Vichy Idealia Life Serum

U poslednje vreme dosta viđam postove o novom Vichy Idealia Life Serum-u, što je i logično pošto je prošlo dovoljno vremena od njegovog lansiranja da bi se neki konkretni utisci mogli formirati. Tako je i kod mene došao na red post o ovom lepom ružičastom serumu. Svoj primerak dobila sam na promociji ovog seruma, o kojoj ste mogli da pročitati više u ovom postu.

Lately I see a lot of posts about the new Vichy Idealia Life Serum, which is logical because enough time has passed since its launch for opinions to form. And so it's time for me to write a post about this pretty pink serum, too. I got mine at the promotion of this serum and you can read more about it in this post.

Na prvi pogled mogu da kažem da sam oduševljena izgledom pakovanja. Kutija u kojoj serum dolazi je svetlo srebrno roza i presijava se u svim bojama kao CD. :) Naravno to je manje bitno od same bočice, koja je još lepša. Staklena roza sa veoma dobrom pumpicom. Naravno očigledna mana ovog pakovanja je to što nije providno i što ne možete da vidite da li je vaše pakovanje pri kraju i da li je potrebno da otčite da kupite novo. Mislim da je samo dno providno, tako mi se čini, pa će to biti od koristi kada bočica bude pri kraju. 

Pakovanje sadrži 30ml, od otvaranja može da se koristi 12 meseci, a meni su lično 2 pumpice dovoljne za lice i malo po vratu, tako da se ne troši jako brzo.

At first glance, I could see that I loved the appearance of the packaging. The box in which the serum comes is light pink and silver and shimmers in all colours, like a CD. :) Of course this is less important than the bottle itself, which is even more beautiful. Pink glass with a very good pump. Of course, the obvious downside of this packaging is that it isn't transparent and you cannot see if your serum is almost empty, and you need to go and buy a new one. I think that the bottom is transparent, so it will be of use when bottle is almost empty. The packaging contains 30ml and can be used for 12 months after opening. I personally need 2 pumps for my whole face and a bit for my the neck, so it will last for a long time.

Serum je namenjen svim tipovima kože, ali zbog aktivnih sastojaka nije namenjen okoloočnoj regiji. Namenjen je koži koja je pod stresom i koja je umorna, koži koja je pod uticajem sunca, zagađenog vazduha i smoga, osobama koje su pušači ili se loše hrane. Sve ove stvari su veoma štetne za kožu i čine da ona ubrzano stari, a na žalost svi ispunjavamo barem nekoliko ovih stavki. Kada sve ovako pogleda na sve, bilo je logično da sam se obradovala što ću moći da koristim ovaj serum. Serum ne sadrži parabene.

Serum is for all skin types, but not for the eye region because of its active ingredients. It is designed for skin that is stressed and tired, skin that is exposed to the sun, to air pollution and smog, for people who are smokers or don't eat well. All these things are very harmful to our skin and make it age more rapidly, and unfortunately we all meet at least some of these conditions. When I looked at everything like that, it was logical that I was really happy that I will be able to use this serum. Serum doesn't contain parabens.

A sad i moji utisci. Iskreno ne znam šta sam zapravo očekivala od ovog seruma. On treba da štiti kožu od štetnih uticaja, ali to nije nešto što ja svakako mogu da opazim, mogu samo da verujem da štiti. Serum takođe obećava i ujednačen i blistav ten, glatku površinu kože i sužene pore i odmorne crte lica. Mislim da ovaj serum zaista ispunjava ono što tvrdi, bar u neku ruku.

Serum u sebi sadrži blistave, ali veoma blage i nežne, svetlucave srebrne čestice, koje zapravo čine da vaš ten izgleda blistavo i ujednačeno. Ovaj efekat je veoma blag i izgleda zaista prirodno. Mnogo mi se sviđa to što se serum ekspresno upija, nije ni malčice masan, pa moja koža koja je inače masna i meštovita nema ni trunku masnog sjaja već samo izgleda prirodno blistavo. Pritom mi i koža malo sporije prosija kada koristim ovaj serum.

Površina kože jeste zaglađena i zbog toga je ovaj serum i jako dobra podloga za šminku. Pore su manje u smislu da su manje vidljive posebno ako stavljam i puder preko, zato što je koža zaglađena. Nisam primetila nikakvo pravo sužavanje pora.

Odmorne crte lica koje serum obećava su nekako i logične da se dese pošto svetlucave čestice čine da koža izgleda baršunasto i budno.

Serum ima veoma blag i prijatan miris. A sada pogledajte i kako izgleda serum. Sunce je učinilo da svetlucave čestice baš zasijaju, naravno kada ga namažete na kožu i serum se upije, nećete biti svetlucavi kao ukrasni papir za poklone.

And now my impressions. I honestly do not know what I really expected from this serum. It should protect the skin from harmful influences, but that's not something I can see in any way, I can only believe that it protects. The serum also promises a balanced and radiant complexion, smooth skin, narrow pores and awake appearance. I think that this serum really fulfills what it claims, at least to some extent.

Serum contains brilliant but very mild and gentle, shimmering silver particles that actually make your complexion look radiant and even . This effect is very subtle and looks really natural. I like the fact that the serum is absorbed extremely fast, it isn't even a bit greasy, and my skin , which is usually oily and mixed doesn't have a trace of oily shine, but just a naturally radiant look. My skin even started shining a bit slower than without the serum.

The skin surface is smooth, and therefore this serum is a very good base for makeup. The pores are smaller in the sense that they are less visible, especially if you put foundation over it, because the skin is smooth. I haven't noticed any real reduction of pores.

This serum also promises rested appearance and this is somehow logical,  since glowing particles make skin look velvety and awake.

The serum has a very mild and pleasant fragrance. Now look at what this serum looks like. The sun was shining a lot when I took these photos, so the shiny particles are very visible. But, of course, when you apply it on the skin and it absorbs the serum, you won't look like a shiny wrapping paper for gifts.

Serum sam koristila samo ujutru i mislim da zaista lepo hidrira. Mislim da je slab da se koristi sam ako imate suvu kožu, ali to je samo moj osećaj, pošto sam ja veoma daleko od suve kože. Ako ste masnokožac kao i ja biće vam dovoljan preko dana, a takođe vas neće ni malo umastiti i čak će da pomogne da se malo sporije zasijate.

Ako uzmemo da verujem serumu da me štiti od štetnih uticaja okoline i lep i prijatan osećaj na koži kada ga koristim, kao i blistav ten, ja sam ovim serumom zaista zadovoljna. Jedan mi je od ubedljivo omiljenih stvari za dnevnu negu. Da ne košta 4238.64 dinara zaista bih ga obožavala. Ovako mislim da nije baš pristupačan za svakoga, ali ako vam nije žao da date tolike pare, svakako ga probajte.

I used it only in the morning and I think it really nicely hydrates. I think it is weak to be used alone if you have dry skin, but that's just my opinion, since I am very far from dry skin. If you have oily skin like me, it will be sufficient during the day and it won't make you oily and it will even help you shine through a little later.

If I believe that serum protects me from the harmful effects of the environment and a nice and pleasant feeling on the skin when I use it, and radiant complexion, I am really happy with this serum. It by far one of my favorite things to use as a part of my daily routine. If it didn't cost 4238.64 RSD I would really adore it. I think it isn't very affordable for everyone, but if don't mind giving so much money, make sure to try it.
