Rich yet fluid daily moisture for dry, sensitive skin
XeraCalm Nutrition Moisturising Lotion is Avène's high-tolerance daily lotion for dry and sensitive skin in the whole family, from infants aged one month to adults. It nourishes and hydrates the face and body, helps soothe feelings of tightness and strengthens the skin barrier, leaving the skin soft, comfortable and protected against dryness. The squeeze tube is easy to keep in the bathroom, a gym bag or a travel kit.
Formula and texture
The texture combines the richness of a cream with the fluidity of a milk: it spreads easily, absorbs quickly and is neither greasy nor sticky, so you can get dressed straight after applying. Patented milk thistle oil from Pierre Fabre Research works as an anti-dryness active, Avène Thermal Spring Water soothes and softens, and glycerin with plant-derived emollients supports lasting hydration. Softly and lightly scented, non-comedogenic, with 97% ingredients of natural origin, a biodegradable formula and no ingredients of animal origin. Made in France.
