3 star ingredients at the French Pharmacy

France is revered for its museums and good food establishments, but also for its pharmacies, where the shelves are full of the best skincare products. Vichy offers you 3 natural ingredients with nutritional properties.

Rhamnose


This tree extract is the star ingredient of the Liftactiv anti-aging product range. Why? Because its biological effects help to fight effectively against premature aging by restoring the activity of the papillary dermis (tissue under the skin). Rhamnose acts as a receiver and sends signals to the cells. Essential for plumper skin, smoothing out wrinkles and leaving the features more relaxed.

Shea butter


From Equatorial Africa, shea butter is used in cosmetics for its nourishing, restorative and soothing properties. Therefore, it is at the heart of Neovadiol facial care range, designed for skin changes associated with menopause. During this period, the epidermis can sag, lose its density and radiance. Rich in fatty acids, shea butter strengthens the protective role of the skin barrier and fills the epidermis with reconstructing lipids. The key to revitalized skin, radiant with energy!

Vegetable oils


Vegetable oils resemble one another, but are not equal. For its Neovadiol range, Vichy has most particularly chosen to use rice bran oil and safflower oil. Why? Because these oils are rich in omega 6 and 9: fatty acids naturally present in cell membranes. They help to preserve the skin’s flexibility, to maintain its elasticity and ensure the cohesion of its tissues. In addition, they help to minimize aging due to the sun and UV rays, and therefore, they reduce the loss of collagen. Ideal active ingredients for mature skin in need of nutrition.
