If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it
This used to be my holy grail cleanser. Creamy but lightweight and with a pleasant herbal scent, it did a great job of cleansing my skin without stripping it. My dermatologist first recommended it to me & I happily used it for a decade. And then, for some unknown reason, Avene decided perfection wasn’t good enough. They tinkered with not just the packaging but the formula, touting it as “new & improved”. But what they really did was ruin one of their best products. The heavily chemical smell would be almost tolerable if the texture wasn’t greasy, cloying, & hard to rinse off. But once you DO manage to get it off your face, you find that it’s taken all traces of moisture with it. I used it for a week & my skin aged a decade. I cannot express how disappointed I am & I’ve already begun buying their competitors’ products instead. Avene, you really screwed the pooch on this one.

Calming and soothing
My reviews are usually 5 stars as before I buy a product, I read people's reviews and try to find the best products. So I believe reviews are very helpful. AVENE is a very soothing and hydrating and moisturizing cleanser. No harsh ingredients. It's very important to read ingredients

Not cleaning my face
It just like putting cream on my skin, no cleaning effect

Excellent
The first cleanser that helps with acne that doesn’t dry me out! I have maturing, sensitive, dry yet acne prone skin. Yay for me! Haha. Love this way more than anything foaming or oily

Not my favorite Avene product
It was an okay cleanser. It’s not something I would purchase again.

One of my favorites
Very gentle, very mild typical avene scent, calms my breakouts and flare ups almost immediately. I have acne prone, oily skin, and sensitive because of retin-a use. This is one of my favorite face washes.

Very gentle
I purchase this because of the super "hydra." Winter is coming and deserter type of weather dry up skin fast. I have normal to sensitive type of skin so I decide to buy it and give it a try. Love it <3. This brand is very gentle for my skin and the price on LovelySkin is super lovely <3

Love this!
Currently using tretinoin and needed a gentle non drying cleanser. This is perfect ! It cleanses well and my skin never feels dry or stripped. Also, it doesn't irritate my eyes. Will definitely repurchase!

Loving Avene products
I just recently tried the Avene Skin Recovery Cream and loved it so much that I thought I'd give one of their cleansers a try. My skin has become quite dry and sensitive due to prescription Vitamin A foam. Normally, though, I am quite oily and blemish prone. The description of this product seemed right up my alley - skin that has been dried by prescription acne treatments. So far, so good. My skin feels clean but not tight and dry after I use this. I am using this product at night before I apply my prescription Vitamin A and I am waking up in the morning with less dry and irritated skin. I really enjoy using this product and highly recommend if you are trying to adjust to a prescription acne product.

My go to face wash
I have been using this face wash for years. It works great year-round as an everyday cleanser. No scent, and lasts a while.

Such a nice cleanser.
Problem skin and this is a gentle cleanser. Found it to be gentle, non drying, yet effective. The Avene line does not cause me to break out, and I have very, very sensitive skin.

Avene cleanser
I really like this product. Originally recommended by my dermatologist. Excellent cleanser without skin feeling too dry after use. My grandson has mild acne and now uses this as well and feels like it has helped his skin.

Dermatologist recommended
I used this years ago as recommended by my dermatologist. I forgot about it until recently. I am having a breakout of acne due to being postpartum. I know this will work to calm my ance. It’s very gentle and great for sensitive skin!

The only face wash I will use!
A dermatologist got me hooked on this over 5 years ago, and I won't use anything else. You only need a small amount, and it has a light, clean scent. I have acne prone skin. You would think you should use something harsher, but I've learned you actually need to be more gentle. This is a great cleanser, and as always, LovelySkin has the best price and samples!

Avene Clean-AC Cleansing Cream
This Cleansing cream Rocks! It leaves your skin soft but not too dry. It helps balance combo skin and will help all kinds of dry skin, as well. I would absolutely order this product again. I find the entire Avene line to have saved my life. I had 0 problems with my skin until recently and had tried Cleanser after Soap. You only need a drop for your entire face to become clean. I swear that Avene is the one product that does it all. It is so gentle on especially your face, that I will never use another brand again. I am not just saying this, I mean it! I first found Avene in my skin Dr.'s office, and then saw a review of it on YouTube and had remembered that I purchased a product...I immediately re-ordered almost the entire line from this site! My skin is calmed-down, less red and feeling happy these days! Thank you Avene!
