Vichy ideal soleil spf 50 review năm 2024

I will be honest with you, I have not reviewed many VICHY products, mainly because they don’t have a sizeable presence in the sunscreen market vs. other French pharmacy brands. Also, VICHY is less likely to be stocked by local pharmacies vs. Bioderma or Avene.

But BEFORE that a reminder…

What damages are we trying to protect against when we use sunscreens?

Sunscreens contain UV filters. I like the EU definition which is, ‘UV-filters’ means substances which are exclusively or mainly intended to protect the skin against certain UV radiation by absorbing, reflecting or scattering UV radiation

Happy Skin Days’ sunscreen test

I apply this very basic test to all sunscreens that I test on this blog

Vichy ideal soleil spf 50 review năm 2024

1) Are harmful chemicals present?

The harmful chemicals that I look for are specifically BHT, Oxybenzone, Formaldehyde releasing preservatives and parabens. This sunscreen has none of these.

2) This product is at least a SPF 30

3) What are the UVA and UVB filters present in this product?

I am happy with the UVA and UVB filters present in this product. You can take my word for it or you can simply refer to this image:

The product has a fragrance: a subtle powdery, chalky smell. It’s not unpleasant and completely wearable throughout the day.

This sunscreen blends in with ease AND, importantly, leaves NO white cast. It is like a second skin.

Also, the sunscreen claims to be an “anti-brillaince mattifying” product, and, without a doubt, there is no shine, and the finish is matte.

My only issues with this product are its more drying than Bioderma (or my regular sunscreen, Ultrasun), and it causes my eyes to sting during testing. I didn’t put the sunscreen under my eyelids (which is what I usually do).

Would I use this product again?

Honestly, this is a good sunscreen that offers good protection. It nails the matte finish look with no white cast, and this is an excellent reason to buy this sunscreen.

My personal preference is to use products that don’t sting my eyes or cause them to water. Skincare is extremely personal, and your eyes may be 100% fine with this product.

Based on the “eye” problem, I would not purchase this.

Where can I buy this?

I bought this outside India for about US$ 33. But even where I live the price ranges from US$ 25 – US$ 33. The same product in Europe appears to be US$ 20.

Where reviews refer to foods or cosmetic products, results may vary from person to person. Customer reviews are independent and do not represent the views of The Hut Group.

Good outdoors sunscreen for oily acne prone skin

Too heavy for daily use but great for the beach and pool. It dries matte, it's very waterproof and it's doesn't sting on my sensitive oily skin. It's one of the few waterproof sunscreens that doesn't break me out. Fine for fair skin but it will definitely leave a white cast on darker skin tones. It also pills slightly when reapplied.

Good non greasy face spf 50

This is a good spf - I have oily skin & this didn’t make me shiny or greasy. Easy to apply although I felt like it left my face slightly white. However it didn’t irritate my eyes or break out my skin.
