Vichy Liftactiv Vitamin C Brightening Serum
Vichy Liftactiv Vitamin C Brightening Serum is an advanced antioxidant treatment formulated with 16% pure Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) — the highest concentration of pure Vitamin C from Vichy — combined with anti-glycation actives to visibly correct early signs of ageing and restore skin luminosity.
Hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, and alcohol-free, this serum is designed for daily morning use, even on sensitive skin.
What Is Vichy Liftactiv Vitamin C Serum?
This is a high-potency brightening and anti-ageing facial serum formulated to:
- Boost skin radiance
- Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
- Reduce visible imperfections
- Protect against oxidative damage
- Combat glycation-related ageing
With a clinically supported formula and 90-day consumer testing, 100% of women reported:
- Brighter skin
- Fewer wrinkles
- Reduced imperfections
(Self-assessment, 40 women, 90 days.)
Its light brown, fluid texture spreads easily, absorbs quickly, and leaves the skin feeling intensely hydrated, comfortable, and non-sticky.
What Does It Target?
Early Signs of Ageing: Fine lines, loss of glow, uneven texture.
- Dull Complexion: Restores radiance and freshness.
- Lifestyle-Induced Skin Ageing: UV exposure, pollution, stress, lack of sleep, and glycation damage.
- Glycation-Related Ageing: Glycation occurs when excess sugars bind to collagen and elastin fibers, weakening their structure and accelerating skin ageing. The result? Loss of elasticity, wrinkles, and dull skin tone.
This formula integrates anti-glycation technology tested in vitro to help counteract this process.
