Our best moisturiser for oily skin

Hydration is essential for every skincare routine, even oily skin. Don't let the shine fool you; oily skin can get dehydrated too. To strike the right balance between shine-free and hydrated skin, opt for oil-free and non-comedogenic formulas that won't clog your pores.


One exceptional choice is the Vichy Normaderm range, designed with oily, blemish-prone skin in mind. Its products focus on providing hydration while removing excess oil and unclogging pores. The lightweight Normaderm Anti-Age Resurfacing Care Day Cream, enriched with glycolic and lipo-hydroxy acids (LHA), gently exfoliates the skin’s outer layer, unclogs and tightens pores while still providing 24-hour hydration.


Our best moisturiser for dry skin

Dry and dehydrated skin requires proper moisturisation, especially during the colder months when skin loses water more quickly. As you age, your skin may become thinner and drier, making hydration crucial.

Regularly moisturising with a thicker formula and one that’s rich in hydrating hyaluronic acid can help to lock in moisture and restore comfort.


If you have dry skin, we recommend Vichy Minéral 89 100H Moisture Boosting Cream, a cream format of our cult-favourite Minéral 89 Serum! Experience up to 100 hours long lasting hydration1 and a replenished skin moisture barrier. Formulated with Hyaluronic Acid, Volcanic water minerals, Vitamins E & B3 as well as Squalane, this rich cream texture melts into your skin for instantly hydrated and plump looking skin. Tested on sensitive skin and under dermatological control. Hypoallergenic & Fragrance-Free cream.


Our best moisturiser for mature skin


As you age, your skin's ability to retain water and produce collagen decreases, leading to dryness and dullness. Our Liftactiv Specialist Collagen Day Cream is specifically formulated to boost the skin's collagen production and target signs of collagen loss such as fine lines, wrinkles and loss of elasticity. It’s enriched with Vitamin CG and Collagen protecting biopeptides to help skin appear firmer, plumper and more radiant. This hydrating formula is soft and velvety, instantly smoothing your skin.



Alternatively, for an intensive Hyaluronic Acid boost include Vichy Liftactiv Supreme H.A. Epidermic Filler in your routine. This serum is formulated with Vitamin CG and B5 to plump skin with moisture and helps to smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with a filling effect. H.A. Epidermic Filler is dermatologically tested and suitable for sensitive skin.


Our best moisturiser for normal, balanced skin


Our best moisturiser for normal, balanced skin is Minéral 89 72H Moisture Boosting Cream. Formulated with hyaluronic acid, vitamins B3 and E, and squalane, this moisturising cream is clinically proven to hydrate and strengthen the skin barrier2. Instantly melting into skin, this lightweight cream delivers an immediate hydration boost and up to 72hr moisture lock-in3. Skin is left looking plump and feeling soothed for a glowing, healthy-looking complexion. Recommended by dermatologists4 and approved by the British Skin Foundation. 100% like the texture and 98% agree skin feels healthier5.


Achieving healthy looking, hydrated skin is within reach, no matter your skin type or age. With Vichy's range of specialised moisturisers, you can ensure your skin looks and feels its best. Remember to choose the right product for your unique needs, and enjoy the radiant results. Whether you have oily, dry, mature, or balanced skin, the perfect hydrating hero is here to keep your skin glowing.
