Vichy Ideal White Meta-Whitening Sleeping Mask Review

Hello everyone,

Hope you all are doing great
I'm back again with review of an awesome product from VICHY.

yes!! its the much awaited Vichy Ideal White Meta-Whitening Sleeping Mask.

I have used couple of products from Ideal White range back in the year beginning and totally Loved them, and the moment i got to know about the mask launch in India i was all excited!!! 
coz' very few brands and products succeed in Impressing my moody, sensitive skin :P

• Advice on massage application:

1. Work a small amount of product in the palms and fingers of both hands
2. Apply with slow, smoothing motions using the whole surface of your hands, from the sides of the nose to the outside of the face followed by smoothing out across the forehead.

My Take on the product :

Like i mentioned, i used other variants of this range from Vichy earlier so was keen on trying this sleeping mask too.
*Pleasant smell
*been using it over a month now, never broke my skin.
*no flares ever noted on my sensitive moody skin.
*if i apply a thick layer of product and use it as a sleeping mask, my skin feels a bit heavy but hardly for 10 mins..thereafter it feels like a routine nourishing night cream.

*you need a very little product to work its claims..so a 75ml packaging goes a long way.
*many products that i try tend to make my skin sweat the moment i apply them,but products from this range never disappointed me.

*coz' of the busy schedule that i follow, my skin care really lacks behind and after a really tiring day at work, this sleeping mask delivers all the pampering that my skin deserves.
*I wake up with a soft, dewy skin that feels fresh & rejuvenated.
* I can't comment on it's overall skin lightening effects but after using it for more than a month i have noticed much even complexion... few of those sun spots have faded considerably and haven't noticed appearance of any new one.

*If you're someone like me who turns quite lazy when it comes to skincare than this sleeping mask is definitely for you...so much of Love delivered to your skin on a single Go!!!
just apply the mask and head ti bed..just to wake up with a Happier, brighter and much hydrated skin the very next day!!!
*One demerit that i can point is the heavy glass packaging which makes it a big 'No-N0' during travels.

Overall Verdict: 4.5/5

I definitely recommend this product and i'm sure i'll be repurchasing this once i finish my jar of Happiness :)
And did i mention, this Vichy Ideal white sleeping mask turned out to be a Perfect Mother's Day gift for my Mommy <3 she totally Loved it.
*Happy Dancing*

That's all i have for now... if you've used this mask or you plan to try this,do lemme know your views.

Until next time, goodbye & takecare you all lovelies :*
