It effectively restores the protective skin barrier, with lasting effects. HIGH TOLERANCE. Thanks to its composition containing a minimum of ingredients, selected from among the purest and gentlest. SOOTHING. Parcerine combined with the soothing and anti-irritating Avène Thermal Spring Water softens your skin while reducing skin reactivity, thus eliminating all sensations of tightness.

I bought this in the regular and rich versions. They are both nice basic creams with short ingredient lists for people with intolerant skin. I do think $35 dollar for less than 2 ounces of cream is...

This cream now comes in a different tube, with a flat lid and cap. When squeezed, a central ring in the cap lifts up and dispenses the cream. When you let go, the ring goes back to being flush with...

Best cream if you have acne prone skin, it is very gentle and very moisturising without the heavy feeling of a cream and absorbs fairly quickly. 10/10 would buy again.
