I give my skin a daily boost of strength with my Vichy Minéral 89 Serum, a non-greasy gel formula serum combining all the power of high-dose Vichy Mineralizing Thermal Water with natural origin hyaluronic acid to strengthen skin’s barrier function. Drop after drop and day after day, a daily dose of strength to boost skin’s health and resistance. With no oils or silicones to irritate sensitive or acne prone skin, Mineral 89 is perfect for all skin types. As a matter of fact, it is perfect for oily skin and can even help improve acne prone skin. A number of my readers have told me that since they’ve started using Vichy Mineral 89 Serum that their acne has vastly improved. Yay!

Vichy Mineral 89 Serum has only eleven ingredients and is a pure and powerful formula concentrated with 89% Vichy Mineralizing Thermal Water, born in the French volcanoes, and associated with natural hyaluronic acid. Honestly, try spritzing your face with Vichy Mineral Water and then apply Mineral 89. It’s like standing in a waterfall and you have never been so dewy! Mineral 89’s formula help to reinforce our skin barrier function while it hydrates skin and protects it against the world, weather changes, stress, fatigue and pollution. With its fast-acting, quickly absorbed formula, Mineral 89 is perfect for teaming up with all of Vichy skincare routines, being the founding step of any daily hydrating routine. It soaks up beautifully, leaving behind a pill-free beautiful canvas of perfect skin.

I use it day and night. Sometimes alone at night, just to give my skin the light touch. I also use it at night under a moisturising mask. It works under any of my day creams as the perfect base. I also find application of all serums is best done to damp skin! I have many spray toners – rosewater and mineral water being favourites. I mist my whole face, and wait a minute or two, then apply the serum and massage gently all over face, neck and even décolletage if I have enough product on my hands. And ta-da! Glowing radiant skin.

At $39.95 CAD for a 50ml bottle, Vichy Mineral 89 is luxury skincare at what I consider a great price. Sold at Canadian pharmacies and online.
