I received the Vichy Idealia life serum free as part of the review panel. I like this product very much, I used it in tandem with Vichy Idealia skin sleep. It has a light floral scent that I enjoyed and the serum itself is very silky with a pearl look to it and is very lightweight on your skin. It goes on very smooth, a little goes a long way. It was very good for my dry skin, it made my face feel softer and look refreshed. Overall great a product that I will continue to recommend to my friends and family.
I received this free in the mail to try and LOVE IT! It has evened out my skin tone, helped with my dark circles and even started to shrink my pores. I highly suggest it! I have had a few breakouts but unsure if the two are related.
I was unable to use the product for a long period of time. When I took the cap off the bottle broke and I discontinued using it due to possible glass if it is glass in the bottle. What I did use it was silky smooth, did not need lots of product for coverage
First off I want to thank ChickAdvisor for the opportunity to review this product for free. its great that I can let people know what I feel regarding a product that i receive, so people know what they should invest their money on or not.
I haven't been using this serum for very long but I've been enjoying it so far. It helps to even and brighten while smoothing over the skin. Makes a good base for moisturiser too, finds that i'm using less moisurizer. The pump dispenses just over the right amount of product but that can be controlled depending on how much you press down. The bottle is appealing and there isn't much of a scent however I like it as its not overpowering. t's a bit pricey for what it is but I can see it lasting a while as I only use it in the mornings.
How did Life Serum perform based on its advertised benefits (e.g. increased hydration, smoother-looking skin, etc)?
Over the last two weeks, I would say it performed beautifully. Definitely increased hydration. My skin was smoother feeling and looking. I didn't really need a moisturizer after using it!
How did Life Serum perform compared to similar skin care products you have used in the past?
Life Serum outperformed many other serums I have tried. It was creamier and was not runny...YAY! I did not notice any reduced pigmentation as the jasmonic acid derivative claims to reduce it, but I may have to use the product longer for this to show.
Would you recommend Vichy Idealia to a family member and/or friend?
Yes, I would! I would not recommend it t people who have eczema, as it may irritate it. It irritated mine, but for those with minimally sensitive skin or normal to dry, this product may work well for you!
Is this a product you'd consider purchasing again?
I received this product for free to try and give my honest opinions. I would consider purchasing it though, depending on longer use results.
I received this product for free from the product review club and I am thrilled with the results. I have been using it for the past few weeks twice a day in conjunction with Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep. The idealia Life Serum smells amazing. The results I started to notice almost instantly, my pores appeared smaller, skin was hydrated and refreshed. My face felt skin felt amazing. The product is light and not oily. I have skin that can sometimes be incredibly sensitive to products/lotions/cleansers and I had absolutely no reaction to this product. I love VICHY and this idealia Life Serum is no exception
I have been using the Vichy Idealia Life Serum for a week now. Initially when I saw this product labelled as a "serum" I wasn't impressed as I was expecting a clear, oily like product that I thought would exacerbate my acne prone skin.
This product however was nothing like I expected. It was white with a lotion like consistency. It absorbed quickly into the skin and did not leave a sticky or oily residue. My skin tolerated this lotion very well as it didn't aggravate my acne prone skin or make my skin any oilier than usual.
The lotion is fragranced and reminds me of a green tea scent. It is pleasant and not overpowering.
I was using this serum daily after cleansing my face. I found that the product moisturized so well that I didn't need to apply a separate moisturizer. In fact I had been dealing with some dry patches on my skin due to the harsh acne products I use and found that the dry patches were well taken care of with this product.
I have noticed that my skin is softer and smoother with daily use but haven't yet noticed any further improvements to my skin at this point. Perhaps with continued use that will change.
Overall, I really liked this product but cannot justify the price tag for the softer, smoother and moisturized skin that I saw. I feel there are other products on the market with a lower price tag that would be just as effective. However, I would recommend this product to anyone to try as it really is a lovely product.
I received this product free of charge for review purposes.
I received this product to review from Chick Advisor along with the Idealia Skin sleep and I really liked it.
I felt it went on smoothly and easily both under my regular moisturizer and under makeup.
The formula is light, not greasy, and it did leave my skin feeling refreshed, hydrated, and almost luminescent, but it is comparable to other serums that are not as expensive. It's good and the packaging is lovely, but I'm not sure if it's worth the price.
I was lucky enough to receive this product to try through the product review club. I like it much better than the Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep that I also received and which causes me to break out.
The serum is nice and light where the Skin Sleep is heavy. The serum is quickly absorbed by my skin and leaves it feeling very soft. I have found that I can only use the serum once per day instead of the recommended twice per day. My skin is slightly dry but also sensitive and easily gets oily. This serum does not irritate my skin in any way and leaves my skin moisturized but not oily, as long as I only apply it once per day. After two weeks of use, I can't say that I see a reduction in the fine lines on my face, but my skin feels better. I wouldn't say that my skin looks like I've had 8 hours of sleep (with a toddler and an infant I can only wish) but it does look healthy and my skin tone might be slightly more even. I am happier with this serum than some others that I have tried.
I don't really like the scent, but I don't like the scent of any Vichy products. Fortunately the scent doesn't irritate my skin and it fades quickly so it's just a minor annoyance.
