Let's get lifted with Vichy.

I received few free samples of this from Dischem; on my birthday no less.

I think it's been a week now and I have not seen much of a difference in my skin. I have noticed however, a change in the texture, look and feel of my skin with a tinge of a light glow.

I wanted to try this specifically on the areas where I think I might be getting crow's feet and, so far, so good. These appear to be much softer and less visible.


In the course of this week, I will upload my blog and some pics. I decided to save the best for last. This cream I use mostly at night together with my Vichy Ideal sleep night cream. The products are very mild and I can feel the moisturising effect on my skin. Left overnight, I have a fresh face the following morning.


Vichy is a good product but, it's quite expensive. However, quality does come at a price I suppose.

This is my delayed 10-day review!

After ten days of using the product I can officially give a more accurate "product effectiveness" review. Since receiving the serum I've been applying it to my problem area (under eye) in the evenings and mornings. I did some skip some evenings when I got home late and collapsed onto the bed.

REVIEW:

In my first review I mentioned in length about appearance and the overall quality of Vichy Liftactiv serum. The fact that it absorbs really well, smells great and it's suitable enough for sensitive skin types (like mine!)


Overall: I see significant improvement

What has improved?

I have hereditary under eye bags, which annoy me cause they always make me look super tired and sleepy. To make matters worse my under eye skin is also discoloured, making my bags even more apparent.

I don't feel my expectations were unrealistic I was hoping/expecting the serum would, at the least clear the discolouration and tighten my under eye area. It did just that, not to the extent I was hoping for but enough to make a noticeable difference.

Results:
- The skin under my eye is much more even toned than when I started
- Under eye skin is slightly firmer
- Sun spots disappeared (this wasn't necessarily on my radar but I'm glad it helped)

General:
10 days is a considerably short time to see results so I'm quite pleased. Looking forward to see what my skin will look like in a months time.

Check out the video to see before and after results and more.

The first thing that took my attention when I opened the slick light to carry bottle, was my surprise and excitement over the dropper. Before I read the package, I already wanted to see how it works! To me, that spells out HEALTH because a dropper is all about hygienic packaging and minimizing cross infections ....yippee to that!

I then decided that my first application will be in the morning a few days after I had all the medication out of my system (I didn't want to mess up anything). It is also best time for me because I come out of exercising then and my blood flow is at its peak.
The creamy white and luxurious soft to the touch serum, glides off my fingers and across my facial skin without any hard work to it.

It is very much hydrating and feels cool immediately against the face. I am planning to stick to working it into my my morning routine even in days to come. I am targeting my forehead and around my lips / mouth more than any other areas. I am excitedly waiting to see it live up to every expectation......

I am expecting to see a lift beneath my eyes and minimize my pores. At the end, I am looking forward to a refreshed healthy looking younger skin!

.....Here is to the next 10 days and exciting videos to come!

Highlights so far:
* It contains no parabens.
* It is non-irritating (Hypoallergenic).
* An easy to use dropper (Hygienic).
* It is lightly fragranced.
* It is easily absorbed into the skin.
* It feels luxurious and sift to the touch.

Product review:
Vichy Liftactiv Serum 10 Supreme. The Youth Power Serum Accelerated Renewal.

This is officially my first review so I'm really excited. This is a review of my first application of the Vichy Liftactiv serum 10 Supreme. Although I'm not looking to turn back the clock just yet, I would really like to improve my under eye area which has taken a toll from over night study sessions. Over time I have developed under eye discoloration and bags. I'm hoping this product will help improve the appearance therefor.

Appearance:
Appealing, clean and eye-catching, true to the Vichy brand. The light grey bottle is in the form of a dropper which helps apply the product and will be very useful when you have to get to the last drops at the bottom. .

Smell:
Has a simple and elegant but not over powering fragrance which is good because I'm not a fan of fragrances in my facial products. I prefer clean and simple but effective.

Feel/touch:
I'm always apprehensive when applying new products as my skin is very reactive and sensitive, however I've had this on the whole day and it hasnt negatively affected my skin, caused a break out or made my skin oily (which it is prone to). After a +-10 minutes its like its not on at all, facial elasticity is good and neither is it dried out.

Its of medium consistency, not too thick or thin and absorbs well into the skin.

Effectiveness:
Feedback to follow after another few days of use, since this is only my first application I can't gauge or measure how effective it is yet, but the box says : visible results as of 10days " so I'm looking forward to the results.

Special Notes:?
- If you have oily skin like me, you can apply this product on its own without moisturizer for daytime and nighttime use.
- If you have dry skin, you can still apply the product before your usual daily moisturiser.

Check back in soon...
