Mom Reviews: Vichy LiftActiv CxP Lifting Day and Night Moisturizer

May 13, 2010 Paris B 5 Comments

When Mom last reviewed the Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting cream, it was already on its last legs and she was using it so sparingly. So although I’d started on the range, I handed over the Vichy LiftActiv CxP Lifting day and night cream to her so she didn’t have to skimp on her moisturizer.

Vichy LiftActiv CxP Day and Night Cream

The Vichy LiftActiv CxP range is targeted at those 40 years and above so I figured Mom would be a good test case. The thing is, Mom’s always taken good care of her skin from way back and so saggy skin isn’t quite a primary concern for her. Besides, the Olay cream had helped her so I was more interested to see if the Vichy cream could maintain it. This review is based on my interview with her.

Review of the Vichy LiftActiv CxP Lifting Day and Night Creams

“After about 2 months on the Vichy LiftActiv CxP Lifting Day and Night creams, I’m quite happy with it. The creams leave my skin feeling supple and I don’t have any saggy skin. It delivers sufficient moisture to my skin and I like how the creams feel – soft and velvety.”

“I like that there is minimal fragrance but I cannot see drastic changes to my skin for the lifting and anti-wrinkle effect.”

PB Notes: Mom isn’t looking any more like a prune (will she appreciate me saying this? 😛 ) and in fact her skin is looking great. But Mom takes supplements and has a variety of other magical potions so I cannot say its fully attributed to just these creams.

Will you repurchase these creams?

“Yes if there are deals on them. They aren’t as expensive as higher end brands and anti wrinkle creams are usually more expensive anyway. But having to use 2 separate creams for night and day can make it a bit expensive for some people.”

Currently the Vichy LiftActiv CxP Lifting Day and Night creams retail at RM149/50ml each.

Pros: Feels comfortable on the skin, Night cream is moisturizing and keeps skin feeling supple

Cons: Comes in day and night formula which can be a little pricey when added up

PB says

Like me, Mom likes to experiment so she did say that she might alternate her purchases of the Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting cream with this Vichy one because for some reason, she finds that it is better for her skin this way so her skin does not get “bored”. She does prefer the Vichy LiftActiv CxP Night Cream so she might just repurchase that one in future.

Either way, they are affordable for me to replace for her… unlike the Lancome Genifique serum that she keeps dropping hints about 😛 I see a package looming so maybe its time for me to do something about it LOL…

They just launched the new NCEF Night Mask, an ultra-regenerating sleeping mask that promises to rejuvenate tired skin in just 7 nights! Well That sounds right up my alley! 😮‍💨
I highly recommend the Meso Mask as well for a rejuvenating, hydrating and smoothing boost to the skin. Its a good brand, that I’ve tried in the past and I’m glad we now have it here! 😊

Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Malone installation at Mid Valley Megamall 😍 Jo Malone has always made gifting an experience, both for giver and receiver, and this is what their Jobots are here for - to help you find that perfect gift whether for a friend, family, or for yourself each time you manage to dodge the C-bullet 😆
Go check out the Jobots at Mid Valley Megamall Centre Court & experience their signature hand and arm massages, gift boxing, personalised engraving of your perfume bottles & candle jars & play with the vending machine. You could get lucky! 
No prizes for guessing which Jobot installation was my favourite! The one with the dog of course! They also had a key chain with a dog. So. Bloody. Cute!! 
And after so many years finally got a photo with event organizer extraordinaire @cyrus.chin because we didn’t get the white & beige memo and came instead in (unplanned) matching sunny coral instead 😂 
It felt good to have makeup on, dress up and go out for a tiny little bit, and meet people I haven’t seen in literally years! Also to enjoy the scents (hard to smell with a mask on though) and the visual delights. Go check it out. They’re there at the Centre Court until Sunday 3 July.

Not everyday I wear something decent (I still live in crummy t-shirt, shorts & sweaty athleisure most days) so it merited a photo! 😆 
I put on a full face of makeup today and when it came to my eyeshadow, I had a brain fart moment and forgot where they were! 😂 Looked through 3 drawers before I saw them and even then I thought “Did I ever have THIS MANY?!” I guess I do. And before you ask, yes they’re all expired 🫢
