    I've been using Avene products for a couple of years, but I tried this cream only recently. It is a wonderful cream for dry skin. I doubt it would work on any other skin types besides dry - this is...

    Dead of winter, skin dry, trying anything. I had a sample and gave it a whirl. This is strictly a moisturizer. It goes on nicely, no real scent apparent to me, sinks in quickly. The makeup goes on...

    I wasn't too sure about this one. Having tried the Hydrance Optimale Riche cream beforehand, there was nothing that this cream did that the HOR didn't, so I wouldn't recommend it over that, not...

    Similar story to the Avène purifying scrub which I also reviewed. It's not unpleasant to use and didn't do any actual damage, but didn't do any good to speak of either. I don't think this cream was...

    I have three complants about this moisturizer. It is too highly fragranced, and I don't like the smell at all. I don't like the jar, I prefer moisturizers in a tube, more sanitary. And most of...

    I found this very heavy and perhaps a bit too intensive for my skin at the moment. Pros: - heavy moisturizer, good as a night cream Cons: - didn't absorb easily on me - blocked pores -...

    This is very odd for an avene moisturiser. For a start it comes in a very heavy glass jar instead of the usual tubes and pumps that avene use. It's also quite perfumed which I didn't like...

    I like this moisturizer very much. In germany you pay about 22€ for it. I dont like the tube cause it not so hygenic but its ok. The cream moisturizes very nice, but its not oily or clogging pores...

    This is a so-so product. I was used on the last winter. It's quite moisture but a little bit oily. Occasionally, I got a pimples.

    this is a basic cream for the face. Good as makeup base. Not oily. I use it on my combination skin. it has a lot of perfume but doesn't irritate my very sensitive skin.
