Love this moisturizer!
I like to have a moisturizer without any irritating actives in it so I can use it with anything. And the Skin Recovery Balm is my favorite! I have dry skin and this makes my skin sooo soft. It locks in moisture and feels very soothing. Never ever ever discontinue this Avene! I buy it whenever I find it on sale so that I never run out. There is also a crème version which is not as thick if you prefer a lighter moisturizer.

It's the Bomb!
I just ordered this Balm recently. I have been using the Skin Recovery Cream as my moisturizer. While the cream is great, I think the balm is thicker and more luxurious. I wish I would have bought it for the winter months. Sometimes when my skin feels extremely dry, I use the cream under the balm. I have no pilling after adding SPF and foundation. I have mild rosacea and this product didn't bother my skin. I will be buying it again.

Best Skin Barrier Savior
I’ve been using this Balm by Avene for years… it is The only thing that saves my skin from drying out in the winter months!!! Soooo NOURISHING. It’s not like a traditional balm it’s more of an intense, rich emollient cream. It’s also not too heavy to wear during the day, but very hydrating! Also, unscented which is a PLUS for my sensitive skin.

It’s super soothing and nourishing
What a wonderful product!! In perimenopause, my skin has become very sensitive and difficult to moisturize — even products containing niacinamide that are supposed to be soothing, irritate me! I was concerned that this product would be too heavy, but it’s just perfect and, especially in the summer, wonderful for day mixed with my SPF, night, after sun, all of the above. I’m hooked!

Irritates
This cream has true balmy texture but my skin absorbes it nicely. On the bad side it gives me headache and irritates the skin where I damaged the skin barrier. Overall, I really disappointed with the whole new Tolerance line from Avene which should be helping to restore the damaged skin but instead makes it even worse.

Good moisturizer
This balm moisturizer is a replacement for a discontinued cream, which I loved. This moisturizer seems to be working as well as the discontinued cream. I only gave it 4 stars because the pump delivery system has stopped working and I am only half way through the product.

Better than expected!
I used to use the avene tolerance extreme cream, but it was discontinued, so I switched to this. I like this so much better!! It’s much more hydrating, but absorbs so much faster. Layers well over products and under sunscreen/makeup. My new favorite!

Where have you been all my life?
My skin was feeling super dry, sensitive and burning from very good products that I used. I tried this to get some relief. It is perfect and sold me on the Avene brand. Hydrating and so soothing for sensitive skin. Onto their eye cream next!

Superb Skin Cream!
This is my second time buying this product because I am obsessed! I have really sensitive skin, and after doing lots of research I decided to give this cream a try. It did not disappoint! It is light, yet very moisturizing and did not cause pain or redness. This cream feels so good going on, it really relives dryness without feeling greasy. I wear it everyday and feel so happy to have found this product!

Inflamed my skin overnight
Unfortunately, this didn't work for me. I have very sensitive rosacea skin and wanted to try a gentler option from the heavier moisturizer I normally used. I applied this only once the night it arrived and everything felt - and looked - fine. The next morning I awoke to inflamed cheeks. Some of the balm got onto my neck and even that area was red and irritated. What a shame it took such a painful experience to learn a moisturizer wasn't right for me.

Great for sensitive dry skin
I love this balm! Really good non-irritating moisturizer for my dry, eczema-prone skin. I only wish it came in a larger packaging.

Excellent!
Received a sample from LovelySkin for the cream and loved it. But for drier skin types, the balm with the addition of shea butter is even better. I have expensive moisturizers that don't work as well as this! Minimalist formula that does what it says. Speedy delivery as well. LOVE this website!

I use this as my eye cream
While I have quite oily skin, the area around my eyes can become quite irritated and flakey. I have been looking for an eye cream that could help alleviate this problem, but nothing ever seemed to work. I have recently discovered Avene skincare products and I am really liking them. I decided to order this balm to use around my eyes at night and it worked! I had a flakey patch of skin on one of my eyelids and this has really helped that issue. If you have easily irritated, dry skin, I would highly recommend this product.
