I used this face cream in combination with the oil, so I am not 100 % sure of the effectiveness of Vichy Neovadiol Magistral. I usually like a face cream that has a little scoop or pump. It comes in a container where we use our fingers and gets under finger nails when taking the cream out. I used very small amounts both morning and evening, and waited several minutes before applying makeup, otherwise the foundation went on shiny, where it hadn't previously.

not too keen on this product. it can not be used as a day cream as it does not have any SPF in it. I did use it as a night cream and it was good for that. it was nice and thick and did make my skin soft, but most moisturizers do that. it was overly scented and I don't like to put scented products on my skin as scent will break down your skin. also the container is poor, jar containers let bacteria in and the product breaks down from oxidation, a pump jar would be preferred. it is over priced for a moisturizer without SPF. also, Vichy still tests it's products on animals, not cool! I spend my money on products that are cruelty free.

I received this product for free in order to test it and give you my honest and unbiased opinion.
I only used this a few times, as it was just too heavy for my skin. I couldn't use it under my foundation because it was not the right consisency for my skin. This may be perfect if you have dry mature skin. My skin is combination, so it didn't work out well for me. It is also a bit pricey, but I'm sure it would go a long way if used sparingly. I find a lotion works better for me and not a cream.
