50 and given such close attention? The main task of this cosmetics is to support the skin of the fair sex at the “Balzac age”. After all, it is at this time that a woman’s body undergoes hormonal changes provoked by the menopause.

The secret of the creams and balms included in the Neovadiol line lies in the carefully selected composition:

• hyaluronic acid provides complete hydration to the thinning epidermis;
• proxilan increases turgor;
• caffeine supports the effectiveness of hyaluronic acid and tones;
• hedione helps accelerate the regeneration processes of the upper layers of the epidermis;
• proteins increase the intercellular matrix, resulting in a lifting effect;
• eperuline relieves irritation and soothes the skin.

All these components are basic in the products of this series. Depending on the type of product, the composition may contain other substances designed to solve more specific problems.

Day cream for dry skin types

The cream perfectly cares for dry, dehydrated skin during menopause. The composition contains hyaluronic acid and the innovative moisturizing agent Hepes-Hydrovance, which not only saturate the tissues of the epidermis and dermis with moisture, but also improve the appearance of the skin.

Another revolutionary component of Pro-Xylan is a “molecular agent”, that is, acting at the cellular level. It improves metabolic processes, which stimulates the production of its own collagen.

The complex of components is designed in such a way that it has a powerful hydrating and regenerating effect on the skin.

For normal type

Day care cream for normal skin (as well as combination skin) is identical in composition to the previous cream. But the components are present in slightly different concentrations.

Among the positive effects on the skin are:

• active fight against wrinkles;
• lifting effect;
• structuring the oval of the face;
• restoration of the natural hydrobalance of the dermis.

The skin becomes fresh, soft, elastic. The color and tone are evened out, the contour is tightened, and the turgor improves.

The product has a delicate texture and is absorbed almost instantly. This makes it possible to use the cream as a base for makeup.

It is recommended to apply not only to the face, but also to the neck and décolleté.

Night care

The compensating complex night cream contains, in addition to hyaluronic acid, Hepes-Hydrovance and proxylane, caffeine. The substance has a powerful anti-inflammatory effect, improves blood circulation and lymph flow. Thanks to this, in the morning the face is free from swelling and bags under the eyes.

As a rule, Vichy night cream after 50 is used as the final stage of evening care. To achieve the maximum possible effect, cosmetologists recommend applying it after serum from the same line of products.

It is important to know! Regular use of all products, including night cream, guarantees a noticeable smoothing of even pronounced nasolabial furrows.

Eye and lip contour care

The skin around the lips and eyes has a particularly delicate texture. Special products have always been intended for this area, fully moisturizing, nourishing, protecting and stimulating internal processes more actively.

In our case, the active components of the product are:

• protein – cell growth stimulator;
• proxilan – increases skin elasticity;
• eperulin is a legume extract that has an anti-inflammatory effect;
• thermal water.

The texture of the cream is very light, almost weightless. The product is quickly absorbed. The general condition of epidermal and dermal tissues improves, their elasticity increases, and facial wrinkles are smoothed out.

Nourishing balm Magistral (Mazhistral)

The product is intended for dry, weakened and thinned skin during menopause, when there is an acute shortage of female sex hormones in the body, in particular estrogen.

Vichy nourishing balm, like other representatives of this series of products, contains the innovative component Pro-Xylan, which restores the intercellular matrix.

In addition to this, the composition includes:

• protein – stimulates tissue regeneration processes;
• thermal water moisturizes and tones;
• shea butter saturates with vitamins;
• Rice bran oil nourishes with minerals;
• safrole oil promotes;
• cowpea extract.

The texture of Vichy Magistral nourishing balm is something between a cream and a serum. The substance is applied very well and distributed over the entire surface of the skin, quickly absorbed, nourishes and moisturizes, penetrating into the deepest layers of tissue.

The visual effect of rejuvenation is noticeable after a month of regular use.

Magistral Elixir serum with restorative oils

Neovadiol serum with restorative oils is designed specifically for active nutrition of dry skin suffering from a lack of nutrients. Active ingredients include only natural ingredients:

• Shea Butter;
• rice bran oil;
• safflower oil;
• capsicum extract;
• tocopherol

The serum is very well absorbed, penetrating into the deepest layers of skin tissue, nourishing and replenishing the lack of polyunsaturated amino acids. Vitamin E has antioxidant properties and protects the skin from photoaging.

The product is used both independently and in combination with creams from this line.

Reviews from cosmetologists about the Vichy Neovadiol series

Reviews from cosmetologists about Vichy creams after 50 years indicate that all products correspond to the characteristics declared by the manufacturers. Experts recommend using all products in the series, including special elixirs, oils and serums. This is guaranteed to bring results with regular use.

The only drawback of the product is its rather impressive price. But the products are also from the category of “luxury” skin care products!

Discussion:

1. Valentina says:
   The products are truly unique. My husband gave it to me for my birthday (I myself would not have decided to buy the entire line at once). A month of daily use in full brought amazing results. It’s like I lost ten years. Although expensive, I will buy more when these run out)
2. Tamara says:

   Yes, I agree, it's a little expensive. But beauty requires investment. And especially at our age, it’s difficult to get it without plastic surgery and similar tricks. Vichy gives you this chance, so don't miss it.

3. Oksana says:

   This is my favorite cosmetics. I've used it before. Now I have moved to a new “weight category.” The result, as always, is amazing. Nobody gives me as many years as I actually have. Thanks Vishy!

4. Victoria says:

   I personally don’t see much difference between Vichy cosmetics and our Libriderm, for example. I use the latter and am very pleased. My result is no worse than that of a friend who pays fabulous sums for Vichy cosmetics!

5. Tatyana says:

   No, girls, you can’t save on yourself. If you want to look presentable, pay. Moreover, with the current pension system, we will have to remember again what interviews for a vacant position are. So your job is in your hands. Or rather, in a presentable and young-looking face)

Advantages and disadvantages of Vichy cosmetics

Do cosmetics have contraindications: how to protect yourself

Skin problems after using one or another cosmetic can occur for one reason - if there is an allergy to some component in the composition. Undesirable results can be produced by products that are inappropriate for your age group - if you start using a cream for women 45+ at 25, it will most likely cause skin irritation or another negative reaction. Inconsistency with your skin type can also cause either a negative reaction or lack of the desired result.

You may not even know about allergies, so for your own safety you should always start using an unfamiliar product with a test - put a drop of cream (or any other cosmetic) on your wrist and wait 15 minutes. If red spots, itching and pimples appear, be glad you didn't put cream on your face and visit a dermatologist to prescribe a suitable antihistamine. If there is no reaction, you can safely use the product.

Reviews

Irina: Thanks to Vichy cream, my crow's feet wrinkles began to gradually disappear after only 10 days of using the cream in the eye area.

Tamara: I have always been tormented by the problem of oily skin and, accordingly, the appearance of acne, despite my age. After using the cream, the skin became more matte, the shine of fat disappeared, and the skin tightened due to the lifting effect.

Olga Ivanovna: I am very pleased with cosmetic products from Vichy. I’ve been using only products from this brand for two years now and I just don’t recognize my skin, in a good way.

Cost of anti-wrinkle cosmetics

This company was one of the first to sell its cosmetics not in stores, but in pharmacies. Its products can be purchased in almost all of them, as well as online on the official website directly from France. The cost of sending the parcel will cost about 40 euros. The effectiveness of this cosmetics will manifest itself faster if you use three products at the same time. Their price is:

• lip and eye cream (15 ml tube) can be purchased for 1,700 rubles;
• day and night cream of the Neovadiol series (jars of 50 ml each) costs from 2100 rubles.

Vichy cosmetics are valuable because they are produced on the basis of the most, so to speak, ancient mineral water, which was extracted on the planet from a hot spring called Lucas. Creams of this brand are hormonal, so they should be used after consultation with a dermatologist, so as not to disturb the general hormonal balance of the body.
