Review: Vichy Normaderm Total Mat

Hello !

If you've been reading my blog for a while, you might have noticed that I mention this product a lot, because I really love it and now after ages I'm finally sharing my experience with you. I've been using it for a long, long time. For a few years I've used Normaderm Anti-acne hydrating lotion which also works as a mattifier.

This product is a bit more new and it is called Total Matt.

Živjo !
Če že en čas berete moj blog, ste mogoče že opazile, da velikokrat omenim tale izdelek saj ga res obožujem. Po zelooo dolgem času sem se odločila, da končno z vami delim svojo izkušnjo. Uporabljam ga res že dolgo. Nekaj let sem najprej uporabljala Normaderm Vlažilno kremo za aknasto kožo saj je delovala tudi matirajoče.
Nato pa sem to kremo zamenjala s to, ki jo vidite na sliki: Total Mat.

Vichy says:

Combines Salicylic Acid with Perlite, a natural anti-shine ingredient known for it absorption power. Micro-powders absorb excess sebum on skin. Paraben-free. Efficacy Ultra-light hydrating gel combats shine and imperfections, and leaves skin feeling clean all day. Product efficacy tested under extreme conditions of stress, heat, humidity and physical activity.

Vichy pravi:

Prva nega za obraz z perlitom, naravno učinkovino vulkanskega izvora, ki je bila izbrana med več kot 80 absorptivnimi učinkovinami zaradi svoje izjemne vpojnosti (5-krat večja kot lojevec). V kombinaciji z mikrodelci z učinkom pivnika spodbuja vpijanje in izhlapevanje vode in sebuma.

Koža je popolnoma matirana: nega Normaderm Total Mat zagotavlja občutek čiste kože cel dan.

Je edina nega, ki vpije vse vzroke mastnega leska na koži tudi v ekstremnih okoliščinah, kot so vročina, vlaga, stres in veliki fizični napori.

My opinion:

The texture is really light. The product is a white, see-through color. It feels really light on your skin when you apply it. You don't need a lot. It sinks into your skin quickly and leaves your skin matte and feeling really fresh. It doesn't feel like you even put anything on it. The smell is again fresh, however nothing special and not over-powering. My face stays matte for about 4 hours which isn't that much, however it is still good for me (I'd be oily in about an hour). It doesn't effect how your foundation glides on. I use it also as a face primer.

The price isn't the best (around 16-17 € for 30 ml), however I've been loyal to this product and I wouldn't exchange it for anything. I do really think it is one of the best mattifying products out there and especially because you can usually buy it only in pharmacies it has that high-end value.

I've tried many, many mattifying creams (Decleor, Green Line, Afrodita, Nivea, Eucerin...) and none worked like this one, I swear.

Moje mnenje:

Tekstura je zelo lahka. Sam izdelek je prosojno bele barve in se na koži občuti zelo lahko. Ne potrebujete velike količine. Sama nanesem tale gel zjutraj in se hitro vpije v kožo ter jo matira in osveži. Na obrazu se ne občuti kot da ste kaj nanesli nanjo. Vonj je svež, vendar ni kaj preveč poseben, prav tako pa ni močen. Moj obraz ostane matiran nekje 4 ure - kar morda ni veliko, vendar je za mojo kožo na obrazu veliko, saj postane le ta mastna že po kakšni uri. Izdelek prav tako ne vpliva na to kako se tekoči puder in ostali izdelki obnesejo na koži (edino podaljša obstojnost). Sama ga uporabljam tudi kot podlago za ličila.

Cena morda ni najboljša (med 16-17 € za 30 ml), pa vendar sem temu izdelku ostala zvesta in ga ne bi zamenjala za nobenega. Sama sem mnenja, da je eden izmed najboljših matirajočih izdelkov na trgu in ker ga običajno kupimo v lekarni, ima nekako večjo vrednost.

Love and Lemons, Simona
