Skin Care Review: Vichy Reti-C

Rating
Excellent

Benefits
Lightening of melasma; clear, fine, "glowing skin" combined with other treatment

Drawbacks
Not available in the Philippines

Details
I had a problem with severe melasma brought about an unexpected adverse reaction to a treatment (Triluma) recommended by my dermatologist. My doctor gave me a sample of Reti-C by Vichy to replace the Triluma.I used Reti-C by Vichy for about 3-4 weeks only as I ran out of it. I used this is combination with diamond peel and Vit C serum (Dermatics). I used Reti-C only at night and washed it thorougly with a non-soap cleanser in the morning per my doctor's recommentation. During daytime I used only Vit C serum (Dermatics), moisturizer, a full spectrum sunblock (VMV) and foundation (l'Oreal), in that order. The result? Fading of the melasma, fine, glowing skin.

Conclusions
Great product in combination with compatible treatment. Use a sunblock
