Most Helpful Positive Review Amazing Sunscreen Moisturizer I'm not a big fan of applying sunscreen to my face but this Vichy Sunscreen LiftActiv Peptide C moisturizer has completely changed my mind. What I love about this product is that it protects against the harmful rays of the sun, it contains anti aging properties, and its formularized as a moisturizer. I haven't seen a skincare product like this ever on the beauty market. I love being able to wear this product alone just as a protective sunscreen. I also love being able to apply makeup over it as well. The moisturizer feels very lightweight and sinks into the skin fairly quickly when applied. It gives my skin a bit of a light sheen. Since using this product, I've noticed my skin looking more firm, my complexion looks much more brighter and I've also noticed less fine lines. I'm definitely purchasing this skincare product again as soon as I run out because I can't imagine not having it in my everyday skincare routine. It's such a staple, that I've been raving and recommending this product to all my friends.
Most Helpful Critical Review Not a bad choice To start off, I have combination type skin and do not like the greasy "glowing" look and wear minimal makeup if at all. I used this product every morning for the past week in addition to my usual toner, vitamin c serum, and moisturizer. Immediately after applying everything, my face felt and looked quite greasy. However, after some time, it starts to even out to a more velvety feel which I much prefer. Since, I've only been using this for a week, I don't know it's effective with firming the skin yet. However, I noticed that the skin texture has evened out some. As for the skin brightening, I am not sure if it's the serum finally kicking in or if it's the magical combination of using both but I recently noticed that my brown sun spots seem lighter! I like the idea of this product having multiple skin benefits in one product but also hesitant to put all my trust into one product.
Overall, I liked the feel of the product on my skin, it helped with evening out my skin texture (such as my dry spots), possibly helped with evening out my skin tone. For an untinted sunscreen, it didn't leave my face pasty white as some other products do. While this may not be my go-to sunscreen just yet, it's currently in my top 3. That's because my #1 is tinted and #2 is a tad less greasy after application.
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me this Vichy sunscreen to try out!

This is great stuff. Smells nice too. I'm so glad I tried the Vichy line, and just ordered the vitamin C
Smell too strong but great formula 2

I can't speak to the effectiveness of the formula because I was immediately turned off by the smell. It's too strong. It does absorb well and feels nice on my skin.
Ill start shopping for another sunscreen 3

Good product, but the smell is too strong. Not sure why so much perfume was added.

This product protects your skin without feeling heavy or sticky and is great under makeup. It leaves my skin soft. I will purchase again.

The LiftActiv Peptide-C diminishes lines and makes my skin appear smoother. Makeup goes on easily over this product. As an RN I enjoy opening the ampule; perfectly safe. I would buy it again

I want to give this moisturizer more stars but the scent is a bit off-putting. It will first leave a white cast but it will disappear in a matter of a minute or less. It moisturizing enough that I tolerate the fragrance. If you can tolerate strong fragrance on a moisturizer then you might like this one. But if do not have a high tolerance with fragrance skincare I would advice you to skip this moisturizer. Hope that helps! :) Vichy Liftactiv Peptide C Sunscreen Spf 30

My favorite sunscreen yet. 5
Lucy17 from Brick, NJ
I tried sunscreens from almost every line imaginable. This works great for my skin because of its smooth greaseless yet hydrating texture. It is a little pricey but it doesn't irritate my skin, has no residue, and contains Vitamin C which is a plus. In the summer I will use a higher SPF but for most days of the year, this formula works best for my skin.

I tried this product last year after the sunscreen I was using was discontinued. I have a lot of experience with Vichy and reached out to someone at the company when I saw this to get their opinion. She told me I would love it and she was right! Vichy Laboratoires

Vichy's Best! 5
Wozniak from Irvine, CA
Provides effective sun protection for daily living. Non-greasy feel and easy to apply. Light fragrance typical of French skin care products, but not over bearing. May be applied multiple times a day without that oil slick feeling.

It works great on my skin, has a great smell..
Just ok. 3
Teep from Ft Lauderdale, FL
I was honestly not particularly impressed. It was difficult to make the pump work. It felt a little thin on my hands, which was confirmed when it slid into my eyes — not usually a problem I find in similar products. Not greasy and can be used under makeup, which is great but it's not very moisturizing. My final take would be: meh.

Melissay64 from Killeen
Loved how it made my skin feel so smooth and moisturized. I only reapplied once. Helped brighten my complexion. I recommend to anyone looking for a light weight spf.

Fantastic!! 5
Riverlily94 from USA
I honestly didn't know how much I would absolutely love this!!! It isn't heavy on your face which is wonderful because I wear it to work and they have me outside quite a lot. What's nice too is that it doesn't melt when you sweat. I dreaded swearing and having run into my eyes. 10/10 would recommend!!!
Great SPF Moisturizer 5
Jena from Texas
I have to admit that I haven't tested the SPF capabilities much for Vichy LiftActiv Peptide-C Face Sunscreen SPF 30 because we really don't leave the house that often at the moment. But it is always going to put on SPF just in case. I do love it as a moisturizer underneath my makeup. Just a thin layer of SPF on the off chance that I need to run an errand still keeps my face moisturized under a the makeup I wear for work while working virtually/remotely.
