Vichy New Aqualia Thermal Dynamic Hydration Power Serum

 Vichy is a well-known skincare brand to most of us. Vichy Products are tested to be suitable for Asian Sensitive Skin and Paraben-Free, which makes people with sensitive skin like me, happy girls to pamper our skin with! Being in the pharmacy line previously and working with the healthcare line, Vichy Laboratories Products are popularly recommended by most doctors and dermatologists in major healthcare industries (i.e skin clinics, hospitals, pharmacies).
 I was overwhelmed when Vanitytrove and Vichy by L'Oréal Singapore approached me with their latest creation - Vichy New Aqualia Thermal Dynamic Hydration Serum!
Due to my working environment and my skin nature (Dry and Sensitive), I had a hard time searching for skincare products that suit me. The sweet people over at Vichy by L'Oréal Singapore prepared a box full of wonderful goodness that suits my skin type.
It is the 1st Hydrating Power Serum containing 3 energising sugars & Vichy Thermal Spa Water to capture and retain moisture in our skin. Furthermore, it's enhanced with Dynamic Hydration technology to provide an evenly spread of the moisture in all facial zones for fresh-looking skin all day!
Vichy New Aqualia Thermal Dynamic Hydration Serum
3 Energising Sugars:
- Carrageenans: Derived form marine red algae, this active ingredient helps to repair skin's barrier function, smoothens and softens the skin.
- Aquabioryl: A patented ingredient of L'Oréal, it ensures a continuous supply of moisture to all facial zones via dynamic water diffusion.
- Hyaluronic Acid: A super efficient hydrating ingredient which replumps skin's surface by enhancing its capacity to retain water.
 It's ultra-light and fast-absorbing. 
After spreading out the serum, it actually leaves a non-greasy; non-sticky texture!
My skin feels instantly supple and  has a slight brightening glow to it :)
 The other Product that was in the package: Vichy Aqualia Thermal Dynamic Hydration Light Cream!
This is applied after the serum, to allow skin to be replenished with water and provide a fresh complexion!
The cream provides a non-greasy;non-sticky texture as well, which is lightweight for my skin:)

KEEPING OUR SKIN HYDRATED!

Step 1: 1 bottle of water right before you leave home.
The daily commute often takes away huge amounts of water from our skin, even before the day starts! Drinking water right before you leave home helps to build a water fortress which keeps your body fluids balanced. It also controls the calorie count in your body, so what's there not to love about water?

Step 2: Give your skin a 'perk-me-up'
By midday, your skin's surface is probably in dire needs of water replenishment due to exposure of air conditioning and pollution. A light spray with Vichy's Thermal Spa Water is all you need to revive the dull and dry desert. Vichy's Thermal Spa Water, extracted from Vichy Springs in France, is 100% Pure and infused with 15 rare minerals which protects your skin against free radicals, soothing and keeping it hydrated throughout the course of your busy day!

Step 3: Hydration before your good night's sleep.
We're sure you know that sufficient sleep (6-8 hours) is important. But do you know that when you sleep, and your cells renew, water is the primary ingredient that is used up in this process? Make sure your skin is prepped with Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum which will keep all zones in the face continuously hydrated for the entire night and more!

Vichy New Aqualia Thermal Dynamic Hydration Serum (SGD$52 for 30ml) is now launched in Major Pharmacies and Retailers: Guardian, Unity, Watsons, Hospital Pharmacies, Derma Centre.

Psst: Share with us on VanityTrove using the hashtag #dynamichydration#vichysingapore and stand a chance to win one 1 of the 5 Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum that VanityTrove will be giving away!

Good Luck! :)

The La Mer Experience - Vanitytrove

Hello Everyone! :)
La Mer is a renowned brand that I have heard and researched about for some time. Reviews said that it actually helps our skin improve over time and the changes is justifiable. As much as I'm eager to try, the pricing range pulls me away from visiting the counters. I seek Vanitytrove for help and they did take all their subscribers suggestions to heart :)
For those who have gotten their September Trove weeks back, you would have realised there's 2 Vanitytrove Pink Carpet's Invitations to 2 different Workshops, Sally Hansen Nail Care and La Mer The New Ageless Skincare Workshop. I was thrilled to see La Mer invitation!

Just a month later, I see this!! Trule stoked, I found my dear colleague turned friend to accompany me along as we are both skincare fanatics! It's chargeable to $80 for 1 pax and $120 for 2 pax. It comes with $60 voucher redemable on their products! We didn't regret, in fact we came out learning something new :)

Oftd: LB Jamie Top x TVD Maxi x Ferragamo Jellies x CCSkye x Prada x Chanel x T&Co.

My dearest mentor at internship turned friends :) She's another keeper and thank god for her presence in life too :)



Every participant's Essential set at workshop :) The main iconic Soft Creme de La Mer was the main focus of the workshop! This is the 5th texture that La Mer came up with!

As we were taught on the proper regimen, skincare application steps and real hands on session, slides were shown for us to take notes of! I love this session cause it's held in small sessions, the presenter actually makes sure everyone dip their hands to discover the effectiveness of the products! I went with it too even though I had make up!! haha and I forgotten to bring out my makeup kit after =(
I'm glad I did hands on! It's so fun and I really learnt alot. The founder was a physicist who was badly burnt in a chemical experiment. It took him 12 years and 6000 experiments to finally came up with the iconic Creme de La Mer. It says to help heal his skin scars and the main ingredient was Sea Kelp!
Both of us agree the brand was indeed helping our skin rejuvenate and improve :) On first trial, our skin feels smoother and supple! We went home with stuff too, after much advise and discussion with the experts. They won't push u to buy stuff which is redundant to your skincare, but listens to your needs and craft out a regimen and suitable products for us to purchase and use!

Limited Edition Travel Set - Eye Concentrate, Rejuvinating Serum and Creme de La Mer

Exclusive free gifts with purchase specially for this workshop! :)
There's also free facial (U.P.$150) for those who purchase up to $700!
La Mer is known for not giving these stuff if you buy over at the counters, thus it helps all present to save alot! :)

Exclusively only to Vanitytrove, for the 1st 50 who signed up, there's a special La Mer edition of Trove for us to take home! These are the surprises that came in my trove! There's extra 2 travel size items on top of the normal door gifts for regular participants! They are really generous on the samples they give, thumbs up! :)
P/s: There's free eye therapy(U.P.$150) for every participant as well!

Thank you once again La Mer for the ultimate experience I had at this workshop and to Vanitytrove for organising this Pink Carpet Event :)

Cheers to the friendship that started out of the blue!

Hello Everyone!
Happy Hari Raya to all! Cheers to a long weekend that started since Fri night! Met up with my shopaholic girls over some omega love and chilling! I'm glad and blessed to have known them, especially my namaste girls. You girls are my pillar of strength at times, thank you :)

It was then over to Sauce at Esplanade for some chilling chit chat session!



You girls are the best! More to come! :)
Recent oftds for the weekend!

All ready for bowling! =D

Casual for sunday Family's Day!

Latest Read!

Heard of Nioxin through reviews and friends recommendations over twitter that this helps in people who have hair thinning problems like me! Hope this works!

Mixed reviews of SKII from everyone around me, but I have decided to take the plunge and try it out! I love the smell and texture of the Cellumination Deep Surge EX and Cellumination Mask-in Lotion! Crossed Fingers hoping it works!

Tried Macaroons Baking for the first time without any professional help over the weekend! My virgin experience at baking! Lots of hiccups in between. Too ambitious in aiming to do up 60 macaroons, however dissapointment was huge. Alot of batter was wasted and shapes of the completed ones were far comparable from those sold in stores! Thanks to my dearest Audrey's encouragement, I will still continue to try and never give up! Cheers to the next attempt! =D
I'm happy for this long weekend and short break over work! Cherishing every moment I can get! Till the next everyone!
