I'm really impressed with the packaging of this night cream - it's quite hefty and feels luxurious. The moisturizer itself smells very sweet, almost like pomegranate and berries, but it dissipates quite quickly so it shouldn't bother you too much.

As for effectiveness, I really like how it makes my skin feel! As soon as I put it on, my skin feels refreshed and hydrated and it looks more awake too. I am really excited to keep using it to see how my skin looks after a month or so of using it.

I love the feel of this cream and the serum that came with it and count myself fortunate to have been chosen to try it for Chick Advisor. I have been using it nightly for the last few days and my skin is very soft and the moisture level seems to be very good. I recommend it.

i received this product from chickadvisor.com
This is the first time i have used a serum. after applying this to my face i felt it open my pores and my chin, nose and T-Zone which is always oily, was gone!
It helped even out my skin tone, hydrate my skin and helped with the fine lines under my eyes and on my forehead. it was also clearing up the acne I had on my cheeks.
It has a floral/fruity smell to it which I like.
This is a really great product and I will continue using it, the only problems are, I don't like the sparkles in the serum and it is pretty expensive.

The Vichy Idealia line is targeted to those who may not lead the best lifestyle (lack of sleep, bad eating habits, pollution, smoking, etc.). I have young children so I never sleep, eat too much sugar and don't drink enough water. Being almost 40, my skin has also become dull and lifeless as of late. I have been using this product for not quite a week, but am pleased with the results that I've already experienced. First the positives - this product has a bit of a unique balmy type gel which feels super hydrating and is easy to apply without using too much. The smell is pleasant and not overwhelming (my 4 year old daughter loves to snuggle in and sniff my face when I wear this!) It feels a bit tingly upon first application. In the morning, my skin looks smooth, clear, even toned with increased radiance.

There are only a couple of negatives - I had to really hunt down the product ingredients. They are nowhere listed on the packaging and I couldn't even find them on the Vichy English website. Ridiculous. Although the texture of the cream is lovely, it does leave a tackiness to the skin that lasts a good couple of hours after application.

Overall I am very happy with this product and will likely purchase in the future!

I would much rather prefer a non-jar packaging due to hygienic reasons, and it is pricey (over $50.00), but hey, you can't have everything. What’s most important is inside! Vichy promises to rebuilt and restored skin in the morning, even if you don’t have a “normal” sleep like me. I’ve been noticing a visible difference since I started using it and it is completely enough for my combo/oily skin. However, I like to add a drop of the Vichy Idealia Serum (also pricey) . It is suitable for women aged from 25-40 (I'm 31) with all skin types (I wouldn’t recommend it to those with acne or extremely oily skin though).

I received my box with this wonderful face cream. At first I smelled it to see if it was a tolerable scent and it was ok. I assumed it would be greasy but the texture but to my surprise it was not! It went on nicely and I instantly felt my face more hydrated. I have to wait and see what the end result will be with my skin.

I received this product to try through the Chickadvisor Product Review Club.

So far I have been really enjoying this cream. It has a sort of gel like texture but it is quite heavy. It absorbs quickly and my skin feels instantly quenched but a little sticky. Paired with the serum, when I wake up and look in the mirror my skin definitely appears more radiant and less dull and tired looking. I have only been using it for a few days now and i'm excited to see more changes. I don't, however, like the scent. I have very sensitive skin and prefer to you skin products that are fragrance free. That said, my skin has not been irritated by this product at all. I'm a little concerned that it will be too heavy for my oily skin in the summer but we will see! Overall, great product and I would definitely recommend it!

I have only been using this product for a couple weeks now but I love it. It is almost scent free and leaves my face feeling smooth and the color is even

Thank you Chick Advisor for the opportunity to review this creme. I was very excited to see it in the mail when I got home a few weeks ago.

Pros:
Smells great
goes on smooth with no greasy feel
my skin is fresh and dewy in the morning, even my forehead (it gets VERY dry)

Cons:
Its a tad expensive for me, but I will be saving my shoppers points in order to get another
there are no cons, I love this stuff!

I have tried this product for about a week now, and think it works well. When I wake up, I feel like my skin is super hydrated. I love that. It also feels more relaxed, smoother and less tired. I will definitely continue to use it.
Only down side, it is a bit over my budget, but definitely worth it!
