The world-famous Vichy brand belongs to the L'Oréal company, which was founded in France back in 1909 of the last century. The founder of L'Oreal is Eugene Schullet, who, as you know, was a chemist by training. The concern produces a variety of popular brands of skin care, hair care and decorative cosmetics.

Vichy is a French brand that has been producing high-quality hair and face care cosmetics for about a hundred years. The basis of most of the products produced is thermal water from a source in the city of Vichy - hence the name of the brand. This city, located in the central part of France, gained fame back in the days of ancient Rome.
The first mention of the magical properties of thermal springs dates back to approximately 52-53 BC. According to history, the Roman legion, returning from battle, stopped on the bank of a deep river. People have noticed that the warm water in the springs has extraordinary therapeutic properties and helps in the fight against illnesses.
One of these sources with healing properties also gained popularity among doctors in the 17th century, and it was he who inspired the creators of the brand to use thermal water in cosmetics. In 1931, the manager of a perfume company and also the doctor who managed the Vichy thermal society met with the healing springs in the city.
The manager stayed in the province because he had a large wound on his leg that did not heal for a long time. The doctor advised applying water from a source to the wound, and a little later the effect exceeded all expectations: not a trace remained of the injury. So the enterprising manager suggested that the doctor use thermal water from the source in cosmetics, giving it the name “Vichy”.
Vichy face cream is a kind of calling card of the brand today. A wide range of creams allows each representative of the fair sex to choose a product that is right for her. This is due to the fact that the above-mentioned doctor proposed to classify skin by type; moreover, he invented unique formulas to care for each type. This is how the well-known “Secret de VICHY” creams appeared on sale. The line included 8 care products for various skin types, and the basis of the creams was, of course, thermal water.
The brand became extremely popular, first in France and then throughout the world. All this thanks to a scientific approach, the conclusion that different types of skin require different care, as well as the desire to please the potential consumer. For that time it was a real revolutionary breakthrough.
Today, the company’s mission is to ensure that, thanks to its products, the skin of girls and women from all over the world, regardless of various unfavorable factors affecting their appearance, remains well-groomed and looks healthy and young for as long as possible. Vichy is a luxury pharmaceutical cosmetics that does not superficially eliminate various skin problems, but eliminates the root causes of such problems.
High quality is confirmed by the brand’s constant cooperation with dermatologists. Regular use of a properly selected Vichy cream can effectively, but at the same time safely, transform absolutely any skin, even those prone to allergic reactions or sensitive.
All finished products of the brand are regularly compared with the formula, and specialists examine the quality of texture under a microscope. It is thanks to such strict control that 100% product safety is achieved, which is the main motto of Vichy.
