I received this product for free to provide a review on chickadvisor. I am so happy to get this opportunity to try Vichy for free (and a generous full size). First thing I noticed is a nice texture that isn't too thick, and pink colour, then the smell. It's a bit strong and I believe unnecessary to have this much fragrance, which I distinguished to be like Versace Bright Crystal perfume. I like this perfume but not on my face. My husband says this cream smells like smoke (from cigarettes )!! And I do NOT smoke.
The results after about one week of use during night, I noticed in the mornings I have some dry areas returning (I think my face rubs the pillow) so the cream might not be absorbing very effectively. I wait about half hour after applying to go sleep. My skin is combination - oily at times but dry other times, and occasionally breaks out.
The good experience I saw with my skin in the morning was more even tone, I usually have red areas around my nose and cheeks and it didn't seem as noticeable anymore. Also a brighter complexion (no makeup, my skin looks a bit glowy) which i like.
I think I will try other Vichy products for the results i liked here, but smell them to find a mild or unscented type, and I think the price is a bit high if the product doesn't meet all the consumer's needs (I want better absorbtion and moisture). I don't see ingredients on the jar I received, I would like to know them if I buy a product.

I wish I had more time to review this product, as I feel that you have to use for a couple of months before you see any difference. The smell is great and you don't have to use much to cover your face. I haven't seen any drastic changes in my skin, but again that may change after using it for a month or so. It definitely keeps my skin hydrated throughout the night and I sometimes don't even have to use a moisturizer in the morning. I definitely will use this until it's done and will add another review at that time! I am new fan to Vichy products and will buy other products in the future. Thanks Chick Advisor!

Having very oily and acne-prone skin in my mid-40's is not what expected to still be dealing with at this stage in my life. However, that's the skin I've got and I have to work with it. That being said, I was worried before trying this product that it may make my skin break out. All seemed to be well after using for about 3 days but then, I started to get pimples and break out way more than normal. My chin and cheek areas were the worst. I didn't want to give up on the product so I continued to use it for one week, applying morning and night, hoping that my skin would get used to it. Unfortunately, it did not.

I'm so disappointed because I really wanted to be able to use Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep and have it be effective as I know they make excellent, high-quality products. It's also difficult for me to review this and not be able to give it the 5 stars I so wanted to. It's really not entirely Vichy's fault as I do have sensitive skin which is prone to break outs but this product did not help me and sadly, made my situation worse. Therefore, I can only recommend this product to those who do not struggle with sensitive, adult acne-prone skin types.

I used this after using the Idealia Life Serum and it had a nice texture.. It didn't seem greasy and it went onto my skin smoothly. My skin didn't feel dry shortly after like some poor quality moisturizers do. The one downfall to this is the scent! It is giving me a headache and I am actually going to have to go wash it off my face before I go to bed :( It smells pretty, kind of reminds me of roses a bit, but I cant stand it when cosmetics have scents to them. If I want scent on my body, I will get perfume. Facial cremes should not be scented, in my opinion. This also felt like a relatively middle of the road moisturizer in comparison to some others which I have tried and much prefer to this (Beauticontrol's Defend & Restore Moisture Night Creme is my go to.) Unfortunately, I am going to have to pass this on to a friend, because I will definitely not use it again.

Product has lovely texture and is smooth to apply.
I really liked the "gel" like consistency of product.
I did like the feel of my skin after application and product had been absorbed.
Did not notice any great change to my skin, but it was enjoyable to use.

**I received this product to try for free**

I have never tried a specific cream for night time before (just the same serum/moisturizer combo for day and night) but was excited to try this product, based on their claims.
I unfortunately did not see increased hydration (thus far). I do see a bit of improvement in skin tone, but nothing extravagant, and that could be the result of using the Vichy Idealia Serum with it.

It had a nicer smell than previous products I've used but I won't be recommending the product to friends or family. I will also likely switch back to my previous product once this container is empty.

So when I got this product I was super excited because I had read so many great reviews about it. The first night, I washed my face with my favourite cleanser, patted it dry and went ahead to use this. Right off the bat I noticed how sticky the cream is, it honestly felt like I was putting wax on my face! After a few seconds, I noticed my skin feeling tingly and my eyes started watering. The smell was also horrible. I decided to leave it on and see how it goes through the night. The next morning when I woke up I splashed my face with cold water because my skin felt really dry and tight. When I looked at my face I noticed a huge pimple on my forehead, and smaller pimples around my nose, lips, and between my eyebrows. I thought that maybe I put too much cream on so the next night I put less on, and kept at it for a few days. I finally stopped a couple days ago because the pimples were not clearing up and to be honest I hated the sticky feeling this cream left on my face. Within a couple days my skin had cleared up!!! Bottom line I was really dissapointed by this cream, if you have frequent breakouts due to facial creams then avoid this at all costs!!!! This was so bad (along with the serum) that I wouldn't even give it to anyone else to try out.

I'll just stick to my Marcelle night cream that has lasted my forever and makes my skin feel amazing and looking refreshed when I wake up!

I have been using this product for about a week in conjunction with the serum thanks to the product review club and am struggling with it. I have sensitive and dry skin. Dry skin products tend to make my skin oily so I was really excited about the claims that this line makes--it sounded like it would work great for me and I had the opportunity to try a premium product without having to spend a lot of money.

The first night, my skin felt super moisturized and hydrated although a bit sticky. By the next evening, I had started breaking out. Even though nothing else had changed in my skin care routine I was hoping that these products were not causing the pimples. I am now using the serum once a day and the cream every other day. My skin is clearing up but it isn't looking or feeling any better than it was with my previous products.

I am going to try for another week, but I think this line is too heavy for my skin. Unless I experience a remarkable change in the next few days, I am going to shelve it and try again in the fall. It may work better in drier weather.

I received this via the product review club.

The first night was quite exciting. I had forgotten how good Vichy products smell, and the texture was just right for my combination skin. I woke up the next morning with my skin feeling good instead of overly greasy. I have been using it for about a week.

But then we had a heat wave. I'm not sure if it's the product or the heat, but I have broken out on my forehead and chin, in a way that is very unusual for me. Because of the different kind of zits, I think it was the product, but it could also very likely be in combination with the heat. I'm putting it back in the cupboard until the fall when I will try it again. I really hope it works!

Sadly I had a bad reaction to the product. I used it in combination with the SkinIdealia Serum. Was so excited about it, got it free from @chickadvisor and was stoked to be part of this campaign!
Applied it in the evening, and woke up to bright red patches on my face. Continued to use the product in the hopes of things getting better, but it did not happen, the redness never disappeared until after I reverted to my usual facial routine. So unfortunately this product is a no for me. I am disappointed, it smells really nice, it's so easy to apply, it has great texture, it absorbs nicely, and the packaging is just luxurious. Too bad my skin is oversensitive to what is in the product :(
