Hydrated the skin 

I don’t know about you, but this extremely long, never-ending winter has done a number on my skin. I already suffer from dry, dehydrated skin, but this season it seems to be worse. I wish I knew about Vichy Ideal Body Serum-Milk a few months ago, because in the few short weeks that I’ve been using it, my skin has improved significantly. The Vichy Ideal Body Serum-Milk features a unique blend of 10 fundamental oils, apricot kernel, passionflower, corn, rice bran, sunflower, blackcurrant pips, rosehip, coriander, macadamia and jojoba oils, to help smooth and calm the skin. It also contains LHA that helps exfoliate and stimulate new skin cell production, while hyaluronic acid helps to promote hydration and prevent water loss. It’s also enriched with mother-of-pearl particles to enhance the skin.

Vichy Ideal Body Serum-Milk comes in a gorgeous baby pink squeeze tube, with a slightly pinkish, hybrid texture. I would say it’s a cross between a creamy milky formula and an almost serum like texture. It’s lightweight, fairly liquidity in consistency and has an extremely velvety, emulsified gel-like formula. It applies seamlessly and absorbs instantly without feeling greasy, oily or leaving any sticky residue. It has the captivating scent of musk, vanilla and amber with a hint of floral that lingers on the skin for a few hours. Very relaxing, yet refreshing at the same time.

Vichy Ideal Body Serum-Milk is such a unique moisturizer. It has the hydration and comfort of a body milk, but with the fresh, silky smooth texture of a serum. It really does melt into the skin, quicker than any body lotion I’ve tried in the past. I was able to get dressed immediately afterwards, in fact, one arm was already dry before I even finished the other side. It’s actually helping with my skin’s elasticity, which gives the appearance of firmer, smoother skin. It keeps my skin hydrated throughout the day, with a radiant, even complexion. It also doesn’t hurt that it gives the skin a fresh, sweet and floral scent. If you’re looking for a new body lotion that helps firm, smooth, hydrate and nourish, I’d take a closer look at this. It retails for $22.50 for 200ml.
