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

I decided to try Vichy cosmetics... the gel is terrible! I applied it to damp skin, and it leaves a sticky film on my face even after an hour. It's a very unpleasant feeling of tightness, and it even clumps when I apply bb cream. I tried applying it to a fluid instead, and it doesn't tighten the skin as much, but everything else remains the same. It's a shame I wasted my money. Hopefully, other products are better.

Wonderful cream. I adore it. It moisturizes excellently, leaving the skin glowing. The texture is gentle. Highly recommended.

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.

It didn't work for me as I have problematic, sensitive, combination skin. I was looking for something with a light texture and I prefer gels. Previously, I tried the L'Oreal Moisturizing Genius, but I didn't like how it left my face shiny after a while. With this product, it's even worse. After half an hour, my face looks like an oily pancake, and I've also noticed an increase in breakouts. I tried using it both as a day and night treatment.

The cream is very good.
It absorbs instantly, leaving the skin not tight, and after a few days, the skin looks healthier.
It moisturizes well and lasts the whole day.
It can be used as a day and night cream.
The results from using the cream are noticeable, both immediately and after prolonged use.
I decided to buy the cream after using a mask from Vichy from the same series for a long time.
I will continue to use it, but not on a regular basis, specifically during late autumn, winter, and early spring, which is exactly what I need.
I have combination to dry skin. It is difficult to find a cream that either doesn't absorb, leaves a greasy shine, doesn't moisturize, or only moisturizes some areas.
This cream is one of the few that immediately suited me.
I apply a little more on dry areas and very little on the T-zone, because if I apply more, the skin becomes sticky and a greasy film may appear.

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.

Lightweight, moisturizing cream. Perfect for combination skin during the summer.

This cream is really great! It leaves my skin feeling pleasant and moisturized, and it also works well as a base for foundation! It has a pleasant scent and a little goes a long way, so it will last for a long time. It's perfect for my combination skin!

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.

Before this, I had the Thermal night SPA, which I really liked, so I decided to try this one. The consistency here is a bit thicker, in my opinion. I apply it separately in the morning and as a booster in the evening. So, with the booster, I prefer how it works, it moisturizes more, which is logical. I can really feel this hydration. However, in the morning, I don't feel it as much, the gel absorbs almost immediately (I have combination skin and don't experience moisture deficiency). I don't feel it, but visually, you can see the hydration, that's true. It's a bit strange to use, honestly, but I like it, it's great. Oh, and it also mattifies well, although I don't see excessive shine as a big problem.

I have combination skin. I had high hopes for this cream, but it didn't work for me. I initially tested a sample from the pharmacy, then decided to try the 30ml version. I am disappointed. After using it for more than 1-1.5 weeks, I started getting terrible breakouts, especially around my chin area. Initially, I didn't understand the cause of the breakouts and continued using it for about 1.5-2 months. The pimples became a constant issue on my skin. After analyzing my skincare routine, I suspected this cream to be the culprit. I stopped using it several times, and the breakouts disappeared. However, whenever I started using it again, the pimples would return. This is the first time I've experienced such a situation with skincare products.

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.

I really like it. It is lightweight, quickly absorbed, and does not leave any shine or residue. However, I do not like the scent as it reminds me of men's cologne. Nevertheless, it moisturizes the skin beautifully.

Not worth it. Three stars for its ability to reduce tightness and its economical consumption. It doesn't provide much hydration, it's slightly better when used with a booster (but what's the point of buying this cream with a booster when you can get a decent cream for the same price without layering it on your face?). By the way, if you apply it with a booster during the day, it's very difficult to apply makeup, it all smears. It also doesn't even out my skin tone, after a month of use, I can't say that my combination skin has improved. It leaves a sticky feeling on the face. If I wipe it off with a toner after an hour or two, I can see quite a lot of dust that has successfully accumulated during that time. It makes the T-zone very oily, despite its gel-like structure.

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.
