    I received this product through ChickAdvisor. I believe that this product did quite a good job cleansing my face over the past 4 weeks (I tried taking makeup off with it, and also sunscreen after a day at the beach!) I like that the product is in a pump and easy to use. I also like the scent of this product. I tend to like when products give that totally clean feeling after cleansing, and this product did just that. I did not feel like this product made my skin shiny or left any residue. Overall, this is a very good product and I would recommend!

    Very nice smelling and didn't leave my skin feeling dry or tight. Foamed nicely for easy coverage. However, my acne was almost instantly worse and i had red scaly patches all over my face and eyelids by day 7. I did like the oil control of the system though.

    I received this product courtesy of chickadvisor for review. I have always have combination and acne prone skin. Prior to this cleansing gel I have been using neutrogena cleanser. I have to say after using Vichy normaderm deep cleansing gel my face feels very soft. The gel also smells really nice and wasnt harsh on my skin. It did not leave my face feeling tight and did not leave any drying effect. I really like this gel and would probably purchase it again.

    I received the Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing Purifying Gel free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I got this as part of the sensitive skin package. My skin is fairly sensitive, and thought this could be a good product to try and deal with some of my blemishes.
    The first thing I noticed was the intense perfume smell. Almost all other items I have ever used for sensitive skin either have little to no smell or a very organic/natural smell. For someone who is sensitive to perfumes this already put me off, but I still tried it. I actually tried the whole package for two weeks and my skin reacted - I broke out terribly. Unfortunately I had to stop using the gel. The product itself did leave my face feeling clean, so for other people I am sure this is a great product.

    As part of the Product Review Club, I was given the chance to test out Vichy Acne Care Kit. The Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing Purifying Gel claims it is "an ultra gentle soap free, alcohol free cleansing gel deeply cleanses sebum and impurities without over drying or irritating the skin. Its ingredients have purifying, antibacterial and keratolytic actions to help prevent new imperfections from popping up". I really enjoyed using this cleanser. The fragrance of the cleanser has a pleasant smell and it does live to the claims that is a gentle soap that is not over drying to the skin. I found that when I wash my face, my face did not feel tight or dry. I felt like to cleanser did clean my skin, well. I don't know if clean my sebum well, but I does remove makeup well. I would recommend this cleanser to any with combination, oily skin and acne prone skin. I have not tried a cleanser that is similar to this.

    Overall, I really enjoyed this cleanser and I would probably repurchase this cleanser, because it is what I look for in cleanser to make sure that my combination skin is hydrated. This cleanser is part of the water line, so it cleans and hydrate the skin. I would recommend people to try Vichy line.

    I have been using this cleanser for two weeks, so this is my mid-week review.

    I was so excited to get chosen and to receive Vichy Normaderm. I have oily skin and I tend to get tiny pimples or bumps that I lovingly call pimplets, mostly during and around my period. I love how the Deep Cleansing Purifying Gel cleans my face. I love the fresh smell and how it lathers nicely. It's gentle and rinses off very easily. My skin does not feel tight after cleansing, which tells me that it does not dry out my skin. You do not need a lot of product for it to lather and clean effectively.

    My husband also tried Normaderm with me. He has acne prone skin, and he also liked how it cleaned his face. He said his skin felt less oily after using it.

    Together with the other products in Normaderm, I noticed that my pimplets go away a little faster. My husband, on the other hand, had his skin under control (only a couple of pimples) BUT experienced a worse breakout (his whole right cheek flared up, with random pimples on his face) while trying out Vichy Normaderm. His acne and blemishes subsided once he returned to his previous regimen.

    I received this product for free in exchange for an honest review from Chick Advisor as a member of the Product Review Club.

    This product is great. I have combination skin so if I"m not using the right product, some areas of my face get really dry. This product doesn't dry out my skin. It just feels clean and fresh. I would recommend this

    I recieved this product through the CA Product Review Club. I thought this product did a great job at cleaning my face over the past 4 weeks (makeup, sweat, sunscreen, etc) I like that the product is in a pump and easy to use. It doesn't have an overpowering scent. I also found that there was no residue left on the skin after simply rinsing with water. I noticed that it gave my skin almost a "matte" look but due to the humid weather we've been having it never lasted very long. I am not sure that it made a noticeable difference in my skin but I will continue to use the product and see if after 8 weeks I notice any change.

    Now I personally have hated gels in the past, however this one is very easy to apply and wash off, feels smooth and refreshing (although could argue to others feeling more refreshing, but those ones dry my skin out really bad), and you do not need to use much of the product.

    The entire routine is nice and fast, especially considering how easy this stuff washes off. I have seen great progress using all three products in this line and I don't plan on switching as even though my acne comes from food allergies, I have seen a great reduction in the severity and frequency of my breakouts!

    Worth the buy!
