Tip: Pick one Vichy line for your main concern and add one product at a time, giving each 2-3 weeks. Use vitamin C in the morning, retinol or night creams in the evening, and sunscreen every morning. Patch-test first if your skin is sensitive. For scalp concerns, check the product label and ask a doctor if the problem persists. Want to compare? See the COSRX guide or the Anua guide.
