Vichy foundation
Perfect skin is what every woman strives for. Far from everyone, nature has presented such a gift from birth, however, even for those who are lucky, it is very difficult to preserve beauty and freshness in the conditions of the frantic pace of modern life. Polluted air, stress and lack of sleep, unhealthy diet and a hectic work schedule are just some of the factors that have a negative impact on the condition of the skin, increasing their fatigue and accelerating aging. As a result - a dull complexion, dark circles under the eyes, early wrinkles.
To correct the situation, women resort to the help of tonal remedies, which is not always correct, because many of them are only able to temporarily hide the problem without solving it, and sometimes even aggravating it: covering the face like a mask, they do not allow the skin to breathe freely .
However, there is a way out - tonal means of the French laboratory Vichy will help you become the owner of not only smooth and radiant, but also healthy skin.
Peculiarities

Raised to the surface from a depth of 4000 meters and heated before that to a temperature of 140 degrees, the water contains 15 minerals and it is in this pristine and pure form that it is used for the preparation of cosmetic products.This water is a real elixir of life for your skin: it soothes irritation, moisturizes and fills it with strength, protects and restores.
Beautiful skin is healthy skin, so the company's products are cosmetics with a therapeutic effect, which are manufactured by pharmacists and sold only through pharmacies.

Reviews
The vast majority of customer reviews are positive.. Women love the light texture of the products and how easily and evenly they lie on the skin without clogging pores and remaining completely imperceptible.Almost all of these respondents note a significant improvement in the condition and appearance of the skin and confirm the duration of action declared by the manufacturer. Customers also like the fact that the packaging of the product lasts for a long time - the funds are very economical, which is important, given the rather high prices for products.
Of course, there was a fly in the ointment, which is natural, because it rarely happens that absolutely everyone is satisfied, given the huge audience of Vichy consumers. You can meet complaints about a shorter than stated duration of action. True, some themselves note that the reason for this may be overdried office air. There were also users who claimed that the tool rolls down. Considering that such opinions are isolated against the background of the vast majority, it can be assumed that in such cases the remedy was chosen incorrectly.
Surely there are those whose expectations were too high. Let's be realistic - after all, Vichy cosmetics are not a wonderful cream that Margarita received from Azazello: despite the unique composition and technology, the result will become noticeable only after a certain time, subject to daily use.
Do not forget that healthy sleep and nutrition, the correct daily routine are important conditions for success.
Add these ingredients, and then the wonderful cosmetics from Vichy will turn your dream of beautiful and healthy skin into reality!
