It has the same milky consistency and the same smell as the Vichy Idéalia Skin Sleep Gel-Balm. It also has a shimmer inside the cream (almost like a holographic sheen). I would imagine this acts like a toner? This cream absorbed very fast into my skin and i automatically felt my skin a little tighter then before. It also left my skin with an even skin tone and made it a hue darker in colour. Looked as though I had spent an hour outside in the sun! My skin didn't feel greasy and felt like I was't wearing anything!

This product comes with a push pump and one pump gives you just enough product to cover your face! They say on the product card to apply this idealizer morning and night under your moisturizer or treatment cream.

I received a free Vichy Idealia Life Serum as part of the product review club. I have been using it for over a week, and already my skin looks and feels smoother. My skin usually has little bumps under the surface, and there are less of those already. It also leaves my skin feeling very soft. I like the light scent, not too strong, but pleasant. It goes on easily and absorbs quickly, with no greasy or sticky feeling. I like the pump dispenser, as it is easy to get just the right amount. It irritated my skin after using it a few days, so I stopped using it for a couple of days and then started using it again, and it hasn't bothered me again. I wouldn't ordinarily spend this much on a face cream, but I might make an excpetion for this one, I love it!

I received this product from ChickAdvisor in exchange for a review(s). I was so excited to receive it.

The product comes in a very beautiful pump bottle that dispenses the right amount each time.

I have been using the Vichy Idealia Life Serum, along with the Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep, for over a week now. It is always hard to notice a difference in only a week, but so far my skin feels smoother. The consistency is very nice and you don't need to use a lot. It has a nice, light smell (and I am not fond of products that give off a strong smell) and absorbs quite well. I would consider buying it except the cost is a bit too pricey for me.

Recently I received this product as a bonus to try (for free!). I was super impressed with how light the Vichy Idealia Life Serum is, and how lovely is smells.

It made my skin noticeably smoother almost right away. My cheeks, chin & forehead looked smoother with my foundation on, and my skin didn't look shiny after a few hours. My husband even kept touching my face remarking how soft it was.

I did have some struggles with minor breakouts but nothing really bad, if you aren't someone who's acne prone then I would say you'd be just fine using this. My skin is particularly prone to breakouts.

I received this for free as part of the product review club.
I have combination skin that can definitely look tired now that I'm in my thirties. I found this serum to agree with my skin (didn't cause breakouts or irritation). That being said, I found the fragrance quite strong and could see that bothering sensitive skin.
It applied smoothly and my skin is quite smooth and silky with use. I also like the slight iridescent shimmer - very pretty when you're getting ready for bed.
Overall it's a nice product with the fragrance being the main negative for me.

I received this product complimentary from the Chick Advisor Product Review Club.

I'm just finishing my first week of using this, in conjunction with the Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep. I like this serum as it helps to brighten my complexion. I also prefer this serum over the Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep, as I don't find it as heavy. This one absorbs into the skin much better.

The pink tone of the serum, along with illuminating properties gives a nice radiant finish.

Skin feels smooth and plump.

I did get a couple of small breakouts, but I think it was due to my skin adjusting to a new product.

not only did this refresh my skin . but was amazing at reducing the saggy water bags under my eyes from allergies . i didnt notice the difference at first when i recieved my Vichy life serum a week ago . but now i am MORE than pleased with it , thank you chick advisor for my free tester sample :)

Vichy Idealia Life Serum makes your skin feel great. Price seems high but really you only need a few dabs so I imagine it will last a while. I notice a difference in only 1 week. My skin doesn't "soak up" my foundation as usual. The serum sort of acts like a primer and I like that. I will definitely use from now on.

I received this in part of the Vichy Idealia skin sleep. It states it was suppose to diminish the appearance of fine lines, hydrate, etc.

The first time using it was in combination with the Skin Sleep. I dont have much of a skin care routine, just basic cleanser and drugstore moisturizer.

I have used this for over a week in combination with the Skin sleep, and the appearance of my smile/laugh lines are reduced, and it has helped with my under eye bags as well. A little goes a long way with this product i noticed.

I have sensitive skin, and this did not cause any irritation either, which was nice.

In combination with the skin sleep, I feel comfortable wearing no foundation and just a little powder where i tend to get oily. My skin is hydrated and feels refreshed.

Thank you to Chik Advisor for giving me the opportunity to review this product, I love it!

I got to try this product for free from Chick Advisor. I love the way this light product feels under my makeup. It isn't greasy and my sensitive skin doesn't react to it. My only issue is the price is a bit high for me to buy regularly.
