VICHY DERMA BLEND



Today I been on a make up event at Vichy and La Roche-Posay. What really stood out from the event was the new sticks Derma Blend from Vichy, a camouflage range for severe skin flaws like acne, burns, rosacea, scars, visible veins and pigmentary disorders. Since many people ask me mostly about products to cover pigmentation I wanted to share this product with you. Its formulated with 40 % pigment, twice the coverage of an ordinary foundation. It has a SPF 30, water resistant, fragrance free and comes in 7 shades. It comes as a foundation cream stick and as a foundation. I prefer the stick to the foundation, felt lighter and easier to blend.
