The experts from Vichy are here to share the latest skin care intel.

Your skin’s needs change over time, and your skin care regimen should be ready to address the unique challenges and goals associated with every stage of life. Early on, a skin care approach that helps prevent damage caused by environmental aggressors is ideal for maintaining the skin’s youthful appearance. With time, you may want to adapt your skin care regimen to target and improve age-related changes. With Vichy, it’s easy to meet your skin’s needs at any life stage. Here are some of our top product picks for:

Vichy favorites for any age

Before diving into our different age-specific regimens, there are two Vichy products that skin at any age can benefit from. The first is Vichy LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum because its powerful yet well-tolerated formula helps protect the skin from environmental damage while delivering a visible complexion-brightening boost. The second is Vichy Mineral 89, a skin care booster that plumps the skin with hydration while helping the skin stand up to environmental aggressors that contribute to visible signs of aging. Featuring hyaluronic acid and Vichy Volcanic Water, this formula also works to strengthen the skin moisture barrier. Best of all, it’s easy to integrate these products into any Vichy skin care regimen.

Vichy Mineral 89 Hyaluronic Acid Serum

Your 20s

This decade is all about keeping your skin in tip-top shape with much-needed moisture and protection against the free-radical damage that can appear as visible signs of aging years later.

Vichy LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum: Environmental damage (and pollution in particular) can make the skin appear dull or uneven. Vitamin C is a potent, proven-effective antioxidant, and this serum helps provide visible brightening results within ten days.

Vichy Minéral 89 Fragrance-Free Cream: Suitable for all skin types (including sensitive), this lightweight, fast-absorbing daily moisturizer is formulated with hyaluronic acid, mineral-rich Vichy Volcanic Water, vitamin B3, vitamin E and squalane to provide long-lasting, 72-hour hydration and strengthen the skin barrier.

Vichy LiftActiv H.A. Anti-Wrinkle Firming Fragrance Free Cream

Your 30s

Now’s the time to step up your skin care to address early age-related changes, such as fine lines and uneven skin tone. Keep using Vichy LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum, but consider adding these targeted products to your daily regimen.

Vichy LiftActiv B3 Serum

Vichy LiftActiv B3 Serum: Ideal for all skin tones, this serum is formulated with niacinamide, glycolic acid and tranexamic acid to tackle dark spots, uneven skin tone, fine lines and early wrinkles.

Vichy LiftActiv Peptide C Advanced Anti-Aging Moisturizer: Packed with vitamin C, peptides and niacinamide, this multitasking moisturizer targets the visible signs of aging that are most likely to appear at this age while helping the skin feel firmer and smoother over time.

Your 40s

During this time, many want their skin to look as good (and young) as they feel. Vichy LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum continues to prevent environmental damage and boost radiance, and these Vichy products help you up your anti-aging efforts as the skin’s natural production of hyaluronic acid declines.

Vichy LiftActiv Supreme 1.5% Hyaluronic Acid Face & Wrinkle Corrector: This face and eye serum is formulated with 1.5% pure hyaluronic acid for a visible plumping effect and Vichy Volcanic Water to protect skin from environmental stressors. Clinical testing shows a 47% reduction in wrinkles and a 60% reduction in fine lines after six weeks.

Vichy LiftActiv Supreme 1.5% Hyaluronic Acid Face Serum & Wrinkle Corrector

Vichy LiftActiv H.A. Anti-Wrinkle Firming Fragrance-Free Cream: Featuring hyaluronic acid and vitamin C, this concentrated cream addresses multiple signs of aging in all skin types without any fragrance.

Your 50s

This is the decade when hormonal changes have likely begun to make their presence known, possibly in the form of a decrease in skin firmness and increased wrinkles, as well as uneven skin tone and texture. Yes, your skin still needs LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum for environmental protection and maintaining even skin tone! These Vichy products can help improve visible signs of aging and the effects menopause may be starting to have on the skin.

Vichy LiftActiv Pure Retinol Serum

Vichy LiftActiv Pure Retinol Serum: Formulated with 0.2% pure retinol to smooth the appearance of wrinkles (including deep ones), this potent serum also contains peptides to enhance the feeling of skin firmness and vitreoscilla ferment sourced from Vichy spring water to help soothe the skin barrier.

Vichy Neovadiol Peri-Menopause Redensifying Plumping Day Cream: With an advanced combination of Proxylaneâ„¢, hyaluronic acid, cassia extract and Vichy Volcanic Water, this nourishing moisturizer works to boost plumpness and the feeling of firmness, enhance skin bounciness, improve uneven skin tone and smooth skin texture.

Your 60s

Mature, post-menopausal skin produces less collagen and lipids. It also often needs extra hydration to maintain its comfort. Vichy LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum is still a morning must, and these additional Vichy products help keep sixty-something skin looking and feeling its best.

Vichy Neovadiol Meno 5 Bi-Serum

Vichy Neovadiol Meno 5 Serum: With Proxylaneâ„¢, cassia extract, omega-6 and -9 fatty acids and Vichy Volcanic Water as well as vitamins B3, C and E, this serum ticks all the boxes for post-menopausal skin. Its five key benefits include improving the appearance of dark spots, reducing the look of wrinkles, visibly firming skin, boosting radiance and providing a surge of hydration.

Vichy Neovadiol Post-Menopause Replenishing Firming Day Cream: Formulated to minimize the effects of menopause, this targeted moisturizer provides the skin with much-needed lipids. Its key ingredients include Proxylaneâ„¢, cassia extract, Vichy Volcanic Water, vitamin B3 and omega-3, -6 and -9 fatty acids for skin that feels firmer and more supple.

No matter your age, it’s important to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to shield the skin from sun damage that can contribute to visible signs of skin aging as well as skin cancer.
