I received this product because i'm a member and i've been selected with 199 other lucky members from chick advisor. When it first came in my mail box I was pretty surprised. it came with two products: the life serum and the skin sleep. the packaging of the life serum is a faded shade a pink with silver writing. The bootle looks and feel like a pretty high luxury product.

I used to try some other night cream and dont like it because it leaves my skin so oily during the night and dont like this feeling on my already greasy skin. I was pretty pumped to try this product and see how it would be. they suggest to put the serum first and then the moisturizer, I think that this step helped my skin a lot because the serum fulfil my skin first.

Overall this product is a huge YESS for me. First because my skin is a lot more even. Second my pores are smaller and third I finally found a night cream that works for me !!!!!

I'm soon happy !!

Thank you Vichy and Chickadvisor for theses products it works wonders with me !!!

I received this product for free from Chick Advisor to review. This product improved the radiance of my skin as well as the moisture, tone and texture. It absorbed quickly, and did not irritate my sensitive, rosacea addled skin. The fragrance was pleasant albeit strong. I would definitely recommend this product

Didn't irritate my skin. Very lightweight. Hydrates well

After using this product since I first received it to test I have been extremely pleased with the quality. It doesn't cause me to break out, it makes my face feel clean and invigorated and causes no adverse reactions. I have been using this combined with the Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep so I am unsure how effective this product is by itself as I've been using both products together since first receiving them to try from ChickAdvisor. I have noticed an improvement in my skin. I work outdoors daily, in every type of weather so my skin takes a beating on a daily basis. From wind burns, to sweating to extreme dry skin I have already noticed my skin feels softer and more supple and less irritated on a daily basis. The only things that I don't totally love about this product is the scent. It is very heavily scented, which I can see being a problem for some, I personally would prefer a lighter scent but it doesn't cause me discomfort or any problems. Also the cost is pretty extreme for the full set. I have yet to run out, so I will have to see how long the product lasts before I can fully judge that.
All in all, if you can afford it, I'd recommend it, good product unless strong scents bother you.

This product applies well, not incredibly thick which is good but it is really creamy. I find the feel of the product stays on my skin for too long. I don't like the feeling of having a product on my skin, well after the product should have absorbed into the skin. It also did not change the appearance of my skin. Don't think I'd be purchasing this for myself.

This is Vichy At it's best! What a wonderful product from smell, color, Feel and instant results! I find the product to be out of my price range..therefore I wouldn't b able to purchase regularly... which is a again.e cause I'm in love with this product!

I'm not sure how this product works on it's own, but I'm always a bit tentative to try new face skin products, as my skin is a bit sensitive and I tend to break out (even at 55). I've been using the product for two weeks now, along with the Idealia Skin Sleep, and no 'issues' with breakouts. I've used it under my regular day cream (not Vichy) and found it a bit heavy for day time, so I use it on my neck and decolletage during the day. In combination with the Skin Sleep at night it works wonders.I'm always a bit tentative to try new face skin products, as my skin is a bit sensitive and I tend to break out (even at 55). I've been using the product for two weeks now and no 'issues' with breakouts. I don't get a lot of sleep during the week and my face usually shows it, especially with pronounced 'jowls'. After a couple of nights using Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep, I wake up looking like I had 8 hours sleep. The 'jowls' are very much diminished and my skin is soft and supple. I love how the 2 products work together and will certainly be purchasing them again, instead of my usual 'expensive' products. Love the subtle scent, too.

I received Vichy Idealia Life Serum free to try from Chick Advisor. I have been using it along with the Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep cream also which I will review.

At first try of the Idealia Serum I found it to be quite scented, well more than I'm used to from my usual product. It's not a natural scent either like citrus or aloe, more of a perfume or floral scent. It didn't bother me much and I got used to it, but someone who is sensitive may be affected. The serum provides the perfect base for the Skin Sleep cream; it allows the cream to be applied & blended more easily and to better absorb into the skin.

After using the products for 3 weeks, my skin looks a bit more hydrated, and feels slightly firmer, and 'plumped". I also wasn't waking up in the morning with the pillow creases on my face that I would usually get without using this product - which in itself is a bonus! So these products were defiantly doing something good for my skin. :) As I said earlier, the products work better as a combo instead of alone, which is probably how it's intended. This however will raise the price point having to buy 2 products instead of one. Both worked well and I will probably purchase again once this sample runs out. Thanks Chick Advisor & Vichy for giving me the opportunity to try!

I was chosen to review Vichy Idealia Life Serum. I was pumped when I ChickAdvisor.com sent me the free product!

First, I want to say I plan to purchase this product as I don't plan on discontinuing it's use. I'm in my mid-30s and I'm not sure about others but Im dealing with dry skin, aging (lines) around my eyes and yet still the occasional blemish. So to find a product that deals with the first two without giving me oily skin (increasing pimples) is amazing.

What I loved about this product is that with the consistent use, my skin tone evened out and I didn't feel like I had to "put on my face", as they say, to leave the house. I feel more confident going out without needing foundation to give me a more consistent colouring.

Love it! Thank you!!

I had the chance to try this product for free via the Chick-Advisor Product Review Club. It's difficult to assess skin care products after only a couple of weeks of use. I stopped using all of my other skin care products to get the most realistic experience of these products.
The serum was rich, silky and hydrating and I loved the texture and how it made my skin feel. My skin felt very smooth after application.
Within a few days of use, my normally pasty and pale complexion had a rosy glow.
The product is pricey and the main deterrent to purchasing in the future. But I will keep my eye out for sales.
