Should I apply serum before or after moisturizer?

Apply serum after cleansing and before moisturizer and sunscreen. Serums are lightweight and concentrated, so they absorb best on clean, bare skin, and a moisturizer on top seals in hydration. If you use more than one serum, apply the thinnest, most water-based formula first, like LiftActiv 16% Vitamin C Serum in the morning.

When should I use vitamin C and retinol serums?

Use vitamin C in the morning and retinol at night. Apply 3–5 drops of LiftActiv 16% Pure Vitamin C Serum after cleansing, then moisturizer and SPF. Use LiftActiv Pure Retinol Serum (0.2% retinol) only at night, starting a few nights a week and building to nightly as skin tolerates it, with SPF 30+ every day.

Can I layer more than one Vichy serum?

Yes, with the right pairings. Minéral 89 Hydrating & Plumping Daily Booster layers over LiftActiv 16% Vitamin C Serum in the morning or alongside LiftActiv Pure Retinol Serum at night. Keep LiftActiv B3 Serum out of the same routine as retinol or AHAs and BHAs.

What is the best Vichy serum for dry or dehydrated skin?

Minéral 89 Hydrating & Plumping Daily Booster is Vichy's best-selling pick for dry and dehydrated skin. It combines hyaluronic acid and polyglutamic acid with Vichy Volcanic Water to hydrate, plump, and strengthen the moisture barrier. In a self-assessment, 93% of users felt instant hydration. It's fragrance-free and accepted by the National Eczema Association.

What is the best Vichy serum for wrinkles and fine lines?

LiftActiv Collagen Specialist 16 Serum is Vichy’s pick for wrinkles, fine lines and loss of firmness. Its Co-Bond Technology (rhamnose, peptides and maitake) boosts skin affected by collagen loss. In a 12-week consumer test, 100% of women saw reduced wrinkles and fine lines, and 88% saw firmer skin. Apply twice daily, with SPF 30+ during the day.

What is the best Vichy serum for dark spots and uneven skin tone?

LiftActiv B3 Serum for Dark Spots combines 8% niacinamide, 0.5% Melasyl, and 1% tranexamic acid to help regulate excess melanin and visibly fade dark spots, with glycolic acid for gentle exfoliation. Use it twice daily, with SPF every morning. For overall dullness, LiftActiv 16% Pure Vitamin C Serum boosts radiance and evens skin tone.

How do I find the right Vichy serum for me?

Start with your top concern. Hydration points to Minéral 89, dark spots to LiftActiv B3, dullness to LiftActiv 16% Vitamin C, and wrinkles or firmness to the LiftActiv Retinol, Supreme H.A., or Collagen Specialist 16 serums.
