Most Helpful Positive Review The best!! This stuff is great! I have normal acne prone skin and I swear this stuff has had a part in clearing up my acne. It's light, refreshing, and leaves my skin glowing! Works great under sunscreen and tinted moisturizer and has smoothed my skin. Seriously, my skin is SO SMOOTH and soft after using this consistently for about two weeks. A little goes a long way! I'm not sure why so many people have complained about the smell, I have a pretty good nose and it almost smells like nothing to me. If anything, if you're concerned about the smell, buy it anyways! You won't regret it!
Most Helpful Critical Review Isn’t suited for my skin I really wanted to love this Avène product especially since I’ve enjoyed past purchases from them. I didn’t realize this product was made to create a dewy effect, which I do not like. But, instead of a dewy, fresh-out-of-the-shower look, my skin just looked extremely greasy. I used this product for two weeks, twice a day, and I just had to return it. It does smell nice and feels luxurious but I just don’t think it worked well with my skin. Also, I’m not sure why Avène put this in a jar, it seems strange since most of their products are in 100% sterile packaging.

I was having a bad roseaca flare. I bought a few different brands of moisturizers to try. I tried this one first and haven't even bothered with the others. This has cleared all the redness and inflammation. Makes my skin feel so soft, plump, and hydrated.
Great Product 5
Femmefatale from Savannah, GA
I use this product after I have washed my face. Then I apply the Avene Hydrating moisture cream, then my foundation. No break outs, and my skin is looking so much better and hydrated. I'm over 65 so I need all the help that I can get, and Avene products seem to be my holy grail. I have been using this combo for about a month and I LOVE IT!

Not for me 2
H from KY
I've used this brand in the past and have loved the products. I had high expectations but was disappointed when using this. It pilled like crazy—no matter how long I let it sit on the skin. Even after an hour I still couldn't apply any products. Made me feel the product was not absorbing into the skin.
Light Moisture 4
Mari from Berkshires, Massachusetts
When I first bought it I was so in love with it but now that I'm at the end, it's just okay. It's certainly gentle and doesn't seem to clog pores, but it doesn't absorb very quickly and also isn't moisturizing enough on its own without a more emollient lotion on top to seal it in. So I won't be repurchasing.
I would love it without the fragrance 3
Kristie from Pa
Love the texture and how light and airy. I just can't get past the old lady perfume scent. With they made it fragrance free. A lot of people are trying to stay away from fragrance
Best for oily skin 5
gjg from OH
I have oily skin and literally has been the best moisturizer I have ever used. Bought a second one and I never go through a product. It has a water type feel that gives a refreshed look to you face. Has not broke me out and does not feel heavy and absorbes quickly.
For all of my sensitive skin people 5
JustMe from PA
I was a faithful Clarins Double Serum gal, worked wonders for my sensitive aging skin until they unfortunately added turmeric to their formula which caused a hot mess:-(. I've tried the cheapest to the most expensive lines to no avail. Avene is my new holy grail:-)
Great lotion for combination skin!! 4
Cat A. from Fort Worth
I was looking for a hydrating lotion that didn't irritate my sensitive skin and found this!! It really is one of the best options I have found for my skin type. Only giving 4 instead of 5 because 1) there is a slight fragrance to it and 2) it can slightly irritate acne if it's an open wound. Other than these 2 somewhat minor issues, it's awesome!!
Received a sample 4
Ariyuana from Kennewick
I received a sample of this product and it worked well on my skin making it tight, supple, and glowy. I knocked off a star because I don't believe facial products should have "fragrance" as an ingredient. There is absolutely no purpose for it other than a pleasant scent and possible skin irritation. I'm deciding to buy this regardless because it worked well for me the first time and I need to develop a skin-care routine.
Love it! 5
MamaGK from Minneapolis, MN
This product works beautifully for all areas of skin not just a face. It's hydrating and you can tell that the elasticity and plumpness returns to the skin.
Meh 2
Jenn from Madison Wisconsin
Very silicone-y feeling. Pretty good for under makeup but didn't help my dry skin much. Didn't love the fragrance either. Pass for me.

Wonderful Face Moisturizer 5
April N. from USA
I’ve been using this for about 3 weeks & so far it’s been wonderful. Leaves my skin feeling so soft & silky. Not heavy at all and absorbs fast. Plus smells so good. It hasn’t bothered my eczema at all, which I was concerned about. In fact, it seems to be helping especially with itchiness I typically get around my nose.
Love this product! 5
Briana K. from USA
This is my winter savior! I put the gel on before bed and wake up with flawless, moisturized skin. It doesn’t feel goopy or oily. It’s lightweight and is the perfect day or night product.

Very light feeling but extremely moisturizing! I usually use Another Avenue Moisturizer but totally happy with this one!
Subtle hydration 3
Roya A. from USA
I like this. I have oily skin. I bought it because I felt my face was dehydrated. I don't necessarily think it is good for anti-aging, but if you don't sleep a lot/are tired, this can rehydrate your face.
Really good!!! I sincerely recommend 5
