My favorite moisturizer. I use(d) it with the pink oligo foaming cleanser for years. I just started using the cleanser again as my skin is back to normal after 2 babies. SO SAD that the cleanser has been discontinued. My face feels so comfortable with this on. not dry and tight and not slick and greasy....just nice and light and clean. also i love the scent and i usually hate fragrances on my sensitive skin but this didn't bug me. Bring it back, Vichy

I have to say that I am very disappointed with this product. After I apply it, it leaves my skin feeling dry and and bit stretched (as if I had washed my face with a bar of soap). The scent is OK not good nor bad. The packaging is very unpractical for traveling purposes. Not what I was expecting for the 16 euros I paid.
I was looking for a moisturizer that not only hydrated my skin but to make it look fresh and radiant. Got the complete opposite

I have used Oligo 25 for at least the last 8 yrs, I have norm/combo skin but every new product stings my face for a couple of days and most of them just sting so much I have to stop using them. Oligo 25 never once stung my face and I loved it so imagine my disapointment when I was told its been discontinued. Why Vichy, WHY!!! God you have no idea the suffering I now have to endure to find a new moisturzer, tried some of the new Vichy Quilia Thermel range but as usual had to stop due to stinging and burning. Bring back Oligo 25 PLEASE!!

The green color is a bit odd but otherwise I like this. I use this during the day - it's not too heavy for oily skin but not too thin for dry skin. It sinks right in and doesn't feel greasy or filmy. I like the jar - though I know some people find it unhygienic to stick fingers inside but I feel this gets more bang for your buck - you use every bit vs. pumps. The color is kinda weird though - not really sure why it is green. I also recommend using more on part that are dry because if you use an even amount, the drier areas still feel a bit tight. That's my experience and I just dab on more. It's not really a HG or a cream that I can't live without but if it was on sale I would buy it again.

Update on this: I didn't really know what was going on with my skin, I started have tons and tons of clogged pores, bumps everywhere, and i started to develop cyctic acne!
I stopped using it a switched back to Cetaphil and I am fine...

This moisturizer is fair, but nothing special. It's can be used under make up, and I like it to some point, but my face looks oily. There are cheaper products that would do the same job.

Before I stopped using moiusturizers on my face. (my face is too oily, i would just break out, so i only use eye cream) I had used this for about 6 months
one jar lasted me about 2 months
I actually really liked this product, it was youthful, not too thick, went on nice calmed my skin
I gave my mom the rest and she actually said she wanted to buy it again because she liked it
price is very decent for a good moiusturizer
I would reccomend this

I love this product. I had severe acne with cystic type and this moisturizer was perfect for it..I use aveeno cleansing foam for sensitive skin and this moisturizer morning and night. My skin has completely cleared up. Also my scars are almost gone because of the anti dull agent in the moisturizer...Love it.

i found that this the texture of this product is very light and cream like. it goes onto my skin and blends well and absorbs sinking in quite fast leaving my skin smooth and soft. there is also a nice smell to it. not everyone will like it though as some people like their products to be fragrance free. however i really don't see a difference in the "anti-dull" part. other than that, it's like another moisturizer. but i have other brands i use like cetaphil, olay, la mer... this one isn't particularly great.

Did nothing for me... And I don't think it suitable for combination or oily skin. Maybe if you like to look shiny and greasy... But I don't...

When I bought this moisturizer, I had recently switched cleansers. The cleanser I started using was much more drying, so I went looking for a moisturizer that would help my skin retain its natural moisture without causing greasiness. Not only did this moisturizer not hydrate my skin, it caused my face to look like an oil spill about 30 mins after application. This is the most expensive moisturizers I've bought so far, and one of the most disappointing.

PROS:
- amazing texture - light and silky, sinks right in after application
- keeps my combo skin moisturized without a heavy feeling
- does not clog pores
- does not cause break-outs
- comes in a jar (yes, it's a huge plus for me)
CONS:
- heavily scented, I personally love the scent but someone might find it unpleasant
OTHER THOUGHTS:
My HG moisturizer, I've been using it for years and couldn't find anything better though I'd tried a lot of products including Shiseido, La Roshe-Posay, L'occitaine, Decleor, Avene, Biotherm, Dior and some others.
I am not sure if it does anything to my skin tone, my skin never looked dull to begin with.

This is my favourite moisturizer... I love the gel/cream texture - it melts onto my face and gets absorbed really easily and quickly. I tried another cream after I finished this one, but went back to this one because it does seem to brighten up the skin and make it less dull. I have combination skin, and it feels great to wear this under makeup... I wish it contained spf, but since it doesn't, I follow up with vichy's sunscreen fluid as it also has a really light texture that doesn't make my face feel clogged. both products are part of my everyday routine, and I highly recommend both! Also find that this green cream is the perfect texture when used on a qtip to take off mascara mistakes from eyelids -- it's not greasy at all, but very satisfyingly moisturizing. sent my sister this cream as a christmas present and she likes it too!

This moisturizer is "just right" for my combination skin. It's light enough for my rosacea but it's heavy enough to carry me through the Canadian winter months.
My skin absorbs it really easily, which reduces the redness in my cheeks and I've had no issues with breakouts during the last few months I've been using it.
Price wise it's not too bad either, since a jar of this will last a long while.
I sometimes wish it had SPF so I could use it over the day in the summer, but that would probably make the texture heavier and it probably wouldn't work for my skin as well. One thing they could improve is the packaging - it should came in a pump bottle instead.

i LOVE this! i first heard about this product from a sample i got at a drugstore from buying this fragrance set for my mom....all girls love free samples, right? so i gave this a try...first thing i fell in love with is the scent...i dont know about other users of this cream but the scent is like a refreshing spring day to me, it's awesome...the sample lasted me about 3 days or so, twice a day, and i was able to notice the difference in my skin...it started to feel smoother and clean, but not oily..it dries pretty nicely....i hate cream that leave ur face feeling semi sticky or oily...this doesn't do either of that! i highly recommend this to everyone...see if u can get a sample of this first to see if it suits ur skin..if it does, go buy it! i sure did right away and now i'm half way through my second jar!

I like this product. Very light moisturizer, smells nice.
I was using Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel before - all I can say is that Oligo is dramatically better!
Did not cause any breakouts.

This product, for its price and quality, was subpar. Perhaps this would be a great cream for the summer, but it's not enough for my combination skin in the winter. My cheeks and under-eye areas appear dry and screaming for moisture, I had to apply another moisturizer for my eye areas.
This cream didn't make me break out, but when I applied it for the first time it gave me an unpleasant sting all over. I had switched from an anti-wrinkle cream, also from Vichy, to this.
I would recommend this cream for oily skin for combo-skin in the summer, but I would hesitate to repurchase.

It is good for normal skin, but not for oily one. It has nice texture and it smells very good - refreshing but it makes skin shiny and oily.

this is a very light moisturizer........if you have dehydrated skin that this is probably not what you are looking for.......it does go on very matte and nice.......but you probably need more hydration if you use makeup on top........which is my case........i don't see a point of using this when i still need to add other moisturizer on top............but if you have oily skin this would be a good thing for you.........
