It is an effective and natural alternative to retinol as an anti-aging ingredient without usual retinol therapy‐associated undesirable effects.

NEW AND UNIMPROVED- FORMULA TOTALLY DIFFERENT NOW
TOTALLY DIFFERENT PRODUCT THAN IT USED TO BE. This has been my favorite facial product for over 5 years- it was silky and felt so good. I am SO SAD they decided to “improve” the formula! Why add a fragrance? It was perfect and mild before and now it smells chemically to me. But the worst thing is that it stung my face when I put it on! It used to be the best product for my sensitive skin, but it is no longer sensitive skin friendly. And worst of all the texture is all wrong- it’s sticky, not silky and light. PLEASE BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL FORMULA!!! I had to cancel my subscription until then:(

Will never be without
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this cream! I love how lightweight this feels its not sticky or greasy but my skin drinks this up and feels so hydrated and nourished after using this. Smells really nice and has a lot of really nice gentle ingredients that my skin seems to love.

Super product for hydration
As someone with “mature” skin, I struggle with dryness. This product leaves my skin feeling soft and refreshed. I use it in the evening with an Avene serum in the AM. It does have a slight fragrance but I don’t mind that for evening.

Not what it used to be
I don’t like the new formula and fragrance. I’m sad because it was the only gel/cream that wasn’t sticky or greasy on my face.

Allergic Reaction!!
The very strong fragrance gave me an itchy allergic reaction, which has never happened to me before. Otherwise a nice product so it’s a shame that they couldn’t formulate it without the fragrance.

Too perfumed
Love the formula but fragrance is too STRONG. Overwhelming!! It lingers too. I’m not sensitive to fragrance but even for me, it’s too much. Avene needs to make this product in scent free version. Wanted to love but couldn’t :(

Refreshing
Great gel to provide hydration. Lightweight, not sticky and absorbs well into skin. On hot summer nights I just apply the Aqua-Gel, when I need an additional boost, I will use the Aqua-Gel then apply moisturizer. I have normal to dry skin, 46 years old.
