A skin sensor read my skin's moisture level, then my photo was transferred to a computer model that determined my skin's age level by measuring lines, wrinkles and sagging. I was pleased when my skin’s apparent age came back as twelve-and-a-half years younger than my actual age. Then came a calming bath, massage and face treatment featuring Vichy products customized for my skin. The final treatment was the best part: two masseuses giving me a full-body rub down, with water from the Lucas spring (the only spring that Vichy Laboratoires uses) raining down on me from thermal jets. My day ended with a dip in the hot springwater pool. I left the place feeling better than I could ever remember.
Day 4
Today I visited the Vichy Laboratoires research centre, in Chevilly-LaRue, near Paris, where I was introduced to LiftActiv CxP, Vichy's latest anti-wrinkle firming face-care cream, based on two breakthrough technologies. Vichy scientists have combined vitamin C, which stimulates skin cells' vital function and can help reduce skin damage caused by free radicals, with peptide 2, an essential protein for all tissues, to help reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture. Vichy is also using the continuous release of active ingredients so they can be more effective. That gives skin a tauter look, as if it's been lifted. Armed with my own LiftActiv CxP, I went home ultrahydrated, ultrapampered and ultra-excited about a better-looking me!
Editor's note: Injectables and surgery aren't the answer for everyone who wants younger-looking skin. A good day and night moisturizer can be just the ticket. I've been using LiftActiv CxP for two months now; my skin looks tauter, my wrinkles look smoothed out, and I’m getting lots of compliments!
