Reviews For Avene XeraCalm AD Lipid-Replenishing Cleansing Oil
Effective in every climate I've lived
I’ve used this as my body wash during many season for the last 15 years. When I’ve changed to a different product my skin hasn’t felt as nourished as with the XeraCalm cleansing oil. I’m completely satisfied with how clean-soft-healthy my skin feels when using it. I confess that I’ve never liked applying body lotions, creams or oils. For me that’s never worked and I always end up sweating & transferring lotions/oils into my clothes. Therefore, many years ago I began searching for a shower cleanser that could deeply hydrate my skin. Initially that’s why I bought it; to skip the moisturizing step after showering. Little did I know that (at least for me) it was going to be effective in all types of climates. It has protected my skin while experiencing harsh below cero winters, during excruciating humid periods, when I was living in a dessert-dry city; literally in every continent that I’ve lived. Sometimes I use it also as a facial wash and I’m also satisfied with its effects because it doesn’t leave my skin oily or “squeaky-clean”, it just has the right balance. It has never clogged my pores and it feels luxurious. A year and a half ago I was diagnosed with cancer, began chemotherapy and immunotherapy simultaneously. The oncologists emphasized that I had to maintain my skin really moisturized to avoid small cuts that could lead to infection. That’s when this cleansing oil was really put to the test. I kept using it and my skin never got cracked or extremely dry, even while being both on chemo and inmmunotherapies. And as you guess it I didn’t use any body moisturizer. The only thing that I did was change the shower filter more often than before the cancer diagnose. This product is not sold where I’m currently living. You have no idea how grateful I am that LovelySkin continues to have it on stock, even during the pandemic, and I was allow to obtain it during the last two years. The fact that it comes in a pump bottle was really relevant in this season of my life because it ensured that I would only touch the amount of oil to be used. Worth every penny!

My favorite!
This is by far the best cleanser I have ever used, my dermatologist recommended it for my skin type. Been using it for over a year now. Very soft cleanser and doesn't dry me out.

Gentle and effective
This is a great gentle cleansing oil that works well for sensitive skin. It's good for removing mascara or double-cleansing. Would recommend!

Gentle cleanser
This cleanser doesn’t strip the skin and is the one I always go back to when my eczema appears. It doesn’t lather very much but has a nice gentle and calming feel. One of the few cleansers with no fragrance or fragrant oils that I have found. The only negative is the price.

Calming and hydrating
I have dermatitis and my dermatologist recommended this cleanser for daily use. My face is always itchy no matter what I do. When I use this cleanser, I instantly feel relief. Even though this product contains oil, my face doesn't feel oily during washing and after rinsing, and I really like that. After using it, my face feels comfortable and cleaned. The product came within 3 days with very good packaging. Will continue buying from LovelySkin.

Acne Rosacea prone skin
This product is a game changer for my rosacea. But I use a follow-up cleanser for my acne as needed.

Great for dehydrated winter skin!
Hello! I love this product! I live up north so the winter indoor heat really does a number on my skin (which tends to be dry even in the summer). My shins are always ashy. This product made a noticeable difference in reducing the ashyness. In fact, I don't get ashy at all anymore. I recommended this to my brother who has eczema, as well.

Great product, great price
I was a little concerned about an oil based cleanser, but especially in winter, my skin is so dry. This turns into a nice lather, cleanses deeply and leaves my face feeling clean, but moisturized. I will buy again!

FIRST TIME USER OF AVENE
I bought this product to use as the first part of my double cleanse. Cleansing with this product was effective in removing sunscreen and makeup (especially eye makeup) and it did not leave any greasy residue. Most important, as I have sensitive skin, I did not experience burning or stinging of my eyes and skin nor did I have any other adverse skin reaction. This product is a great addition to my skincare routine and I would happily purchase this again. Thank you LovelySkin for stocking this amazing product.

Avene XeraCalm AD Lipid-Replenishing Cleansing Oil
I received a free small sized container of this, stuck it in my shower and didn’t use it for a long time. Late last winter my skin was feeling very dry so I thought, “I’ll try this” and I have never looked back. This product is gentle. Nothing I have ever used is this gentle and yet it cleans completely. My skin is so soft after washing my face. As strange as it sounds, my “senior” acne has all but disappeared. I have stopped using my other facial cleansers and use this for my entire body in the shower. I love this stuff!

Best Cleanser for Dry Skin
This has been my go-to cleanser for the past 3 years. I have combination skin, but I chose this cleanser for my dry skin parts because that’s what bothers me the most - and I think it also helps with my oily skin by moisturizing it well (and so it pumps out less oil). Super gentle, lathers well, and great for my sensitive skin.

Great cleansing oil for my body!
I was curious about this item due to all the great reviews. I love it! It cleanses well, rinses without leaving a residue, and my skin is not dry after a shower. No reactions with my sensitive skin to this product.

Love this
So gentle and yet so effective. When my skin flares up this is the only cleanser. I also use it with other cleanse when my skin is not falling up. Love the primrose oil in this product Avene's products and quality is unmatched .

Best moisturizer
I have been using Avene for several years now after my dermatologist suggested it would be good for my sensitive skin. This is the only product that keeps my face soft and does not cause a bad reaction. It’s anti- aging as well. The cream is heavy enough for the dry Winter months and nice in the Summer if you happen to go out in the sun too long. Really moisturizes. I love it.

So gentle yet effective
I can use this to double cleanse and even my waterproof mascara comes off. Usually during the serving cleansing, but I’m amazed it’s able to take off all my makeup with it’s milky texture. I even love to use it for a gentle bath with 5-6 pumps. It stings my eyes a little but not too much.
