Pros:

skin feels good, my acne has reduced whether due to normaderm alone I am not sure but whatever works

Cons:

Price - a wee bit on the expensive side

Good product, love the texture and seems to work for me. A little difficult to find as Vichy is only available in few pharmacies but I found their india website [link removed] which is a good help

I've been using Normaderm for a few years now, and it's hard to say how it's been working, since my skin tends to fluctuate a lot, sometimes based on outside factors. But this is what I've found: Good products: The night cream, and the targetted spot treatment Unremarkable products: the spf makeup, the gel cleanser, the toner, the concealer pencil - all of these products did not make a noticeable impact on the state of my skin. Sidenote: the blue mattifying non-Normaderm moisturizer is very nice & definitely helps with oily skin.

Pros:

It took a few weeks for my skin to get used to this product but Im very happy with atm. I still have spots but my skin as cleared and improved in appearance. It feels great after putting it on and dosent harm your skin.

Cons:

Its takes a while ror your skin to get used to it and it is expensive in thye current economic climate.

This is overall and very good product. To anyone out who uses Clean&Clear or Clearsile it is harming your skin!

Pros:

removed blackheads, and a steady decline in acnee.

Cons:

can be drying, and vit takes time

used normderm scrub, then normaderm wash then switched to 'pH 5.5' to "help your skins own antibacterial properties." because normaderm strips away oils too strongly for my long term use. But my skin is amazing now.

Pros:

smells nice
feels clean

Cons:

can sometimes cause irritation (especially around my nose area)
dryness

i've been using vichy normaderm for about 3 weeks now, and i couldnt see any differences the first week or so, but i continued to use it nonetheless, and eventually, my skin started clearing up bit by bit, although i still break out before my period. i've also been using tea tree oil with it too, feels great on your skin!

Pros:

Evens out skin blotchiness over time. Exfoliates (with exfoliating cleanser). Keeps me relatively pimple free. Smells great. Lower amount of salicylic acid (0.5% rather than 2%) is gentler and as effective. Claims to be based with mineral water.

Cons:

Expensive. Can be drying at first. Can cause a reaction in some (my boyfriends skin turns bright red after using this).

I've been using Vichy Exfoliating Daily Cleanser for about two years. I have now using it along with prescription Differin gel for about 6 months and my skin has never looked clearer. I tried everything before, and this combination works better than any benzoyl peroxide system that I've used before. My skin does occasionally get dry and flakey, but this is probably from the Differin, as I used the Vichy before without the dryness. I moisturize with Neutrogena Visibly Even Daily Moisterizer, and like I said, for the first time in my adult life (I'm 27) I finally have clear skin.

Pros:

+Your skin does feel clean
+Nice scent

Cons:

-I only had mild breakouts for months, then I switched to Vichy and my skin is out of control so I'm trying a new product in a few days.
-These new pimples are so hard to get rid of. Even squeezing them doesn't help because they crust over.

Everyone says to keep using Vichy for few weeks. Well, it's been a month since I bought it. I've used it religiously - twice a day, no more and no less. I've used the same foundation for the last two years so it's not possible that it's what's giving me these new breakouts. DO NOT BUY VICHY. My face looks disgusting now. At least before I could cover my breakouts without them crusting over or looking nasty.

Pros:

It smells nice, and that's all for now...

Cons:

The first time i used it, i didn't use it religiously, i got the normaderm wash, scrub, and day/night creme but i found my make up did not go on well after using the creme, so i substituted my marcelle moisture creme. and my skin started to breakOUT

Its suppose to be a good product, so i guess I will use it, religiously. And see if the GREAT effects come in soon..oh and I apply the norma derm stick before bed..to dry up any pimples and/or wide open pores.

Pros:

<using the night cream, and the gel face wash, and for occasional dryness the moisturizing day cream>
really made my pores smaller and general skin texture much nicer
my skin is less oily

Cons:

it's a bit pricey

I have really oily skin and I get a mixture of blackheads, smaller pimples and cystic acne. Before I started using this my skin was extremely oily and there were small pimples all over. I still get breakouts with cystic acne (especially around my period) but I definitely see a noticeable difference in the overall appearance of my skin. The texture has evened out and there's less blochiness and irritation. And the pores are much smaller. I'm hoping with continued use it'll calm down even more. I got the moisturizer for a deal with the cleanser - I don't normally use moisturizer bc my skin's so oily. This one made my skin oilier too, but not as bad as others - I use it in tiny amounts on little dry spots. I will probably use it more in the winter as the weather gets dry and harsh.

Pros:

It helped me against blackheads, i really had big and visible ones now they are much smaller, also skin feels a bit more clear then before,

Cons:

It made my skin break out alot, got really bad acne problems after using Vichy anti-imperfections,

It works good for blackheads and makes skin look more clear, But using it after 1 week i had to stop becose it made my skin break out to much, i have now really painfull acne all over my face, also i got miliums out of it, the small white dots. And each time i put it on my face i feelt like my cheeks were burning. Not really worth the pain sure result of some came out good while it just made other even worse. I have no idea how to get ridd of my acne now.
