Vichy Liftactiv Complete Anti-Wrinkle & Firming Care Review

RATINGS : 4.5 OUT OF 10

Hello beautiful ladies, today I am going to share the experiences on another Vichy product, Vichy Liftactiv Complete Anti-Wrinkle & Firming Care. It’s a product specially designed for the normal to combination skin types. Earlier too, I wrote the review on  Vichy Liftactiv Night for sensitive skin which you may read here.

The container is white in color, plastic made. It contains 50 ml of the product and costs INR Rs 1990. I bought this Vichy Liftactiv Complete Anti-Wrinkle & Firming Care for normal to combination skin online from a web store. It lasted for round about 20 days more or less.

What Vichy says about Vichy Liftactiv Complete Anti-Wrinkle & Firming Care? :-
Major Scientific progress : Scientific research has identified a source of young skin, a vital layer of the skin that helps generate fresh new cells in all surface layers.
Vichy Exclusive Innovation – 7 US Pat. Pending : For the 1st time, RHAMNOSE, an anti-wrinkle ingredient at 5% concentration, has been shown to help stimulate this source of young skin.
New-liftactiv complete anti-wrinkle & firming care with LASTING LIFTING EFFECT. Proven efficacy on wrinkles – forehead and neck wrinkles as well as crow’s feet.
Nourishing texture, non-greasy, non-sticky.
Enriched with Vichy Thermal water : soothing, fortifying & regenerating.

Vichy Liftactiv Complete Anti-Wrinkle & Firming Care has been made with the Derm Source Technology and contains 5% Rhamnose. There is a long list of ingredients present in the cream, however I am not mentioning that. So after using this product, the skin felt soft and supple for sure. So if you want a glowing skin, which makes you look younger, you may try this. But for the lifting effect, seriously I did not notice any great changes. As I said earlier too, I made my mother use a similar product from Vichy which was for sensitive skin. Now coming to the texture of the cream, it is very light-weight and not at all sticky or greasy. The cream is also white in color. The product was used daily, twice.

So, I would say this Vichy Liftactiv Complete Anti-Wrinkle & Firming Care for normal to combination skin is just an okay product. It wont work wonder ( at least it did not do when I made my mother test this!). Of course, I wont be re-buying this.

Vichy Liftactiv Night for sensitive skin

RATING : - 5 OUT OF 10

Hello girls, so after a long time I am back in the blogosphere again. Today I will be reviewing the Vichy Liftactiv Night for sensitive skin. Now, this sensitive skin cream is also similar to that of the other type, reviewed by me previously, except that this night cream is specially made for sensitive skin.
The Vichy Liftactiv Night cream for sensitive skin is a global anti-wrinkle and firming care skin cream which gives a long lasting lifting feel. The cream is hypoallergenic and contains Vichy Thermal Spa water. It is also free of paraben.
What Vichy says about the Vichy Liftactiv Night :-
Indication : Deep wrinkles, loss of firmness
Innovation : Scientific Research has identified the role of the DERM SOURCE – the compartment of the skin that helps regenerate youthful characteristics of the skin (firmness/smoothness). For the 1st time, RHAMNOSE, an anti-aging ingredient concentrated at 5%, helps stimulate activity in the DERM SOURCE, boosting the natural processes of the skin. In vitro test. 7 Pending patents.
Liftactive Night. Global Anti-Wrinkle & Firming Care
Efficacy : Skin looks immediately firmer and deep wrinkles appear visibly smoother. Proven efficacy on the appearance of wrinkles, on the forehead, crow’s feet, and neck. Long lasting lifted feel everyday.
Sensitive Skin : Tested under dermatological control. Hypoallergenic. With soothing and fortifying Vichy Thermal Spa Water. Paraben free.
Pleasure : Pleasant, non-greasy and non-sticky texture.
Ingredients :- Aqua, Glycerine, Rhamnose, Capric Triglyceride, Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil, Cetyl Alcohol, Zea Mays Starch, Cera Alba, Sulfonic Acid, Petrolatum etc
Vichy Liftactiv Night cream for sensitive skin costs INR Rs 2190 and comes in a pack of 50 gm. I got this online as I don’t think Vichy skincare products are available in my city in any outlets. It comes in a silver pack and the container is made up of glass, with blue colored body. Okay the container looks quite great!
Coming to the results obtained after using this Vichy Liftactiv Night cream for sensitive skin. The result was nothing close to awesome, but yes it takes care of some fine lines and provides a bit of lasting effect. But that’s all. If you use other anti-aging products, then this can be a good night cream, but if you are going to be solely dependent on this as your anti-aging and anti-wrinkle cream, I am afraid, you may have to look for some other better alternative.

Vichy Liftactiv Retinol Ha Review

I got this product more than a month back from an online shopping site. Vichy Liftactiv Retinol Ha is basically an anti-wrinkle serum. It costs INR Rs 1990 for 30ml. The product lasts for more or less a month. It provides total wrinkle renovating procedure care, as claimed by the company itself. The serum has filling action on the skin and also resurfacing effect which takes place immediately.

What Vichy claims about the Vichy Liftactiv Retinol Ha :-
Vichy identifies 3 wrinkle types:
-Permanent: deep grooves
-Reversible: that hollow out in the course of the day
-Embryonic: programmed to appear in time

Result : complete intervention on all wrinkle types, regardless of their stage.
How to use :- Use every morning over the entire face, avoiding the eye contour area.

Vichy Liftactiv Retinol Ha contains SPF 18 and that is the reason you can apply it in the daytime and go out for work or for shopping. However, I don’t think if you apply it during the night, it wont be having the same effect, so you may apply it at night too. As claimed by Vichy this product is supposed to give you “new skin-like results”. It has got hyaluronic acid as well as complexe retinol A.

Now, coming to the results obtained after using this skincare product, this delivers nothing exceptional but helps in maintaining the skin well. Vichy Liftactiv Retinol Ha could not effectively heal and reduce the wrinkles, but may be protected the skin to some extent from any further damage due to ageing. Or it might work effectively on some skin but not much on skin which is already under constant therapy and care.

So, Vichy Liftactiv Retinol Ha is an okayish product. In order to provide some extra care to the skin, this can be helpful! So try it out, if you want, and let me know.

Vichy Liftactiv Serum 10 Review

RATING – 9 OUT OF 10

Last month, I got this from my mother, and based on her opinions I will be reviewing this product, that is Vichy Liftactiv Serum 10. After, H2O+ products, I am making her try out Vichy skincare stuffs. Not all the anti-wrinkle products by the company are available in India, so whatever I get here I try to buy it for her. Anyways so let me begin.

What Vichy claims about Vichy Liftactiv Serum 10? : Major scientific breakthrough, 10 years of research –  pushing the boundaries of anti-ageing science. Scientific research has identified the role of DERM SOURCE, the compartment of the skin that helps regenerate youthful-looking characteristics of the skin (firmness/smoothness).

Vichy Exclusive innovation – 7 patents : For the 1st time, RHAMNOSE, an anti-ageing ingredient, HIGHLY CONCENTRATED at 10%, helps stimulate the activity of the DERM SOURCE that boosts the natural processes of the skin, in vitro test.

In 10 minutes, wrinkles appear visibly reduced. Skin texture feels transformed under your fingertips: softer and velvety smooth skin, pores look reduced.

In 1 month, advanced anti-wrinkle efficacy, long-lasting lifting feel. Ultra soft texture for sensitive skin. Hydrating and non-sticky texture. To be used day and night, alone or with your usual care.

Paraben-free

Tested under dermatological control. With Vichy Thermal Spa Water, soothing & fortifying.

A pack of 30 ml costs INR Rs 2500. Well, Vichy Liftactiv Serum 10 is a bit pricey, but I found the results to be quite good. The skin gets rejuvenated instantly as claimed by Vichy. Facial skin appears to be glowing and youthful. However, there was no long-lasting lifting feel after using the product for 1 month. There is a mild scent, and the serum absorbs fast into the skin, and does not make the skin greasy or oily. So even if you are oily skinned, you can use this product without worries. If used once a day, the product lasts for 1 month approximately. However, if we use it for 2 times in a day, then the product wont last for a month, I guess! Overall, this is a nice product.

Vichy Homme Liftactive Anti-Wrinkle Active Care Review

RATING : 7.2 OUT OF 10

After so many days I am writing a post here. Okay so today I am gonna do a review on Vichy Homme Liftactive Anti-Wrinkle Active Care. I was thinking for so long to write a review on this product, but due to my busy schedule I had to take a break from blogging. Anyways, lets get started.

The Vichy Homme Liftactive Anti-Wrinkle Active Care is priced at INR Rs 1590 for a pack of 30 ml. The cap is plastic made, while the body is made up of some metal. The outer packaging is black in color with some red blocks in it. The cover is paper made. The bottle is also black in color with white cap and white nozzle. There is a cap which when twisted opens fully and the nozzle comes visible which is exactly shaped as that of the cap. So yes it took some time for me to figure out how the thing comes out (as I did not go through the instructions given)! :D

What Vichy claims about Vichy Homme Liftactive Anti-Wrinkle Active Care? : Liftactive with hyaluronic acid, reference filler +AHA to revitalize skin.

24 Hr hydration.

Immediately, skin feels smoother. In 8 days, wrinkles appear visibly reduced. Revitalised, skin looks visibly younger.

Reduces the appearance of wrinkles.

How to use : 1. Unscrew the cap following the arrows.

2. Place the nozzle on your finger and gently press.

Now, coming to the results obtained after using the Vichy Homme Liftactive Anti-Wrinkle Active Care, the skin feels smooth and wrinkles appear less. The effects are nothing extraordinary, this product works that’s true, but I am not highly impressed with the results. The product is white in color, gellish lotion consistency. It absorbs very fast and is too light, not at all heavy or oily. So even if you have oily skin, this product can be useful for you. It has also got a light fragrance.
