A Sensitive Subject

Vichy Purete Thermal 3-in-1By Lisa Dutton…

Skincare is a sensitive subject. Skin type and personal preference play a huge role. What works for one person, may not be great for the next.

I personally have what you would call normal skin, however, it is also sensitive. Anything to harsh or fragranced bother my face. Recently I tried out Vichy’s Purete Thermale line. This is Vichy’s collection designed specifically for sensitive skin.

Overall I am impressed with all the products. The Purete Thermale 3-in-1 One-Step Cleanser acts as a cleansing milk, toner and eye make-up remover. The texture of this is milky – it doesn’t lather, but feels rich and massages into the face nicely. It removes makeup thoroughly, and I love the fact I can glide it straight over my eyes without them burning (suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers).

Purete Thermale offers another cleansing option in the form of a Calming Cleansing Solution (alcohol free, soap free, allergy tested). This product also offers good bang for your buck as it’s also a 3-in-1 (cleanses, removes make-up and soothes). The word here is gentle. Simply splash some on a cotton cosmetic pad and wipe it across your face! I usually use this product when I’m not wearing any make-up, but need a little re-fresh.

For some deep cleansing and exfoliating action Vichy Purete Thermale offers a lovely Softening Exfoliating Cream. It has a soft rich texture, and micro-beads to buff away dead skin cells. Massage into damp skin and rinse off with water. This is the first time I have exfoliated without my skin feeling dry and irritated after.

Finally, we all know Vichy is famous for their Thermal Spa Water… and I now officially can’t live without Eau Thermale. This gentle mist is rich in rare minerals, and feels like an ocean mist. It soothes and cares for your skin in the simplest of ways leaving it feeling refreshed and moisturized. I can’t wait to use this in summer!

All of these VICHY products are paraben free and pH balanced. Ingredients are listed on the back. Find VICHY Purete Thermale at your local Shoppers Drug Mart or London Drugs (cosmetics section).
