WISHLIST: Vichy Normaderm Anti-Age

Vichy's Normaderm line is one of the few out there designed for acne (imperfection) prone adult skin. Most other skin care companies unfortunately do have the tendency to think imperfections go away with adolescence, and have no consideration for a quite wide ranging consumer group of adults who indeed still have issues with blemishes and breakouts.

Normaderm is therefore not only quite unique, but also rather good (and affordable!). I have myself in the past used them with good results, and I also have friends who swear by it. Well Normaderm is about to get even better.

In september, the new Normaderm Anti-Age gel-cream should hit the shelves in Italian pharmacies for the pleasure of those of us who do not only suffer from (coming and going) clogged pores (even though I cannot really complain now if I think about how it used to be in the past), blemishes and uneven skin, but also are well in the age of thinking about preventing skin from premature aging. This new product will work with ingredients like lipo-hydroxy acid, glycolic acid and glycosylated vitamin C, all meant to gently exfoliate, stimulate skin cells, unclog pores, fade dark spots and "wipe off" (or prevent) wrinkles. In addition, being a gel-cream, it should be lighter and less invasive than regular anti-age products.

Although usually I do not like gel based skin care, this one I will have to give a go! Just sounds too promising. I will of course also have to do some additional research, but based on the active ingredients I think even my pregnant/soon to give birth and start breastfeeding system will be able to use this and take it in without any potential harm to my baby.
