Deep Moisturizing Cream-Gel for Normal & Combination Skin Vichy Aqualia Thermal Rehydrating Water Gel

I really love this gel cream, and it's not the first time I've bought it. It's lightweight and perfect for my normal, slightly oily skin. It doesn't leave any stickiness or "film" on my face. I highly recommend it.

I used to have beautiful skin, never had any breakouts. After using this cream, I developed pus-filled pimples, which left behind red marks that took several months to fade. Once I stopped using the cream, the breakouts disappeared.

If applied to damp skin, it leaves no film. This is something that can be managed. But the smell! Because of this, I definitely won't repurchase. That's why I'm not using it daily right now. If you're hesitant about getting it or not, I would choose a different product.

A very good cream for combination skin.

The gel-cream is disappointing. The composition is awful, and it clogs pores. It provides minimal moisturization, even in the summer (my skin is combination). I rate it one star, it's a waste. I regret falling for the reviews and throwing my money away.

Solid 4! I have normal/combination skin (38 years old). The texture is a bit heavy for summer, maybe because it's a GEL-cream. And the downside for me is the strong smell.
It moisturizes well. The price is good for this volume and brand.
Will I buy it again? I don't know, I think I'll still try the cream. The best and my favorite cream from Vichy is Idealia)))) But the price....((((
Overall, I love this brand, I have a lot of their products now and have tried them before.

I have been using a Korean serum for pigmentation and needed a moisturizing cream. I searched for a long time and decided to try this one. I bought a 30ml sample. I have combination skin and have been using it for over a week. At the moment, I am satisfied with my choice of cream. Its texture is gentle and gel-like, perfect for summer! It does not feel sticky on my skin. I will be able to understand more later on. I will update then. The tube and nozzle are convenient. I also personally liked the scent, it is subtle and fresh.

I bought it at the pharmacy. I liked it, it's lightweight and perfect for summer. I also have the night version from this series, which provides very good moisturization. It suits my combination-prone-to-breakouts skin.

The first inconvenience is the delivery. I placed the order for one address, but the courier was given a completely different address. It wasn't too far, but the courier had to wander around. As for the cream itself, there was no protective membrane on the tube, no opening protection on the lid, and no protective stickers on the box. How can we be sure that no one opened the cream? The manufacturing date is 09/2020, and it is valid until 08/2023. So, two years have already passed since the manufacturing date, and there is no guarantee that someone didn't open the cream 12 months ago. Now, regarding the cream itself, I liked it. It is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and leaves no noticeable stickiness. The scent is a bit strong, but I think I'll get used to it over time. I don't feel any film on my face, as many girls have written. After applying, my skin gets shiny after 1-2 hours, but it gets oily without any cream, so it's not because of the cream. I'll see how my skin reacts to this cream over time and update my review.

I have purchased this cream before and I really like it. It moisturizes well and I highly recommend it for girls with dry skin.

I didn't buy it here, but this cream is amazing! It is a lightweight and gentle gel that instantly turns into water on the face. It is also very economical, as just 3 drops are enough for the entire face, and it absorbs quickly. It effectively moisturizes the skin and, most importantly, has a good composition. It also smells really nice, and it's currently my favorite among lightweight moisturizing creams! It is perfect for combination and oily skin, but for dry and very dry skin, it may not provide enough hydration, so something more serious may be needed.

I have dry, sensitive skin. I bought this cream for the winter, and it does provide hydration. However, after applying it, there is a sticky feeling. This stickiness remains even if I apply powder or foundation afterward. I do not recommend it.

Great cream. It's exactly what I need for my combination skin. It's perfect for the summer. I will definitely get more, but in a larger size.

I have normal skin. The cream didn't suit me. My skin always becomes greasy and shiny after using it. When I stop using it, my skin becomes clean and doesn't shine. But when I start using it again, my skin becomes oily and pimples appear.

Great cream, no oily shine, absorbs well. Noticed skin improvement from the first use.

The product contains alcohol, unfortunately I noticed it too late. It dehydrated my skin... but as soon as I switched to another cream, my skin blossomed! I do not recommend it.

I absolutely love the scent of Vichy creams. I have been using them for 2 years now, so the scent evokes feelings of protection and comfort. I have both the Aquilia Thermal day and night creams. They moisturize excellently, leaving my skin soft and delicate. I use these creams in combination with Korean cosmetics, and even though the face wash gel is not from the Vichy line, the creams are still quite effective for normal skin. I highly recommend them.

I did not buy this cream here, but I must say that it is wonderful. It moisturizes the skin very well and for a long time. It has a pleasant texture and does not clog pores, which is perfect for combination skin.

The scent is pleasant, but there is no effect whatsoever. I believe that Vichy is currently only focused on marketing.

I use this cream together with the Purete Thermale cleansing gel and Mineral 89 booster. The effect is simply fantastic. After just the first application of this trio, the results are immediate. I am very satisfied with this purchase!

I didn't notice any wow effect. I have been using creams in the same price range and their effects are much better. It's just a regular, lightweight cream.

This product is amazing! After three days of use, my skin looks so much better. It has a pleasant lightweight feeling, and I am very satisfied with my purchase.

This is a great lightweight cream that is perfect for combination skin. It absorbs quickly without leaving any stickiness. It has a pleasant scent. I bought the travel set which included a 15ml version, but I will definitely purchase the full-sized 30ml version.

Satisfied.

I really liked it. Superb.

The best thing there is for dry patches of skin. It reduces redness and flakiness. I bought it elsewhere, but it's definitely cheaper here. It doesn't leave any stickiness and it's not felt on the skin. I give it a thumbs up.

Awful cream! It leaves a sticky residue and makes my skin oily, causing excessive sebum production. It also leads to breakouts. Additionally, it has a scent reminiscent of Ariel laundry powder.

This cream is not bad, but I didn't notice anything special about it. However, it works quite well as a makeup base.

Nice, lightweight cream that does its job well.

This product provides excellent hydration and does not cause any breakouts. It is suitable for problematic skin.

Unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. Whether before or after use, it leaves the skin dry. I have been using it for a month now, but there are no results whatsoever. It might work decently for oily skin, but for dry skin, it is very weak.

I received a sample just when I was looking for a new cream. I tried it and it worked well for me. I decided to buy the larger version to make a final decision. The cream has a slightly gel-like texture, absorbs quickly, and moisturizes well. I will definitely be buying more.

This cream is excellent. It is lightweight, gentle, absorbs quickly, and has a subtle and pleasant scent. It truly moisturizes the skin.

I received a sample as a gift. It moisturizes well, but that's the only positive aspect. On the downside, it leaves a sticky film on the face - I applied it in the evening and then stuck to the pillow)) Also, it has a very strong scent, which may not be to everyone's liking.

I generally like this brand, but specifically, this gel has a very intense scent, similar to men's cologne. It doesn't provide much moisture either. It would be suitable for guys during the summer.

Thank you for the sample :) The cream is decent, but it has a slight silicone texture. It gives the impression of moisturizing, but in reality, it doesn't provide much hydration. It might be suitable for very oily skin during the summer season.

The best cream I have ever tried. The texture, scent, and most importantly, the effectiveness in moisturizing the skin. I will definitely purchase it again.

This cream is perfect for dry skin. My skin is thin and dry, but the cream nourishes and moisturizes it quite well. The composition is also excellent. I am satisfied because there is no oily film on my face and no stickiness.

This cream-gel is incredibly sticky. After using it, you feel like you're covered in something sticky all day and you want to wipe it off. Moreover, I didn't notice any particular moisturizing effect. On the contrary, when the stickiness dries, it leaves a somewhat dry film. If you sweat, you become sticky again. It gives you the feeling that you haven't slept well and need to wash your face. The stickiness doesn't go away easily, and it attracts dirt to your face. You can't go out for a walk for at least five hours, and even then, you'll feel dust sticking to your face. Additionally, it seems to cause more breakouts. I just want to quickly wash this cream-gel off and preferably not use anything at all.

The cream is good. I have normal skin, prone to dryness. The cream is suitable, moisturizes well, and evens out the tone. Like all cream-gels, it has a melting texture and can be felt on the skin for a few minutes, and then it absorbs and disappears. The scent is pleasant, I liked it. I think it will be light for the winter season. I deducted a star for the sticky feeling immediately after application.

The moisturizer hydrates well, but if I apply it in the morning, I notice a strong oily shine on my face in the second half of the day, which I haven't had before. As others have already mentioned, I have mixed feelings about this cream. Maybe it will work great for winter?!))) Wishing everyone successful purchases!

The cream-gel is truly good; it moisturizes well. The 30ml tube lasted almost 3 months.

This is a good cream that I really like. It absorbs quickly and leaves no greasy residue, making my skin feel soft and smooth.

I have mixed feelings about this product. After application, there is a slight stickiness, which I don't particularly like. As for moisturizing, I didn't quite understand it either.

I have combination skin. This product did not work for me. It was okay on my cheeks, but it quickly made my T-zone oily. Additionally, after three days of use, I noticed white pimples appearing near my nose and chin. When I stopped using it, my skin felt very tight. It took about three days for my skin to recover its previous state.

Someone accurately mentioned below that it's better to be without it than with it. But everyone's experience may vary.

I fell in love with this cream! It was perfect for winter. I have combination skin, which becomes dehydrated in the winter. And this is the only cream that relieved the tightness and got rid of blackheads. I applied it in the morning and evening after using a gel-booster. Now that it has gotten warmer, it doesn't fully absorb and leaves a sticky feeling. But for me, this just means that it's not the right time for it anymore, but I will definitely repurchase it in the autumn.

This is a great product for oily and problematic skin. I use it at night, applying a thin layer. At first, there is a slight stickiness, but then it absorbs and provides light moisture.

The impression of the cream is mixed. I apply it in the morning, with a thin layer on my face after washing and toning. However, afterwards, the cream becomes sticky on the skin, which is not very pleasant; it feels like there is a film on my face. On the other hand, there is no feeling of tightness on the skin, as there was with previous creams, and the cream did not cause any breakouts. My skin is problematic, combination, dehydrated, and tends to get oily quickly. I don't notice any flaking on the skin after using the cream, which is very pleasing. But I probably won't buy it again; it's good that I bought a small size. So, ladies, don't rush to buy a large jar; it may not be suitable for you.

Sticky, lacks any special moisturizing effect. Did not suit me.

I have very dry skin and often have patches that become flaky and itchy. This cream-gel is too lightweight for this skin type, but(!) I want to mention that I used it in a miniature size for just over a month and the overall condition of my skin has improved significantly! Yes, it doesn't feel moisturizing, and I feel like applying a second layer after applying it, but after about 15-20 minutes, my skin becomes more or less normal. My pores have become cleaner and less noticeable, and a small wrinkle on my forehead has become less visible. As soon as I returned to the cream I used before, my face turned into the surface of Mars. Flakiness, pore craters, mountains of pimples. I always thought I had bad skin, but it turns out I had a bad cream.

Overall, I am more than satisfied with the quality of the product. I can even say that I'm in love with it! But this time, I will get the cream instead of the cream-gel for myself.
