I tried this Vichy Idealia Energizing cream in hopes that I could find a not-so-expensive alternative to my favorite Biotherm Skin Oxygen Cooling Gel (I'm looking for products that provide a "healthy glow" effect) and I was not disappointed. Like Biotherm cooling gel, this product also gives a really nice glow to the face. My skin looks brighter and healthier after a couple of weeks of using this cream. I consider this product as a great addition to my skincare routine. This one provides better hydration and evens out the skin tone.
Pros:
-Creamy light texture
-Brightens the skin instantly
-Provides a "healthy glow" effect
- Evens out skin tone, refines pores
Cons:
-has a strong floral scent

My ever favorite face product since I started using this last October 2018. I would say that this is one of many face products that work well with combination/oily skin (like mine). This is a light-texture gel that hydrates the skin even during the winter season. It leaves a nice soft feeling without a weird or greasy feeling.
The best thing about this product is that it gives a really nice glow to the face. It instantly reduces the signs of stress! (It could be because of its cooling effect)
My go-to product especially on days that I am on a hurry and no time to put any make-up on.
~And I'm on my second jar now. ;)
Pros:
-Ideal for combination/oily skin (I did not experience any breakouts)
-Lightweight gel, absorbs quickly, no greasy feel
-Cooling effect that instantly freshens up the face
-The "healthy glow" effect!!!
Cons:
-a bit pricey ($60 for 50ml/1.69oz)
-has a faint alcohol smell
~I'm only giving 4.5stars for Quality and Effectiveness because I believe that there is always room for improvement!

I have been using this product for more than a month (day and night) and I did not notice any visible result. The product is suppose to correct dark spots without altering the natural skin tone. I use sunscreen at least SPF 30 during daytime to speed up the process. This is a CLARINS product and I was hoping it will deliver its promise. I bought this for $85 (50ml) and it is a total rip off. I will not repruchase this product again even if it goes on sale. I am very disappointed! -

This is byfar the best micellar water (designed for combination/oily skin) I've tried. I have been using this product for a month now and it did not cause any dryness or breakouts. There are times that I am too lazy to wash my face and this is a very effective alternative. It leaves a velvety smooth finish without a tight feeling.
This is product is worth trying! You can purchase a smaller bottle just to try this out. It is a game changer for me!!

I have never encountered a product similar to this before. It is a high quality moisturizer that can be used as a mask too. It has a creamy consistency which gives a nice smooth finish on top of the skin. For what it claims, it can be a nice make-up base too. The "radiance in a flash" is not actually noticeable but it will keep your skin moisturized all day. The packaging size is perfect too. It is a must-have beauty product! -
