Avene: Skin Recovery Moisturizer

11 June 2009 Tags: , , , One Comment

I know my last review was also an Avene product but they are a good brand for sensitive skin which deserves mention.
Avenes Skin recovery moisturizer is great but on the pricey side. I would love to be able to use this every day but it would get too expensive. If I do use it, it is for when my skin really needs it.
The light texture is wonderful. The cream absorbs into the skin almost instantly leaving it full of moisture and soothed. The only problem I have with it is that I tend to use quite a bit of it, so in terms of mileage this isn’t the best product out there. Keeping that in mind it is great for occasional use. It works quickly to sooth irritated skin and really does help keep it moisturized and protected while it heals. I would recommend this to any one with particularly sensitive skin, but also if you have normal skin that needs a little bit of nurturing.

    This is my all-time-fave Avene cream.
    Though I disagree i think this is ok value but I don’t think I use as much as you do. Its a light cream but I use it very sparingly only on irritated skin areas.
