The 5 Must-Have Products That Will Solve All Your Summertime Skincare Woes
Vichy’s skincare essentials will keep your skin looking youthful, hydrated, and refreshed…
With the hottest months of the year upon us, it’s time to swap out those heavy creams and overnight moisture masks for products that are lightweight in formula and can give your skin a dose of hydration without clogging pores. Vichy’s summertime line is the perfect place to start.
Founded almost a century ago, the brand was established to act as a link between health and beauty, ensuring both women and men had access to skincare.
From gel cleansers that work to gently remove impurities and sweat without stripping your skin’s barrier, to lightweight serums that help combat the effects of aging and free radicals, Bazaar shares five of our favourite products from Vichy’s summer line.
Normaderm Phytosolution – Intensive Purifying Gel
This gel-like cleanser promises to remove any trace of dirt or pollution particles from your skin, leaving a mattified look – perfect for those who have oily and acne-prone skin. What’s more? It’s free from sulphates, soap and alcohol (so it won’t strip your skin’s natural barrier), while also containing probiotics and minerals to enrich one’s skin.
The cleanser also works to reduce pore visibility and blackheads, while also acting as an excellent make-up remover, helping to refine the skin’s texture through periodical use.

Mineral 89
This super hydrating serum is primarily composed of Vichy’s Mineralizing Water and hyaluronic acid, two ingredients that are bound to plump, tone, and hydrate your skin. Perfect for all skin types, this product promises to protect your skin from pollutants while keeping it looking glowy and fresh.
The serum is also gentle enough to use on reactive skin, rosacea, or skin that has undergone aesthetic procedures — meaning if you’re particularly sensitive, this is the perfect product to help “calm down” your complexion. And why is it called Mineral 89? Because it’s formulated with 89 percent of Vichy Volcanic water, providing you with the ultimate level of hydration.
For best use, apply two pumps in the morning and two at night after gently cleansing the skin.

With its lightweight texture, this is a full-proof skincare must-have for the summer season.
For best results use it both in the morning and at night before bed, applying the serum in upward motions to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. LiftActiv H.A. Epidermic Filler can also be used as an undereye serum and should be tapped gently into this delicate area.

A vitamin C serum is a staple to have all year around, but especially during the summer months because it helps fight off the sun damage that many of us tend to be prone to during those pool-side days. Well, this Vichy product promises to brighten and protect your skin with active ingredients such as 15 percent pure Vitamin C, Vitamin E, hyaluronic acid and maritime pine polyphenols.
When applied regularly, your skin is bound to look glowy with minimized appearance of blemishes.
