When it comes to what I put on my skin, I am incredibly picky. My skin is sensitive, and trying out new products really isn’t something I do often because I worry how it’ll affect my skin.
 
Many times I have tried new skin masques out and been left with terribly dry, red, and irritated skin.
 
 
So when I was recently sent a few items from Avène, I was initially quite hesitant to give it a whirl. But, after a few days of battling intensely dry skin, I decided to give Avène’s skincare a try and all I can say is that it is simply amazing.
 

Avène Skincare Review

SOOTHING MOISTURE MASQUE:

I started with the Soothing Moisture Masque which is described by Avène as a “creamy, non-setting skincare masque which provides soothing care to dehydrated, overstressed skin”.

I left this masque on for about 10 minutes, and then blotted it off with a cotton swab. As soon as I tried this masque I found my skin felt smoother, softer, and that all my dry spots were gone.

What I really loved about this masque was the fact that it didn’t make my skin feel tacky or oily, which is a problem I’ve found with many other hydrating masques. Instead, it slowly absorbed into my skin and left it feeling hydrated and smooth.

THERMAL SPRING WATER SPRAY:

I followed up my masque with the Thermal Spring Water spray. I always love hydrating sprays for my face, that blast of hydration is not only so great for your skin – it also feels so refreshing.

HYDRANCE OPTIMALE HYDRATING SERUM:

Though I’d usually use this serum before bed so that it could have all night to really absorb in; I decided to try it out after using the Thermal Spring Water Spray to get the full effect of how all the Avène products work together. Out of al the products, this one had to be my favourite. I loved how light this applied, and how hydrated it made my skin feel; best of all, once the serum absorbed in I found that it had made my skin look incredibly smooth.

XERACALM A.D. LIPID REPLENISHING CREAM:

The lotion says it can be used on your face and body, but whenever anything says “face and body” I typically just use it on my body because I typically find body-care too heavy for my face. I have to say though, as a body lotion this is simply wonderful. My skin has been exceptionally dry this winter, and this lotion fixed that pretty much instantly!

[AD] It drives me a bit crazy when I see littered [AD] It drives me a bit crazy when I see littered single-use items, like water bottles, on hiking trails. Single-use items are used for a short time, but they have a lasting impact on our environment. I believe nature is sacred and we need to cherish it, support it, and respect it. That’s why when I go on a hike I always make sure to bring my reusable water bottle.

Carrying a reusable water bottle is a simple Superhabit that you can implement anywhere you go! So this summer stay hydrated and stay environmentally responsible with a reusable water bottle! #WhatsYourSuperhabit
