With decades of research, thirty clinical studies, nine published scientific papers and worldwide collaborations with menopause experts, Vichy is raising awareness, promoting education and committed to supporting women around the world.

Peri-menopause vs. post-menopause

It’s important to understand menopause is a process and doesn’t happen overnight. Many women enter peri-menopause and begin to experience a wide range of symptoms as many as ten years before menopause is official, which is when a full year passes without a menstrual cycle. After that point, you’ve entered post-menopause.

As hormonal levels fluctuate between the average ages of 45 to 65 years old, the skin experiences significant changes. Leading up to and during menopause, dermatologists have observed the loss of skin lipids, collagen, elasticity and thickness, which continue to decline with time. Driven by science, guidance from dermatologists and women themselves, Vichy is proud to introduce two new dermatologist-tested moisturizers specifically formulated to meet the needs of your skin during peri-menopause and post-menopause.

Skin care for peri-menopause

Created with peri-menopausal skin in mind, the new Vichy Neovadiol Redensifying Plumping Day Cream features a complex of Proxylane and cassia extract, hyaluronic acid and mineral-rich Vichy volcanic water to enhance the feeling of skin firmness, smooth the look of fine lines and wrinkles and strengthen the skin’s barrier while hydrating and plumping the skin. This results in redensified, bouncier skin with more even-looking skin tone and texture.

After using Neovadiol Redensifying Plumping Day Cream for four weeks, peri-menopausal women with sensitive skin shared their thoughts:

• 78% agreed skin feels smoother.

• 89% agreed skin feels nourished.

• 85% agreed skin feels suppler.

• 75% agreed their skin tone looks more even.

Skin care for post-menopause

For post-menopausal skin, the new Vichy Neovadiol Replenishing Firming Day Cream is also formulated with Proxylane, cassia extract and Vichy volcanic water, in addition to niacinamide and omega-3, -6 and -9 fatty acids for antioxidant protection, enhanced radiance, improved suppleness and replenishment of the skin’s supply of essential lipids.

After using Neovadiol Replenishing Firming Day Cream for four weeks, post-menopausal women with sensitive skin reported:

• 92% agreed skin feels nourished.

• 86% agreed skin feels suppler.

• 69% agreed skin feels firmer.

• 69% agreed fine lines linked with dehydrated skin appear reduced.

• 76% agreed overall skin appearance looks improved.

Skin care for any stage of menopause

These new additions to the Neovadiol range complement Vichy’s revolutionary Meno-5 Serum, which completes your skin care regimen at any stage of menopause.

Formulated for peri- and post-menopausal skin, Vichy Neovadiol Meno-5 provides a potent blend of Proxylane, cassia extract, vitamins B3, C and E, omega -6 and -9 fatty acids and Vichy volcanic water. This potent, daily serum helps replenish the skin and reveal a radiant, even-looking complexion. Plus, it improves the look of dark spots, reduces the appearance of wrinkles, visibly firms skin, reinforces the skin’s protective barrier, boosts radiance and provides much-needed hydration.

Vichy believes all women deserve to love the skin they’re in at every stage of life, including peri- and post-menopause. As the menopause skin care expert for more than thirty years, Vichy offers efficacious skin care solutions women are looking for at this natural stage of life.
