Minéral 89 Hydrating and Plumping Daily Booster Serum
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
Vichy Minéral 89 is a lightweight, hydrating serum that feels like water on the skin, with a simple formula of thermal spring water, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin. Doctorly (board-certified dermatologist) calls it a reliable staple, while James Welsh notes it's basic in a nice way but questions the clinical backing of its barrier and antioxidant claims. It's a good basic hydrator, not a treatment serum.
