It’s rare to find a skincare product that can be used day, night, as a mask and as an eye cream. And for that one formula to suit every skin type, from normal to dehydrated skin – until you’ve tried Avène’s Aqua-Gel moisturiser, that is.
It enriches skin with one easily-absorbed layer – and now, it’s been upgraded with a new formula that’s supercharged with actives to offer everything from hydration to protection, radiance to plumpness.
The moisturiser is powered by Avène Dermatological Laboratories’ intelligent hydration technology, which is a blend of ingredients that are designed to provide your skin with hydration exactly where it needs it. There is also the added bonus of coherderm, the brand’s patented hydrating complex, which creates micro-reservoirs of water that the skin can draw from on demand, as well as the signature Avene thermal water, which soothes, repairs and rebalances. To round it off, Provitamin E protects, while myrtle extract brightens.
And it just feels effective. It’s a lightweight cream-in-gel texture which is drunk up instantaneously by parched skin to reveal a refreshed complexion. Skin feels bright, plump and glowy, which is why it’s the perfect moisturiser to use before applying make-up. And after four weeks, you'll notice an improved healthy glow overall.
It feels effective because it is effective. During a consumer test on 90 individuals aged 18 to 60 years old, it was clinically proven to provide 24 hours of hydration, while 97 per cent felt a fresh texture and 91 per cent saw improved suppleness.
A great addition to any skincare routine, especially during winter.
