Avène Hydrance Aqua-Gel

Smart, all-season hydration in an ultra-fresh gel-cream

Hydrance Aqua-Gel Hydrating Aqua Cream-in-Gel is Avène's all-in-one moisturiser for sensitive, dehydrated skin of every type, even the driest, in all seasons. One compact 50ml jar does four jobs: day cream, night cream, hydrating mask and eye-contour care. The ultra-fresh gel texture melts in instantly without feeling heavy or greasy, and its fast absorption makes it a good base for make-up. It is dermatologically tested, suitable for pregnant women and young mothers, and made in France.

Smart hydration technology

Developed by Avène Dermatological Laboratories, smart hydration adjusts to the skin's needs: key hydrating ingredients — hyaluronic acid and aloe vera polysaccharides — are encapsulated and released progressively into the upper layers of the epidermis. Hyaluronic acid mono-oligomers absorb quickly and support the skin's own hyaluronic acid synthesis (in-vitro test), while Avène Thermal Spring Water soothes and softens. The result is skin that stays hydrated for up to 72 hours, looks fresher and more luminous, and feels comfortable. The formula contains 94% ingredients of natural origin and is lightly scented.
