Avene At Its Best!

Has your skin been super sensitive recently? Me too. I never was one to under go a break out syndrome, even in my teens break outs were no where to be seen. And as soon as I hit the twenty mark it all started to happen the invasion of pesky little spots that come and go more or less in the same area leaving marks upon healing. I wanted to start using a cleanser and moisturiser from the same brand so that they could provide the maximum results together. The French brand Avene was my first pick, mainly because I could relate to the products instantly whilst reading up on them.
 
Cleanance Gel:
 
The Cleanance Gel is a soapless cleanser aimed at oily, blemish- prone skin types. My skin isn't really among the oily types its a little more on the dry to combination side. I found the gel to be really gentle on my skin without drying it out. I do a double cleanse just to make sure there is no makeup left behind. It does have the tendency to irritate the eyes, so I would highly recommend using an eye makeup remover before hand. (Available at Boots 200ml £11.00)
 
Skin Recovery Cream:
 
Star product right here! I cannot begin to explain how soothing and anti- inflammatory this cream is. It has no scent and the texture is pretty lightweight but it still moisturises wonderfully. Although the Skin Recovery cream is designed for sensitive and irritated skin I would put it down as being one for all skin types. If your looking for a cream to comfort you skin check this out! (Available at Boots 40ml £13.00)
 
Thermal Spring Water:
 
I was putting off buying Avenes Thermal Spring Water for a while. Only because I thought water in a spray can thing? That couldn't make much of a difference. And whilst it doesn't make a huge amount of difference it does help with calming down those spots and the redness. Just a fine mist adds the most satisfying cooling effect. I like to use it as a toner and sometimes just spraying it on top of my makeup at arms length helps to give that plump, healthy skin look. (Available at Boots 150ml £7.00)
