Vichy Idealia Smoothing & Illuminating Cream (Day Cream)

We received Vichy’s Idealia Day Cream in our September Glossy Box, it’s a brand we’ve heard much about but were yet to try.

Created for normal to combination skin types, the cream is supposedly suitable for sensitive skin to, but one of our testers found this aggravated her sensitive skin and caused some redness, so please do a patch test if you suffer any type of skin sensitivity.

Our other testers found the cream very good, all noticing an improvement in skin texture – skin appeared smoother and healthier – and most said they would buy it in place of their current day cream.

It’s not the cheapest of brands, but it is reasonably good value, especially if you can find it on offer (Escentual often have a good discount on Vichy products).

Definitely worth trying if you’re looking to improve skin texture.

The Day Cream we tried in 2012 has been updated and renamed to “Smoothness & Glow”, the new range of Vichy Idealia is available from:
