Vichy Mineral 89 - Probiotic Recovery&Defence Serum formulated for all skin types and it is the newest addition to the Minéral 89 range which is specially designed for stressed and weakened skin.

This special regenerating and repairing concentrate is enriched with probiotic fractions, 4% Niacinamide, Antioxidant Vitamins and Vichy Volcanic Mineralizing Water to support the skin strength while assisting in the protection against acute skin stressors.

Minéral 89 Probiotics is proven to visibly improve dullness, elasticity, stress lines and overall radiance for the recharge of stressed skin needs. It improves radiance and elasticity, smooths and strengthens the skin's resistance to stress.

Probiotics: A new approach to skin protection and reparation

Probiotic fractions are a new solutionto improve skin health by strengthening barrier function, enhancing skin hydration and preventing inflammation.

It is clearly known that probiotics significantly enhance intestinal barrier function and help to prevent intestinal barrier dysfunction. However dermatologists and other skin experts have found that their benefits go beyond digestive health. It was observed that probiotics intake could improve our skin from the inside out.

Furthermore a number of human skin conditions and disorders characterized by an inflammatory state are often associated with defects in epidermal barrier function. According to the beneficial properties conferred by probiotics on intestinal epithelial barrier and skin conditions, it seems that probiotics could be a great skincare ingredient when applied topically.

Dermatologist Tested -  Hypoallergenic - Fragrance Free

All formulas have a fresh, light gel-like texture that absorbs into the complexion immediately, drenching it with instant moisture.

WHY VICHY MINERAL 89 IS FOR EVERY SKINCARE ROUTINE

Vichy Mineral 89 range - is an essential Hyaluronic Acid hydration booster for every skincare routine. Hyaluronic Acid is the wonder ingredient on every beauty editor and facialist’s lips. Why? Not only is it a super humectant that’s really effective at plumping and rehydrating the appearance of the skin – smoothing fine lines and wrinkles as it does – it’s also suitable for every skin type. Even sensitive. Discover how you can fit this moisturising molecule into your beauty routine, according to your skin type.

Dry and sensitive skin

Sensitive skin is often caused by aggressors and irritants in the environment that damage the skin’s natural barrier function. This barrier plays an important role in protecting the epidermis from bacteria while helping to hold in water. When it’s damaged, however, the skin can become more sensitive and prone to dryness and redness. This is where Hyaluronic Acid can really help to repair and strengthen the barrier, bringing some much-needed moisture and calmness back to the epidermis.

Your routine: 

Vichy’s Mineral 89 Skin Serum (Booster/Probiotic Serum) should be the first step in your skincare routine so apply it to freshly cleansed, dry skin. This will help to hydrate the skin throughout the day while protecting the skin from aggressors in the environment.
Follow this with a super-soothing moisturiser such as Aqualia Day Cream to keep the complexion looking dewy and fresh for up to 48 hours.
Your final step should always be a lightweight broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your skin from harmful UV damage.

Oily and blemish-prone skin

Oily skin can be caused by a number of things such as genetics, hormones and stress which increase the production of sebum in the pores. While excess oil isn’t harmful to the skin, it can start to congest the pores over time leading to blemishes, open pores and blackheads.  If you have oily skin, you may think that adding extra moisture is the last thing your skin needs, but in fact, it can help. If you dry out an oily skin type with harsh ingredients, it will become very dry and produce more oil to compensate. Hyaluronic Acid on the other hand, can help to restore balance as it’s hydrating yet lightweight (holding 1000 times its own weight in water) so it won’t clog the pores or add extra oil to your skin.

Your routine:

Start by washing your skin thoroughly with a cleanser such as Normaderm’s Phyosolution Purifying Gel. This will clear excess sebum and impurities from the skin with salicylic acid and glycolic acid – chemical exfoliants that are gentle enough to be used every day.

Next, lock hydration into your skin with two to three pumps of the Mineral 89 Skin Booster and a lightweight moisturiser such as Normaderm’s Phytosolution Double Correction Daily Care. This will help to protect the skin’s barrier and control excess oil.

Ageing and menopausal skin

As we age, our skin naturally starts to lose moisture, collagen and elastin which creates sagging, lines and wrinkles to appear. Dryness in the skin can also be caused by hormonal changes in the body during the menopause. While we can’t stop the natural ageing process, we can help the skin to appear smoother and more radiant by replenishing lost moisture with our skincare. This is where Hyaluronic Acid really comes into its own as it creates a plumping effect in the epidermis, reducing the appearance of ageing signs and restoring comfort.

Your routine: 

After washing your face with a hydrating cleanser, apply a Hyaluronic Acid-enriched booster such as Mineral 89 to instantly plump up the skin and improve the look of lines and wrinkles.
Next, help to strengthen the skin’s barrier function and stimulate cell  renewal with a concentrated dose of serum via an ampoule such as Vichy’s Liftactiv Peptide-C. This particular formula also contains multi-molecular Hyaluronic Acid and works to rehydrate and smooth the appearance of the epidermis.
If your skin is very thirsty, you can then follow this with a moisturiser suited to your needs. Vichy’s Collagen Specialist Day Cream can help improve the appearance of ageing signs such as a loss of firmness, skin tone and wrinkles. But if your skin dryness is more hormone related, Vichy’s Neovadiol Compensating Complex Day Cream will help to address ageing signs caused by the menopause.

Don’t forget, whatever your skin type,the last step in your routine should always be a broad-spectrum sunscreen. This will help to prevent the acceleration of ageing signs and UV damage. 

Like all skin products, Vichy Mineral 89 - Probiotic Recovery&Defence Serum for Stressed Skin can cause side effects, however, this may be less likely.

• Do not use it, if you are allergic to any of the ingredients.

If you get any side effects, talk to your doctor, our Rightdose pharmacists or nurse.

The many ways to use Vichy Mineral 89 

There are some products that really are worth their weight in gold, and we think that Vichy new Minéral 89 skin booster is one. Designed to help shield the skin from daily pollution and aggressors while helping to strengthen, plump and boost hydration, it’s the perfect way to keep the skin looking and feeling healthy.

The best part? It’s so much more than a serum. From in-flight hydration to a post-gym refresher, it can be used in a multitude of ways. 

As an everyday serum
Minéral 89 is a key everyday staple, it creates a perfect base, layers easily with other products, gives an instant shot of freshness and to know it is helping protect the skin from pollution is an added extra.

After shaving
Use Minéral 89 every day after showering and shaving. The skin often feels tight after cleansing and this works as a nice hydrator. Just a little goes a long way as its lightweight texture spreads and absorbs easily.

For travelling and long flights
Minéral 89 is the ideal item to pack when going away for a long weekend or a two-week beach holiday. The texture is refreshing but doesn’t make the skin greasy, plus this new Probiotic 30ml version is even more perfect as it fits in your hand luggage easily but lasts ages.

As a makeup primer
You can apply this serum just before makeup. It’s great for prepping skin as it’s ultra-hydrating, never feels sticky or heavy and sinks in straight away. The skin feels smooth and fresh. You can follow with your favourite foundation.

As part of a Sunday facial
Make your absolute favourite way to use Minéral 89 is as part of Sunday facial. After cleansing follow with a toner and then massage Mineral 89 all over your face and onto the neck, followed by a light moisturiser. The skin is left feeling hydrated, plumped and completely fresh.

After exercise
Balancing a busy lifestyle with regular gym workouts can take its toll on the skin. Pollution, make-up removal and sweat leave my skin feeling dehydrated and dull. You can use Minéral 89 after every gym session to give the skin a much-needed boost of hydration. Paired with a Vitamin C serum and SPF, skin feels plumped and protected.

Before using any skin products, it is important to read the information and follow the instructions on the package.

When to use

The first gesture in your skin care regime to leave skin plump, protected and ready for the next step.

Apply after cleansing before your serum or moisturiser.

• Apply every morning and evening to clean dry skin as the first step of your skincare routine prior to additional serums and moisturizers for optimal results.
• Gently pat the Mineral 89 Probiotic Fractions Concentrate into to the skin with soft, pressured dabs, allowing the skin to absorb the full formula.

For morning use, whatever your skin type, we recommend finishing as the last step in your routine should always be a broad-spectrum sunscreen. Finishing off your routine with SPF is important for a nourished, radiant, and most importantly shielded barrier on your skin to combat the day. This will help to prevent the acceleration of ageing signs and UV damage.
