In order to respect your skin’s needs, and best minimize allergic reactions, make sure your next skincare product meets certain quality criteria and guarantees. Here are our top 3.
1. Hypoallergenic formula
As stated on Vichy care and cosmetic products, the term “hypoallergenic” means that the product has been designed to minimize the risk of allergies. In order to establish hypoallergenic quality, tolerance tests are performed on many subjects over several weeks via the application of patches. The ultimate aim is to cause no sensitized reaction whatsoever.
2. Usage tests under dermatological control
All Vichy care products are tested under the watchful and expert eye of a dermatologist, on a representative sample of men and / or women, possessing both targeted and untargeted skin types. Conducted over several days and in real life conditions, these tests serve to define the efficiency criteria of the product, such as hydration, protection, anti-aging, and skin tolerance. At the slightest doubt, the formula is revised and corrected.
3. Traceability of ingredients
How can you tell if a product is good for the skin? What is the manufacturing process? The source of the caring properties or the choice of raw ingredients? For many years, Vichy has always adhered to strict product specifications and traced all its ingredients, for example with its renowned Mineralizing Water. Vichy operates in complete transparency in regard to the product’s journey, from millennia-old rocks deep in the Auvergne volcanoes to the production site. The first bacteriological checks are carried out immediately on the water’s extraction from the source. Then, the water is analyzed again in the laboratory to measure the concentration of minerals. The goal: to guarantee the highest quality and meet the needs of all skin types.
Made by skin, the secret to its firmness, yet in decline starting in our 20s, how to get lost collagen back is one of dermatology’s most progressive areas: dynamic ingredients now preserve and restore the protein for its anti-wrinkle, anti-aging benefits longer.
For taking good care of your skin, you trust in natural active ingredients. Focus on 3 natural ingredients in the Vichy care range, and their benefits.
Yes, you can eat your way to boost this vital skin protein. Collagen, the essential skin protein. The invisible support structure keeping skin firm, plump and young from the inside-out and the outside-in. The protein whose decline is regulated like a timer. Every year, from our late twenties, skin will lose it at a rate of 1%* (1) since its production slows down. But this happens even faster if we over-eat foods that accelerate this natural 1% decline. To find out how much the foods that pass our lips impact the collagen in our skin, read on.
Marine collagen powder, collagen dermal filler, collagen beauty shot…in 2018, there are more options than ever of how to replenish the 1% collagen skin loses every year as it ages. There’s a sea of collagen waters, powders, pills and clinical injectables from different sources – from marine to bovine - to navigate.
Let’s break down the different options for the most vital skin protein of all.
