A light rich cream that soothes the feeling of discomfort on dry skin
Avène XeraCalm A.D Lipid-Replenishing Cream is a moisturising cream for dry to very dry, sensitive skin that goes through uncomfortable, tight-feeling phases, suitable for babies from birth, children and adults. Its I-Modulia postbiotic, derived from Aquaphilus dolomiae, soothes the feeling of discomfort and helps keep dry, uncomfortable phases at bay, while evening primrose oil and a Cer-Omega complex replenish the lipids the skin barrier is missing. Avène Thermal Spring Water soothes, and the sterile pump keeps the formula free of preservatives.
The texture
A light, fresh cream that spreads easily over face and body and absorbs quickly. It is lighter than the XeraCalm balm, so it suits dry rather than very dry skin, and warmer months.
Who it suits
- Dry to very dry skin with a feeling of discomfort
- Very dry, sensitive skin between uncomfortable phases
- Babies, children and adults, face and body
- Skin that reacts to fragrance
Worth knowing before you buy: The cream contains mineral oil. For very dry skin or cold weather, the richer XeraCalm A.D balm may be more comfortable.
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.
