A light repairing emulsion for skin after lasers, peels and tattoos
Avène Cicalfate+ Moisturizing Repairing Care Emulsion is a hydrating repair emulsion for skin that has been through superficial dermatological procedures or a new tattoo. After lasers or peels, skin often feels tight, red and hot. The formula answers this with three ingredients: the C+-Restore postbiotic, derived from a bacterium found in Avène Thermal Spring Water, supports skin repair; a copper-zinc complex helps limit bacterial growth; and Avène Thermal Spring Water soothes. Avène reports faster repair and visibly less discomfort within 48 hours.
The texture
A light, non-greasy fluid that spreads easily on sore skin and gives an immediate cooling feel.
Who it suits
- Skin after laser, peels or other superficial procedures
- New tattoos while they heal
- Tight, red or hot-feeling skin
- Sensitive skin
Worth knowing before you buy: It is made for the days right after a procedure, not as an everyday moisturizer. For cracked or chafed skin, the Cicalfate+ Repairing Protective Cream is the better choice.
How long one tube lasts
Used twice a day on a small treated area or a tattoo, 40ml usually lasts about three to four weeks.
