    I got to try it throught Chickadvisor for free and I loved it. I took my skin care routine really seriously over the last 3 weeks and I really feel my skin has improve. It is hydrated and has a nice glow to it. The cream is very lightweight, which is perfect before applying makeup. It didn't leave my face greasy, but I really felt it was hydrating my skin. I had tried a lot of different brand in the past, but I finally found a cream that works well with my skin.

    I just love how this cream feels on my skin! The whole Aqualia Thermal line is perfect for summer (even in the sweltering heat wave we've had in Ontario lately) because the products are as hydrating as they are lightweight and refreshing. My skin is combination to oily, sensitive and breakout-prone and I've had zero problems with irritation, pore-clogging or acne while using Vichy Aqualia Thermal Light. It is a little too strongly perfumed, but the scent is very pleasant and disappears quickly. I apply a thin layer in the morning before putting on makeup and after cleansing and applying the Aqualia Thermal serum. It does not cause my make up to slide right off, as some heavier moisturizers tend to do in the warmer months, and I haven't noticed any added shine, even in the T-zone. I love how soft it makes my skin, it goes on like silk and the moisture lasts - my face feels more supple until I take my make up off (and then I reapply the cream, because it just feels too good! :). My skin has visibly improved - it definitely looks healthier and feels fresher. I think I've finally found THE summer moisturizer for me!
    Note: I received the product for free from Chickadvisor.

    I like this cream. It is very light weight maybe a little too light weight. What I mean by that is, it has been very hot where I live and I have sweat this cream off lol. However it is moisturizing and reduces shine and doesn't leave my skin shiny. I am thinking I will like this cream better in winter when I am less sweating. I am not likely to buy this because of the price and I have a lot of creams. It is worth a try, so I recommend it.

    While the name would make you think this was a light moisturizer, I actually found it to be quite heavy.
    My skin in combination with some sensitivity and while I really liked this before bed, it was too heavy for daytime.
    I wear mineral make up and it did not allow for a smooth application. By noon I needed to blot and reapply. I've been applying it before bed only and using my usual cream with spf with better results.
    Maybe in the winter when my skin is a little dryer and I tend to use liquid foundation this would work better. For now it's a miss for me.

    This is called a light cream, but don't let the name fool you because this worked great on my dry skin. I have tight, dry skin with very dry patches on my forehead, nose and chin. I have tried lots of different moisturizers, exfoliaters, masks etc. but nothing worked. I used this twice a day for a month along with the eye balm and serum, and now my dry skin is completely hydrated. This cream didn't leave my skin feeling overly sticky and I did not have any breakouts either. The price is very reasonable if you take into account that you only need a very small amount. I will buy this again and I highly recommend it. I received this product for free from Chick Advisor and Vichy in return for an honest review

    I did not like this product, the smell was so strong and it actually stung when I applied it to my skin. It also does not absorb quickly leaving my skin feeling greasy and the more I rubbed it into my skin I found it would "pill" it also did not allow my foundation to go on evenly.

    I love this cream. My skin is sensitive and dehydrated, even during summer. I had tried other products from Vichy but I think Aqualia Thermal is just perfect for my skin. The cream does not leave any feeling of stickiness whatsoever, and I can put makeup on 3-5 minutes after applying it. Great product!

    I received this product to try for free from Chick Advisor. I was excited to try this line and I am glad I had the opportunity. I have combination skin with a few fine lines.
    This moisturizer was my least favourite of all of the products I tried. While the packaging is beautiful and it has a nice mirror on the lid, I found the scent to be overpowering. The texture of the cream is light and nice to touch but I really disliked the way it felt on my skin. It felt heavy and like it just sat on top of my skin. My skin felt smooth but it was more of a barrier than an absorption. Like a layer of silicone on my face. By the end of the day, my makeup was falling off my face and it was a greasy mess. After continued use, my face broke out and I feel this cream was the reason. If not for the smell, it might be a great winter cream but as an everyday average cream, I would not buy it.

    This is a really lovely daily moisturizer. I liked the packaging a lot and felt that the amount included was extremely generous for the retail price. I noticed a difference using this cream in conjunction with the serum.
