I Just Want to Help People With Skin Problems!
I so wish I had known about this skincare line a long time ago, but just glad I did find it at all. I have rosacea (including ocular rosacea) diagnosed by a dermatologist. I had been through all the typical stores and websites, trying so many things over the last 15 years. Yes, most were supposed to be for people with skin problems. EVERY SINGLE TIME I tried something, within five minutes, my skin was bright red. My skin reacted to EVERYTHING. I started to believe there was not one single product on the entire planet that my skin would not react to! It was so frustrating. Purchase, fail, repeat. Thing is, I had tried their spring water spray. I sort of ignored all the other products until I was talking to someone randomly and they asked if I had tried Avene. Honestly I decided maybe this was providence and that I had better try it just to be on the safe side. What would life be like if I had ignored their advice and not tried it? If this company ever goes out of business, I will have to live with terrible skin because I already know there is nothing else out there. I had read a review whereby someone said their doctor told them the longer they used the products, the better their skin would get. This is completely true. But even initially, all I cared was that I could relieve the dryness with SOMETHING that did not turn my skin RED IMMEDIATELY! Even THAT, I would have been happy with! Now for the rest of the benefits. I had the good intuition to purchase two of these when they were on sale. I am so glad I did. I use it like crazy every chance I get. It just feels so good going on and I like touching my skin even after the product dissipates. No redness, no irritation, it actually CALMS my skin. And makes it like, well, “real skin.” I’m glad I also got the thicker version in the tube, Cicalfate. This is my go-to for dryer areas and in the winter. The two together along with the water spray, if you like to use something like that, are a great overall program. Definitely other things I would like to try. Again, my goal was to help others who have skin problems because everything else out there has no concept whatsoever of calming the skin, but the exact opposite — irritating it worse (even if those products are supposed to help with redness or irritation). And I felt the company truly deserves a shout-out because they GET IT when it comes to skincare products. Whatever they’ve done, they are experts, far more than all the other skincare lines and I don’t care how long those have been around. If it doesn’t immediately tell you your skin “likes it” and shows it by not reacting or immediately getting better, why on earth would you pay your hard-earned money to buy it and keep using it? It’s worth every penny, don’t bat an eyelash, your skin is worth that and more. If it’s on sale, get a lot of it because trust me, you are going to want and need it. You will be so glad you got more than one. I definitely am! THANK YOU, AVENE, WE LOVE YOU HERE IN AMERICA! YOU UNDERSTAND SKINCARE LIKE NO OTHER COMPANY!Update: Wanted to comment that I’m still so grateful for a product that does FAR MORE than what you expect! I recently bought more. I watch my skin calm down the minute I put it on. I don’t know entirely how the ingredients do what they do, but to the company … please don’t fix what isn’t broken! Too many companies have a good thing and then change it. Please don’t, the products are perfect and far beyond expectation! I also wanted to mention it seems the Tolerance tube will get EVERY LAST BIT out, you won’t be wondering if there is anything left you are discarding. The Cicalfate tube is a bit different, it’s more like a squeeze tube. But I feel I can still get the product out to use it all. That said, you get your money’s worth. I’m also starting to use the Cicalfate on my hands in the winter, too (which are sadly starting to show my age). But this product line has literally CHANGED MY LIFE! BUY IT, it’s the REAL DEAL!

Love this cream
I absolutely love the Avène Tolerance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream — it’s become a sanctuary for my sensitive skin. From the very first application, I noticed how calming and gentle it feels. The texture is rich yet lightweight, absorbing beautifully without any greasiness.This cream has been a game‑changer for days when my skin feels irritated, reactive, or overwhelmed. It instantly soothes redness and discomfort, and over time my skin feels stronger, more balanced, and resilient. What really stands out is how comfortable and nourished my skin feels all day long — no tightness, no irritation, just pure relief.

Great for Sensitive Skin
I have very sensitive skin and have tried everything to try and prevent rosacea flairs. I recently came across this brand and I absolutely love this recover cream. I consider this now the holy Grail for Rosacea and sensitive skin. It makes my skin feel hydrated and non-reactive. It is soothing and I just cannot get enough of it. It is pricy but it is worth it to not have my face constantly feeling like its burning or irritated.

Gentle and effective recovery cream
I’ve been using Avene Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream for a few months now, and I’m genuinely impressed. The texture is rich but not heavy, and it absorbs quickly without leaving my skin greasy. It instantly calms irritation making my skin feel comfortable and hydrated throughout the day. After consistent use, my skin looks healthier, smoother, and more balanced. It’s especially great for sensitive or stressed skin, and a little goes a long way. This has definitely become a staple in my skincare routine, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a gentle yet effective recovery cream.

Great product for sensitive skin
I have sensitive skin that is constantly getting irritated by moisturizers/seemingly simple skin care products. I read a few blogs/articles/reviews on different products others have tried for similar issues and this one came up, so I decided to give it a try. It’s nice and light and goes on smoothly. Skin feels moisturized and does not get irritated, so that’s a win! The only reason I took off 1 star is it leaves my skin a bit oily for my liking, but that could just be my skin.

Must have for rosacea sensitive skin!
I have fair, sensitive skin & since being in peri-menopause I suddenly have rosacea. This cream is SO gentle on the skin but so instantly calming. It hydrates so well & a little goes a long way. I will be buying this over & over from now on!

True Relief
Due to past sun damage, and history with melanoma, I had a chemical peel on my face. I was searching for anything that could soothe my face as the peel started to work. My doctor said to use Vaseline to help with the healing which I did and it helped. However, I need something in the in-between to just soothe my skin and loosen it a little bit as it tightened as it healed. I was hesitant as it was a bit pricey, however, I needed to give something a try.This product was a lifesaver. It not only provided the relief I need, but it also proved to be very beneficial to my skin. There is no irritation, just plain relief when I applied it in the morning in the evening. There was no greasiness and provided relief for a good amount of time after application. Six years old.I highly recommend if you have sensitive skin or have a procedure.

Eczema friendly!
I never leave reviews but I needed to for this product. Last year I was going through TSW on my face due to steroid creams and every single moisturizer I used made my skin burn and flake. This moisturizer topped with their Xeracalm moisturizer helped my skin go back to normal. I have been using it now for over a year and I would buy it again and again no matter the price. Amazing product for eczema prone or sensitive skin!

Noticeable difference in skin immediately! I recently changed diet, so I don’t know if that has anything to do with it, but my skin is very sensitive and I’m careful with soaps and creams and this went on beautifully. Light, moisturising, plain-ish fragrance which is excellent. I’m hoping I’ve found my fave cream for life…

Un gran producto; al principio estaba escéptica pero en la primera puesta no sentí nada, lo cual me alegró muchísimo. Mi piel es muy reactiva, para mi no sentir nada es la mejor sensación del mundo. Hidrata muy bien, utilizó pequeñas cantidades por la mañana y por la noche.
