Vichy Liftactiv Specialist Glyco-C Night Peel Ampoules 30 × 2ml is a clinical-grade night-peel treatment from the celebrated French dermatological skincare brand Vichy. Each ampoule delivers a measured, hygienic dose of a minimalist 11-ingredient formula — combining a 10% Glycolic Acid Complex (with citric acid and HEPES) with hyaluronic acid, vitamin C and Vichy Thermal Spring Water — to gently resurface, brighten and smooth the skin overnight.
About Vichy
Vichy Laboratoires is a French dermatological skincare brand established in 1931, owned by L'Oréal and renowned for its formulations enriched with the mineral-rich Vichy Thermal Spa Water from the Auvergne region. The Liftactiv Specialist range is the brand's flagship anti-ageing line, and the Glyco-C ampoules are its at-home peel treatment — designed to deliver clinical-style resurfacing benefits safely and effectively.
Key actives
- 10% Glycolic Acid Complex: 4% glycolic acid + 1% citric acid + 5% HEPES — works together to gently resurface the skin and smooth the look of fine lines, dullness and uneven tone.
- Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid): draws and binds moisture for plumper, hydrated skin — counterbalancing the exfoliating action.
- Ascorbyl Glucoside (Vitamin C derivative): brightens and supports a more even-toned complexion.
- Vichy Thermal Spa Water: the brand's signature mineral-rich water that softens the skin and supports tolerance.
- Glycerin and Propanediol: humectants that deliver immediate hydration.
- Just 11 ingredients in total: a minimalist formulation designed for higher skin tolerability.
Key benefits
- Visibly resurfaces the skin overnight — smoother, brighter, more even-toned.
- Reduces the look of dullness, fine lines and uneven tone.
- Hyaluronic acid keeps the skin hydrated and comfortable through the peel.
- Single-use ampoules — hygienic, no oxidation, and a measured dose every time.
- 30-ampoule pack — a complete one-month treatment course.
- Vichy Thermal Water supports skin tolerance throughout the treatment.
Who it's for
The Vichy Glyco-C Night Peel Ampoules are for adults who want a measured, controlled at-home peel treatment — particularly those concerned about dullness, uneven texture, fine lines and pigmentation. The single-dose format and Vichy's reputation for sensitive-skin-friendly formulations make this a sensible starting point for anyone new to chemical exfoliation, as well as for experienced acid users who want a stable, controlled dose.
How to use
- In the evening, after cleansing and toning the face.
- Twist the top off the ampoule (always read the included instructions).
- Dispense the contents onto the fingertips.
- Apply across the face and neck in upward, outward strokes — avoiding the eye area, lips and any broken or irritated skin.
- Allow to absorb fully before applying your usual night cream.
- When first using, start with 2–3 applications per week and build up to nightly as the skin adapts.
- Always wear a broad-spectrum SPF in the daytime — chemical exfoliants increase sun sensitivity.
- Do not use during pregnancy without consulting a healthcare provider.
