Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum Review
About Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum: Using the concept of advanced dynamic hydration technology, that helps distribute & lock water in all facial zones, the serum gives an exquisite finish to the skin by reinforcing its natural hydrating system, boost internal water circulation and enhance its anti-oxidant power.
Unlike moisturizers which create an artificial barrier over the skin against the environmental stimulants, the Aqualia Thermal range works with the natural system of hydration to give you skin that glows with health and has a lasting feel of hydration through the day.
The Aqualia Thermal Serum uses the dynamic hydration system to give you plump and perfectly hydrated skin for over 48 hours, irrespective of your skin type. With an unparalleled finish, this ultra-fluid water gel delivers plenty of freshness, a ‘bare skin’finish and is quickly absorbed on application.

Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum comes in this long and slender aqua blue bottle with a transparent cap and a pump packaging. The pump is easy to use and dispense the product, no pressing 10 times to get the product unlike in few.
It’s a glass bottle and slightly heavy,hence not very travel friendly. Coming to the texture, it is off white in color, and gel like in texture as most serums. It feels slightly slippery but not much and gets easily absorbed into the skin, without leaving any residue or slippery feeling even though it has silicones (Dimethicone & Dimethiconol)
It is very hydrating and moisturising, my skin feels evenly hydrated and there have been no breakouts or dry patches with this. And the best part is no stickiness or greasiness at all! It is so light that you would not feel you have used any moisturizer and still have your skin completely hydrated.
It does what it claims, hydrated, plump and fresh looking skin all day. I use it once in the morning and I am sorted, I sometimes use it at night too, but currently using a different product at night time.
It does not claim much like even skin tone or anti-ageing, etc, so all it does it provide you hydration. This will work great for all skin types, be it oily or dry, since it does it’s job of hydration well and is very light in texture.
It is a bit on the expensive side, but this lasts really long as you need just one single pump for your entire face and neck. It is available online and also on www.vichy.in
Overall, I would say it is not something which makes tall claims about giving you flawless skin, but it does what it claims. So if you are looking for a good moisturiser for your dry skin or have dry patches on the skin, then this will definitely work for you. Recommended.
