Two new items from Vichy on my make up desk are:

– Vichy Aqualia Thermal Night Spa ($48)

– Vichy Ideal Whitening Replumping Gel Cream ($59)

Both products are already available in stores.

First up, the Aqualia Thermal Night Spa. I love sleeping pack because they are so easy to use and I can pamper the skin by just applying a layer of mask before sleeping. It sounds so effortlessly~ I think all Singaporean should at least own a sleeping mask because of the very dry and humid weather here in Singapore, we tend to sleep in air-conditioned rooms at night.

Use this mask for a rested, radiant and beautiful skin. It is formulated with Hyaluronic Acid and Aquabioryl, known to replenish the skin with hydration and form a protective film. Essential oils are also injected into the mask to rejuvenate and erase signs of fatigue.

For people who don’t like sleeping with a mask on, you can also use this Night Spa as your night time moisturizer.

I would recommend you to mask once every 3 days for 10-15 minutes. The texture is not as thick as what it looked like. As the name says, Aqua and Aqua means water. It has a watery gel texture and gets absorbed quickly. As for fragrance wise, NOT BAD! It smells refreshing but has a little hint of herbs.

I realized that this mask works better on James than me as results were seen on his skin faster. I guess this must be due to his late sleeping habits and hectic work life. He woke up with healthier and supple looking skin after 2 weeks of application. No breakouts were experienced during the 2 weeks.

Ideal White is their latest range to replace Bi-Med White and I have already blogged about the range here:

Also mentioned in the previous entry, it was one of my favourite item in the entire range and it has a gel based that is neither too sticky nor too rich for the skin.

True enough, the product didn’t disappoint me! My face looks brighter and healthier. I am currently still using it hoping to achieve flawless luminosity.

Also because I used to fish quite frequently in the past, my arms are darker than my body and my face so I am thinking of applying it to my arms as well. How pampering right? I can literally hear my arms crying for joy!!

It has a very pleasant scent, like all the other products in this range. I use it on a daily basis, both times after the essence every day and night.

If you’re looking for something that whitens and brightens, do give this gel-cream a try 🙂

Find them and grab them off the shelves because they are already on sale islandwide. Oh, did I mention? I am a huge fan of their Normaderm range too! Friends who visit me can find them on my desk anytime! Hehe.

Had tea with Team Vichy for their Ideal White range. Thank you Sugar (Elaine) for bringing me along!

I am so so so going to miss her when she is in confinement 🙁

Anyway, the launch was for their New Ideal White which boosts the skin metabolism to reach fairer skin.

Like any part of our body, metabolism starts to deteriorates as we age. And when the metabolism slows down, cell repair = skin repair and collagen production slows down as well. The damage can be irreversible or reversible. Dark spots, dull or yellow skin tone can also surface.

Vichy Ideal White to the rescue!!! The scientist investigated on the mechanisms of pigmentation disorders and found out that the cause of it was the metabolic flow of melanin. 3 stages to take note:

1) Melanin production
2) Melanin diffusion
3) Melanin expulsion

In a nut shell, if your cells are loaded with melanin, dark spots will be more visible and it can worsen the effects of pigmentation.

And what does Ideal White do? The new Metabolic Whitening complex works well with the 3 stages natural life cycle while targeting the other influencers of pigmentation disorders.

The complex is made up of:

– PhE-Resorcinol: Powerful whitening agent. Lighten pigment blotches, imperfections and even out skin tone

– Ellagic Avid: Antioxidant, whitening. anti-pollution and anti-inflammatory agent. Defend skin against sun.

– Adenosine: Anti-aging and whitening.

– LHA: Exfoliation, increase skin renewal, aids in desquamation by accelerating the expulsion of melanin from the skin. Smooths and refines skin.

I have yet to try all the products yet but I am hoping to do a review on them soon.

Some of my current take of the products so far, they are pleasantly scented. I can’t describe what do they smell like but I pretty much like the scent of it.

The essence kind of a cream base but it has a watery texture and nowhere near greasy.

The Ideal White Whitening Re-Plumping Gel Cream was one of my favourite that afternoon because I love gelish products. It doesn’t look too rich for my skin to cause any breakout and offers whole day hydration and flawless luminosity.

Happy ladies all thanks to Team Vichy!

The range will be available in Derma Center (Westgate), Guardian and Unity from March 2015 onwards. However…. as they are Watsons exclusive for the first few weeks, you can already find them in selected Watsons!

Fairer skin… Who doesn’t want it?
