With its scientifically proven formulas and wide range of products for face and body, French skin care brand Vichy has earned plenty of fans here in the LovelySkin office. From plumping face serums to the best makeup remover to use on the go or at home, here are a few of their must-haves for daily use.
The numeral 89 in this hydrating facial serum stands for the percentage of Vichy Volcanic Water it contains combined with hyaluronic acid to help skin look plumper and smoother. “I like that this serum hydrates my skin without irritating acne,” says Vanessa C., Purchasing Manager. “It's great as a standalone moisturizer in the summer but can be layered under moisturizer in the winter for added hydration. I love the texture and it wears well under makeup. It's a staple in my routine!” For more tips, you can check out our blog post about how to use Vichy Mineral 89 in any skin care regimen.
When Site Merchandiser Meg P. feels a breakout coming, she reaches for this targeted acne treatment. “This really does a good job fighting acne—and fast,” she says. “I love using this product as a spot treatment for the occasional breakout. The sulfur, niacinamide and glycolic acid reduce the size and severity of my blemish without irritating my skin. After a few days of use, you would barely notice I was dealing with a breakout!”
The primary goal of this Vichy serum is to help stressed-out skin get on the road to recovery with niacinamide and vitreoscilla ferment, a prebiotic ingredient. “This serum helps give my skin a hydration boost while also repairing my skin barrier when my skin is extra stressed and reactive,” says Tiffany W., Digital Marketing Specialist. “It has a nice texture. It’s not too heavy and not at all sticky. I also like its price point to continue to repurchase and rotate into my skin care routine.”
When it comes to caring for her dry skin, Social Media Lead Ashley B. calls this eye gel a lifesaver. “It keeps my skin nice and hydrated without feeling tacky or oily, and it helps reduce under-eye puffiness as well,” she says. “I love how lightweight it is, and the bottle lasts a long time, even with twice daily use! I’d recommend it to anyone.”
“I love using Vichy’s Micellar Wipes to remove makeup because they are quick, effective and gentle on my sensitive skin,” says Stephanie S., wife of Dr. Daniel Schlessinger, who created FixMySkin with board-certified dermatologist and LovelySkin CEO Dr. Joel Schlessinger. “Even though they are gentle, they still do a nice job wiping away eye makeup,” she says. As an eco-conscious bonus, these face wipes are also made from plant-based material that is 100% compostable.
Jill T., Content Manager, is a big fan of this fragrance-free facial moisturizer. “It’s perfect for colder months when my skin feels and looks a little drier,” she says. “The hyaluronic acid hydrates my skin immediately, and I love that the Vichy Volcanic Water provides an extra layer of protection against environmental elements that can contribute to signs of aging."
