    Cream

    The Avene Tolerance Cream is a nice additon to my skincare. I have hypersensitive skin and this cream doesn't cause me any problems. It isn't too thick and absorbs very quickly. I like that it has no fragrance.

    Perfect

    Love this cream. It’s my every day moisturizer. It’s rich, it absorbs nicely, non-greasy, unscented. My skin is extremely sensitive, and reactive, and this moisturizer is soothing and gentle.

    Big fan!

    I have been dealing with irritated skin and inflammation on my face for years. After initial treatment my dermatologist gave me this cream to not refrigerate my perioral dermatitis. I like it a lot, it is very moisturizing, has a nice texture, and it doesn’t irritate my skin at all.

    the only moisturizer I use!

    The quality, the consistency of cream, feels amazing on my skin and layers so well with my sunscreen. I started using Avene when I was acne prone, and then recovering from Accutane. I've had super oily skin, to dry during Accutane, to oily/combination currently. I have continued to use it now that my skin is repaired and healed, and I truly believe its largely in part from the ingredients in this cream! It's smooth and light. It absorbs well into the skin, but not too fast to where it doesn't feel like you applied any lotion. Does not leave a "tacky" feel like a lot of other creams do. You can even use it as a makeup primer if needed. It's my favorite. Highly recommend and have been a long time customer!

    My skin (and i) arw so happy I found this!

    During a recent cold snap and snow my face became so dry my normal “go to” was actually burning my face and leaving my skin peeling. (When kiehls is doing this is all hope lost??!!). I went and spent about an hour reading labels and left with this. Oh. My. Goodness!!!! It helped so much! It didn’t burn at all. Not only did it not hurt it was actually soothing. So glad I found it. My skin is grateful!

    Broke me out like crazy

    Recommended this for sensitive skin. Broke me out within the first three days. I kept using the product to see if my skin just needed to acclimate, but it got worse and worse. Happy it works for some people, just a no-go for me.

    lightweight and 100% fragrance free

    I started using this cream while using Fluorouracil (a chemo cream from my dermatologist). I have super sensitive skin, rosacea, and hypersensitivity to smells. I needed a cream that would be ultra gentle and fragrance free. This cream is nothing short of a miracle. There is no smell and I experienced no irritation from it. It is more like a lotion, but is very moisturizing, dries quickly, and no greasy feel. I continue to use it daily, even after the chemo cream treatment, because I enjoy it so much. I highly recommend it for anyone that is looking for a lightweight, 100% fragrance free moisturizer.

    Avéne Tolerance is amazing

    My dermatologist recommended Avéne Tolerance for some issues I was having. It worked so well that I’ve continued to use it. I love how it feels on my skin. It’s a fantastic product.
