A preservative-free balm that soothes the feeling of discomfort on very dry skin
Avène XeraCalm A.D Lipid-Replenishing Balm is a rich balm for very dry, sensitive skin that goes through uncomfortable, tight-feeling phases, suitable for infants, children and adults. Its I-Modulia postbiotic acts on the skin surface to soothe the feeling of discomfort and help keep dry, uncomfortable phases at bay. The LIPID:B2 complex of essential fatty acids replenishes lost lipids and strengthens the skin barrier, and Avène Thermal Spring Water adds a soothing touch. The sterile pump keeps the formula free of preservatives.
The texture
A rich but fresh balm that spreads easily over large areas and absorbs without a sticky film. It is richer than the XeraCalm cream, so it suits the driest skin and the winter months.
Who it suits
- Very dry skin with a feeling of discomfort and tightness
- Very dry, sensitive skin between uncomfortable phases
- Babies, children and adults, face and body
- Skin that reacts to fragrance
Worth knowing before you buy: This is the richer texture of the range; for a lighter feel on the face or in summer, the XeraCalm A.D cream is the better match. It contains mineral oil.
How long one bottle lasts
Used once a day on a child's whole body, the 200ml pump lasts about four to five weeks; on an adult's body, around three weeks.
