90% OF CHICKS DIG IT
Vichy is my go to brand.
I have been using this along with the Idealia Smoothness & Energizing Cream for a month and a half. I have to say I love the beautiful, sleek glass pump bottle that it comes in. It is a red Ombre color that looks very chic and expensibe. I only use this once daily in the morning and since I only need one pump for my entire face the 30 ml bottle will last about three months.
This is a nice clear serum that spreads easily and melts into the skin like water. It doesn't leave it feeling tacky. It is however not overly moisturizing. If you have dry skin you will definitely need to use a moisturizer over top. The scent is a pretty strong floral scent so it would not be liked by everyone.
With continued use I noticed my complexion was brighter and more even toned. Since I already have very small pores I didn't notice a change. As for reducing wrinkles I only have very faint number frown lines and I didn't notice any change at all. Although this serum didn't show major results it does contain antioxidant and Vichy mineralizing Thermal Water which I know is protecting my skin from environmental aggressors and keeping it healthy which will help me age gracefully.
Like a Primer....
I was kindly sent this in exchange for my honest review. I have been using the Idéalia Radiance Boosting Serum for about 4 weeks now & I can see why it's sold out on vichy.ca (don't worry they will have it back in stock shortly! & can be found at Shoppers Drugmart)
The serum is unlike any other in that it has the feel of a primer but acts like a primer for moisturizers. You definitely need to use a moisturizer after using this because I forgot once & my makeup didn't go on smoothly. I love the texture of primers so this was 'ideal' for me. It's recommended for fatigued skin, visible pores & fine lines. Me- check, check, check + oily skin. I did notice my pores were slightly smaller (yay!) but couldn't really tell if my fine lines were finer but I would assume so if I noticed my pores were smaller. My skin's texture has improved quite a bit too-much smoother & brighter.
Key ingredients- extract of Licorice, Citrus Flavanoid(found in unripe citrus fruits & used for radiance & brightening) , fermented Adenosine (clinically proven ingredient that provides energy to skin cells&smooths;, firms & repairs) & Mineral Thermalizing Water
I will continue to use this because I have been very happy with the results of this & the Idéalia night cream. I would definitely recommend this product if it fits with your skin concerns.

Not really worth the price
I got this as a trial from Vichy with their day cream. While I LOVED the day cream, the serum just didn't work out for me. It was too heavy, and made my skin sticky. I would make my skin flaky if I tried to use it under my foundation. To be honest I used it a couple times and then had to give up on it. Might work with someone with less dry skin then mine.
Vichy Radiance Boosting Serum
Vichy Day Radiance Boosting Serum, looks beautiful in it's package. The product looks rich and inviting. As for the product use. I did like the amount of moisture that it provided my skin, as well as the quick absorption rate. I did not love the smell of the product though, I found it quite floral and I would not recommend this to anyone with sent sensitivities.
Would Use As Primer
I really like the bottle and the packaging, but I did not care for the product. It is really light with fast absorption, and the smell fades very quickly, but it doesn't provide any moisturizing benefits. I was a little disappointed because I adore Vichy products. I just found that this product didn't really do anything for me. There was no visible difference between using it or not using it, even after weeks. However, the dimethicone made my skin feel super soft to the touch, and helped my makeup go on more smoothly, making this a good primer.
great serum!!!!!!!
I really like this boosting serum I always use it after my morning routines and then put it on first then my regular moisturizing its light weight and great texture and give my face that glow.... # I was lucky to get chosen to review this Product, thank you!!!!!
Vichy serum
I love this serum! My skin just love it and absorb it right away. It feels great and moisturized. It evens out my complexion and this stuff helps makes my skin feels soft and dewy. The pumping packaging was great, it helps keep the product sanitized and always on the same amount of pump.
Goes well with the idealis moisturizer
I tried this in combination with the moisturizer and they compliment each well. my skin was soft and plump. It's in a decent condition so not sure about additional radiance but it did not cause breakouts, so that's great.
Average serum
I have been using this serum for a few weeks now and while it smells nice, absorbs well, and provides some hydration, I haven't really noticed any additional brightness or clarity in complexion/skintone. Not sure if I would purchase again as there are other serums by Vichy that I prefer but I will continue to use this Idealia line until it runs out!
Amazing results
@VichyCanada @ChickAdvisor Absolutely amazing serum - I am completely in love with this product! Received it as part of a set to use and evaluate for free. I am completely addicted to the results. I just had a baby and pregnancy hormones as well as sleep deprivation were really affecting my skin. I apply just a few drops of the serum and the results are almost instantaneous - my skin looks firmer, refreshed and the tone is more ever. I have been using it for a couple of weeks and I love my skin. Smooth, firm and even tone. I really like the fragrance as well - light and pleasant. The serum absorbs almost instantaneously. Definitely worth every penny and I will be buying this again as my new skin routine. I AM A #vichylover ! #VichyLoverCA
