Hello everyone!
Today I’m reviewing the Vichy Normaderm
Deep Cleansing Purifying Gel, meant for oily skin. This product is slowly
becoming my HG! Read on to know why!
About Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing
Purifying Gel:
·
Skin type- oily, acne prone
skin
·
Action- removes dead cells and
unclogs pores
·
Result- opens pores, cleanses
and purifies skin from deep within
Price: Rs. 440 for 100mL
Packaging: The face wash comes in a handy
squeezy tube of a bright green color, with a translucent white flip-top cap. [This
specific type is the 100mL packaging. The 200mL pack (costs Rs. 990) comes with
a pump dispenser.] The packaging is nice, and the translucent body of the tube
allows one to see how much of the product is left inside. It is travel friendly
too.

acid, glycadone and dermostim. For the remaining ingredients, see the below
pic.
Shelf life: 12 months after opening.
My take on Vichy Normaderm Deep Cleansing
Purifying Gel: The product has the consistency of a gel, slightly runny, it has a light green
tinge to it, and it foams moderately, not too much. The fragrance is mild, and
a bit like astringent, but that doesn’t bother me. The gel is easy to use, and
it does not leave the skin feeling dry and stretchy. Since I have oily skin, I prefer
gel-based or liquid cleansers, as opposed to mousse-like cleansers which tend
to leave the skin feeling stretchy. So this particular product passes on that
front too. You need a very small amount of product each time, so with
twice-daily usage, one tube will last you around 3 months.
Efficacy wise, the skin feels refreshed and
squeaky clean, and not dry! Also, the cleanser controls oil secretion decently,
though I wouldn’t say that it completely mattifies my face. The number of
break-outs is definitely low ever since I started using this product, so I’m
happy with the gel wash, since it does what it claims.
