Avène Vitamin Activ Cg Radiance Intensive Cream

A radiance cream with vitamin C for visible signs of ageing

Vitamin Activ Cg Radiance Intensive Cream is the moisturiser of Avène's Vitamin Activ Cg range, made for adults whose skin looks dull and shows wrinkles and dark spots. It helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles, evens out the complexion and visibly brightens it. The velvety, delicately scented texture comforts the skin and works well as a base for make-up. It comes in a 50ml refillable glass jar and contains 93% ingredients of natural origin, with no ingredients of animal origin.

How the formula works

Three dermatological actives work together: 1.8% Vitamin Cg (ascorbyl glucoside), a highly stable form of vitamin C whose antioxidant action is equivalent to 20% vitamin C in an ex-vivo study of the finished product; 6% niacinamide, which revitalises the skin and reduces the appearance of dark spots; and pure hyaluronic acid of natural origin, which hydrates, visibly smooths and plumps. Shea butter and safflower seed oil add comfort, on a base of Avène Thermal Spring Water. Made in France.
