    Really enjoyed this product! I love the soft shimmer in this product that makes the skin look radiant right after application. It dries down to a radiant finish with a powdery soft feel to the skin, which I love!
    My skin feels extremely soft and hydrated, and looks radiant.
    However, I did not notice any improvement in pore size nor discolouration on the skin.

    Overall, I do really like this product due to the radiant look it gives my skin!

    I received this free with the Idealia Skin Sleep Mask, and they worked really well as a pair! Super hydrating, like my skin just drank a lot of water!

    I have sensitive skin and finding and using the right skincare products is very challenging to find.
    This product surprisingly works well with my very sensitive skin.
    Works well when applied before your moisturizer.
    Feels very hydrating and keeps my skin soft in the morning.
    Def recommend this product to someone that is sensitive and dry/combination skin types.

    I used this along with the Skin Sleep gel balm and it worked great as a pair. I used this serum especially on my under eyes and they light bags and circles almost disappeared. My skin seemed to tighten up after applying the serum and felt very refreshing on my skin going to bed. Would purchase this again for sure

    I received this free to test along with the Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep and have been using the products for approx 2 weeks, starting from when I received them.
    The serum isn't heavy on the face and did not irritate my sensitive, fair skin. I have been applying this before my makeup and found that it didn't leave me shiny. I have oily skin and if I forget my primer, my makeup usually comes off or looks like an oil slick after a few hours. I was impressed though that the days I used only the serum under my foundation, my makeup actually stayed put for most of the day.
    The product has a sort of pink pearly sheen to it. You can see the shimmer a bit on your fingers after applying it. It makes for a fresh look to my skin but don't worry it does not leave your face sparkly. I would not use a product if it made my face all shimmery. I was not expecting to but I actually really like the serum and how it makes my face feel.
    Two weeks isn't long enough I'm sure to tell what the full effects will be but I'm pleased. I haven't had any breakouts from it either.

    Disclosure: As a member of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club, I received this product for free for the purpose of evaluating it. Although Vichy Idealia Life Serum is an anti-aging skin product developed for women, both the female and male members of my household evaluated the product. The serum was evaluated over a period of ten days. It should be noted that the members of our household are sun lovers (even though we realize the damaging effects of the sun). Also, we eat healthy, don't smoke, and are fitness-conscious. Here are our thoughts about the product:

    Product Claims:
    - Paraben free.
    - Capable of promoting "a good skin behavior".
    - Promotes even and illuminated complexion.
    - Promotes refined-looking pores.
    - Promotes rested facial features.
    - Good for all skin types.

    Directions for use:
    Apply morning and night, under your moisturizer or treatment cream.

    Product packaging:
    The product came in an attractive pearly pink rectangular box. The serum itself is stored in an aesthetically pleasing pink glass pump-applicator. The applicator is well designed in that it helps reduce waste and allows you to use the serum sparingly. Also, the applicator is well-balanced and easy to hold.

    Description of the serum:
    The serum is white and opaque. It is non-oily/greasy. It goes on smooth and is quickly absorbed into the skin. The serum has a very pleasant mild fragrance of jasmine and green tea that doesn't linger for hours after the serum has been applied to the skin. The serum's fragrance was well-liked by all the members of our household, and it was mild enough for the male member of our household to feel comfortable using the product.

    Thoughts from the female member of our household:
    I suffer from dry skin, age spots and freckles, an uneven complexion, and wrinkles around my eyes and mouth. My facial skin has been affected by stress/fatigue, mainly due to lack of sleep and sun exposure. The serum was easy to apply and it didn't irritate my skin. After using the serum for a few days, my facial skin was noticeably smoother and the wrinkles on my face were less prominent. After 10 days of using the serum, the skin on my face felt a little tighter, yet it was smooth, soft and hydrated. All in all, the serum brought a more youthful appearance to my face. My only disappointment with the serum was that it did little to make the age spots on my face less visible.

    I have been using Olay Definity re-energizing serum, and I would say that Vichy Idealia Life Serum has produced slightly superior results, especially in making the wrinkles on my face less visible.

    I would recommend Vichy Idealia Life Serum to a family member and/or friend who can afford it. It really works! I would consider purchasing it (at a lower price preferably) in the future as a treat to myself. I would certainly consider purchasing it as a gift for a family member and/or friend.

    Thoughts from the male member of our household:
    I have an olive skin tone and combination skin. Also, I suffer from an uneven complexion, crow's feet, age spots, blackheads, and whiteheads. My facial skin has been affected by stress/fatigue, mainly due to lack of sleep and exposure to UV rays. I was very surprised at how fast the serum produced positive results. After only 3 days of use, most of the whiteheads on my face disappeared and the crow's feet near my eyes were less visible. Also, the blackheads on my cheeks and nose were less noticeable. The skin on my face began to feel smoother only hours after applying the serum for the first time. The skin around my cheeks was especially smooth to the touch after applying the serum for 10 days.

    I have been using Garnier PureControl Deep Pore Exfoliating Cream Scrub to unclog pores, remove sebum excess, and deal with uneven skin texture. This product is quite abrasive/harsh on one's face. In contrast, Vichy's Idealia Life Serum is a much less harsh/abrasive. I have been using Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion to hydrate/moisturize my skin. I believe Vichy's Idealia Life Serum does an equally good job of hydrating/moisturizing my skin.

    I would recommend Vichy Idealia Life Serum to a family member and/or friend who can afford the expense of purchasing this high-end anti-aging skin product as it's effective and eliminates the need to buy multiple skin care products to achieve the same benefits. I'm eager to try Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum for men because of my positive experience using Vichy's Idealia Life Serum.

    I was one of the lucky ones to receive this from the ChickAdvisor for free to review. I have been using this everyday, for almost three weeks, morning and night. I really like the scent and texture of this product. It feels very light and makes my skin very hydrated. Does it even my skintone and refined my pores? Not that I can tell. Maybe if I continue using this I will be able to see. A little does really go along way. Is this the best serum out there? Probably not. Would I spend $59 on this? I don't know. It is probably one of the more expensive skin can item that I own. If you have the money and don't mind spending it then you should try this but if you are on a budget, you are not really missing out on anything. I do really like the packaging though. I think its made out of glass and is frosted with pink. It is probably my favourite skincare bottle ever.

    I received this product free as part of the review club. Paired with the skin sleep product as new parts of my daily routine, my skin is definitely brighter and more moisturized.

    I received this product from the Chick Advisors Review Club. I have used the Idealia Life serum before and I love it. I only use this in the morning because it contains light reflecting pearls and it gives the skin a beautiful healthy glow. My skin looks fresh, rested and luminous, like I actually went to bed on time. I have noticed my skin is also a lot smoother and even. You don't need to use a lot of the serum so it should last for a while.
