    I received this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. Tried applying both recommended methods, much preferred the in-shower method. Worked great. Skin felt refreshing after. I would use in the future.

    Seriously, this stuff is great! I would use this year round because it makes my skin feel so damn soft, like butter! The scent is awesome also. I used this in the shower and just rinsed it off with water. It hydrating my normally dry body and it lasts at least 24 hours. I highly recommend trying this product to extend you tan's life as well. I received this product free via Chickadvisor.

    This was a fun product to try out, only because I didn't need it. I already have a dark skin tone and this product just wasn't meant for me. I did however ask a much fairer friend to try it out and she thoroughly enjoyed it. She tanned her arms and the tan was very even and natural looking.

    This is my favourite Vichy product! I love everything about this. It deeply moisturizes my skin - doesn't just sit on top. Also, its so easy to use. I like to use it after a bath to seal in hydration. Received from ChickAdvisor for review.

    I got this product as part of a sample package from Vichy
    This product is a in or out of shower product for after sun use. I could not have been happier with this product, it did not have a smell to it which was nice. I absolutely loved how refreshed Mt akin felt without feeling greasy. I wasn't sure what to expect when I started the product but after 3 weeks of use I can say I don't want to go without it! I used the product both in and out of the shower and it transitioned fantasticly.

    Lets just say this product is amazing! I had a terrible sunburn and it helped it turn it into a beautiful tan! So nice! The only bad thing is if you use it in the shower, it makes the shower a little slippery so be careful! lol!

    I received this product in exchange for an honest review. I love the texture and ease of use when I put this on after my shower. My skin feels instantly hydrated and moisturized. It is a very versatile product and leaves my skin soft to the touch while providing the extra glow to my skin.

    Oh my goodness, I love this. I received it for free for an honest review. It smells AMAZING! It also moisturizes my skin so well. I have been using it even when I haven't been spending much time in the sun. It leaves a light but not greasy feeling.

    I was very excited to received Vichy Idéal Soleil Double Usage After-Sun Carefree to review as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. #GotItFree

    I’ve used sunscreens for years because I don’t want to burn and I want to try to remain as safe as possible when being exposed to the sun. That being said, the only “After-sun” product I’ve used would be Aloe Vera Gel in order to reduce the burning achieved by a sunburn. So I was intrigued by this product and couldn’t wait to test it out.

    This is a newer product on the market. It is hypoallergenic, paraben free and for sensitive skin. It claims to hydrate your skin after it is exposed to the sun. This product is a liquid and comes in a bottle with a pump. One pump gives a nice bit of product that can be easily rubbed into the skin. When used on dry skin it does not seem to be oily or leave any residue and it leaves the skin feeling silky smooth.

    This product claims to be “The first tan beautifying after-sun that can be used both in-shower or on wet/dry skin.” The fact that this product can be used in almost any situation is rather impressive. I’m not a person who is a big fan of leaving a lot of products on your skin at the same time. The fact that this can be used in the shower and be washed off immediately after be applied, but allowing you to still benefit from it, is pretty awesome in my books!

    It has more of a fragrance than other Vichy products I have used. It leaves a fresh, clean smell with a hint of something that reminds me of various fruit extracts. It is definitely not overpowering and would not be something I would easily notice if others were to use this product. The bonus is that if you are concerned about the smell of the product, it can be used in the shower and washed off to still allow you to reap the benefits.

    It should also be noted that there is a warning on the bottle that states that this product should not be used on your face. Also, if you use this product in the shower it suggests rinsing the shower after use to avoid slipping. This concerns me a little. I completely understand why the company would place this warning on the bottle, as this product does have the consistency of oil, but it definitely kept me from trying this in the shower (especially after reading other reviews that stated that the shower was slippery after use). Another thing that I expected (and was kind of disappointed not to find in this product) is a cooling sensation when applied. This is what I associate with after-sun products.

    Overall I am interested to continue trying this product. But to be honest, it is probably not one I’d consider purchasing in the future. I feel like it overpriced for what it is and that there are cheaper products out there with similar features.

    They say that good things come in threes, but I just don't know about the Vichy double usage after-sun care. I am truly undecided about whether or not I like it. The biggest problem is that this product confuses me. Or maybe more appropriately, the advertising/description is what confuses me. I purposely have not googled this because I feel like you should be able to figure out from the package alone what the purpose of a product is. I understand that it is tan-beautifying, but what does that even mean? I get that you can apply it in the shower and on dry skin, but what is the outcome supposed to be? It says for radiant skin, but putting oil on my skin is obviously going to make it radiant and shiny. With 3 different languages on the bottle (English, French and Dutch?) I feel like they lost valuable space to explain what this does. I think it should say that it softens skin, if that is in fact the intent. Although I like the way my skin feels, I am left with that confusion as to why I would want to purchase this if I don't believe in tanning.
