The Laboratoires Dermatologiques Avene deal with sensitive, allergic and hypersensitive skins. Recommended by dermatologists worldwide, all Avene products are classified as dermo-cosmetics, which follow strict guidelines including a medical approach to skincare, and efficacy proven through clinical studies.

Sensitive skin needs daily, essential care to minimize occasional irritation and help restore the skin’s natural balance. Eau Thermale Avene’s essential care offers daily solutions that are formulated with Avene Thermal Spring water to soote and soften as well as rigorously tested raw materials which have been tolerance tested to provide a complete skin care program to help ease the signs and symptoms of sensitivity.

Today we wished to talk about the Cream SPF 30. There are really good things about this foundation, not least the fact that it contains SPF 30. The compact format also means it’s really easy to reapply to top up the sun protection factor and keep your flawless complexion throughout the day.

We love love the compact, it isn’t pretty but it’s just functional and very well thought out. This product is waterproof, so if you’ve got something you want covered, it stays covered, come sweat, rain or a dip in a swimming pool. You have to apply the makeup by patting it on, using a sponge. We would describe the coverage as medium.

When We first tried it it showed up some flaking skin on my forehead but the flakes seem to have almost gone with regular use. This makeup did not cause any breakouts, and We don’t find it irritating or itch-inducing. Although it wears reasonably well you may require a touch-up with it later in the day or evening (easily done since it’s in a compact with).
