You guys KNOW I’m a huge fan of Vichy products. I have been for years now and I’ve talked about the brand numerous times here on my blog and Instagram. I feel it’s important to be super transparent with you guys and because of my esthetician background, I always want to share quality products that truly fit what I believe in. Vichy is exactly that.
If you follow me on IG you probably see me posting on stories regularly and I’m usually talking about my Vichy regimen or products that I’m using daily. Today, however, I want to talk about a brand new product that I’ve incorporated into my routine and I’m SO excited to finally talk to you all about it – the Vichy LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum: Brightening Skin Corrector which is formulated with 15% Pure Vitamin C and Natural Origin Hyaluronic Acid.
Listen, I live for good, healthy skin. In fact, I live a very healthy lifestyle. That means, I focus my efforts on fitness, wellness, fresh food, eating well and you guessed it — a fresh face. I believe less is more and when you focus on yourself internally you don’t have to cover it up with all the “extras”…if that makes sense. I choose to wear very little to no makeup and instead focus on healthy skin and even beyond that — a great lifestyle. Incorporating the new LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum is now part of the first step in my morning skin care regimen so I can start my day with #goodmorningskin.
The Vichy LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum is a concentrated anti-agingskin care treatment that helps brighten and firm the skin in just 10 days. Remember: a serum is not a traditional moisturizer, it is a more concentrated formula that is meant to be applied before other products in your regimen. What I love most about it and something some of you may not know is that the Vitamin C in the product helps brighten the complexion, helps minimize fine lines and fights against skin aging caused by environmental stress. For me and my particular olive skin tone, Vitamin C helps me tremendously since I tend to get dark spots easily. What makes this Vitamin C Serum even more special is the fact that it contains 15% Pure Vitamin C (the normal range is 10-20%) and has Hyaluronic Acid to help hydrate and plump skin, making this Vitamin C Serum a dermatologist grade option at the affordable price of $28.50! It’s also paraben-free, fragrance-free and only 11 ingredients, making it great for all skin types, even sensitive skin! Vichy’s Vitamin C Serum makes a great addition to any anti-aging skin care routine.
One of the best part of all Vichy products is the Vichy Mineralizing Thermal Water that is included in all their formulas. It is uniquely rich in 15 minerals to fortify and protect the skin from environmental aggressors like pollution, stress and fatigue. Fun fact — I got to visit the Vichy volcanoes (from which the water comes from) when I traveled with the brand and it was truly a life changing experience I’ll never forget!
Here’s how a typical morning starts out in my life:
8am: Wake up, make my bed and all that good stuff.
8:10am: Wash my face using the Vichy Purete Thermale 3-in-1 One Step Cleanser. I’ll usually use this cleanser in the morning because it’s extremely gentle and my face is relatively clean from the night before.
8:15am: Next., I put 4 to 5 drops of the Vichy LiftActiv Vitamin C Serum in the palm of my hand then use my fingertips to apply it to my skin (avoiding the eye area). Remember: this is a serum so it goes after cleansing but before any moisturizer. I always let it sit for a few seconds to absorb before applying my moisturizer. Lastly, I usually apply my daily moisturizer. Try Vichy’s Mineral 89 Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer to plump, hydrate and fortify your skin!
8:20am: I usually get changed into my gym clothes then head downstairs, make my coffee and a healthy breakfast to start my day. A typical breakfast for me on a workout day is avocado toast (1 slice, ezekiel toast, avocado, topped with 1 egg & crumbled goat cheese). Then I’ll usually do my pre-workout and head to the gym!
That’s it! Like I said before, it’s very important for me to stay healthy and active and incorporate that mindset into all aspects of my life, including skin care. Once you start taking care of you mind, body and skin from the inside AND out, you will notice a huge difference in the way you feel about yourself and how little “extra” you need.
