Vichy Normaderm Micellar Solution

I tried a sample of a similar product from Bioderma a few months ago and loved it. It's a pain to track down in the UK, though, so I picked up this from Vichy. I've used almost half of the bottle now so I think it's about time I reviewed it.


Product: Vichy Normaderm Micellar Water

Price: £10.50 for 200ml from Boots


Description:

"Cleanses and purifies without rinsing, Vichy Normaderm Micellar Solution is 

also suitable for use on acne prone skin."


What's Good About It?

It's very quick and easy to use. I just use a cotton pad. It's not drying and it doesn't sting so I think this should work on most skin types. I don't like using water when cleansing as it tends to leave my skin feeling quite tight so this type of product is great for me. I like that it is much easier to find here in the UK.


What's Disappointing?

I find I have to use quite a lot of this to remove my make up so I don't think it's as cost effective as Bioderma. That's the only problem I've had with it so far.


Overall Score & Comment: 7/10 - it's a nice product but I think I'll be picking up the Bioderma version when I run out of this. If you're in the UK, this is a good way of trying a micellar solution without committing to a huge bottle of Bioderma (and tracking it down!)


Have you tried this product? Did you like it?

  3. Thanks girls! I've seen it on a few sites but the shipping cost was always astronomical which is probably what put me off!xx
