Reviews For Avene XeraCalm AD Lipid-Replenishing Cleansing Oil
Seasons
I really like this product. However, I feel it's better for me in the summertime. It feels like an oil but performs like a gel with mild surfactants that produce a low foaming action.

Would recommend with one caveat
My brother (who is just as skincare obsessed as I am) recommended this cleanser after one of his favorite skincare YouTube gurus posted about it. I was skeptical at first but turned out to be pleasantly surprised! This oil to foam cleanser left my skin feeling hydrated and plump, and the lather didn’t seem to strip moisture at all. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because it’s not the best at removing makeup, unlike many of the oil cleansers I’ve used before. Other than that, this is a great everyday cleanser if you aren’t wearing a ton of makeup that needs to be removed—-or if you do wear lots of makeup and don’t mind following up the cleanse with a swipe of micellar water!

Awesome for Dermatitis
I have been through so many face washes in the last months and this is the only one that works for me! It leaves my skin moist and clean and there's no redness.

Not what I expected
This is not your typical oil cleanser. I was shocked that it is more of a thick gel-like cleanser. However, it is quite gentle. I have eyelid dermatitis and it did not irritate my eyes at all. I haven't been using it for long, but seems to be a winner. I'll re-review if I change my mind!

Love this product for mature sensitive skin. This product was recommended to me as a facial cleansing oil, however I use it as a cleanser for my body as well. I am a minimalist and love the fact this can be used for face and body.

Great for Hypersensitive Skin
I had eczema when I was a child and haven't really experienced it since then other than a patch on my hand or face if i came in contact with an irritant. For whatever reason this summer my skin was just flaring with constant rashes and itchiness. This was the only product I used in the shower that could calm it down.

Best make up remover
This is the best makeup remover. This removes all the makeup foundation away easily. It is perfect for oily skin. I love to use it especially during summer time when my skin is shiny and oily.

Xeracalm cleanser for Ezcema & Rosacea!
Xeracalm is amazing for Rosacea and Ezcema. I have a lot of redness due to some atopic dermatitis and Rosacea. This cleanser has been really helpful for inflammation and calming the skin. It takes off my makeup and makes my skin feel so fresh. My skin is looking better and less red because of this cleanser. Highly recommend for those with sensitive skin!

Quick and effective
This is a very effective first cleanser for both face and body. It is a clear, thick gel-liquid. I use it for removing sunscreen and makeup from my face before following up with a gentle cleanser by another brand. I have also used it on my body after sunny days featuring many layers of sunscreen and it works great. It makes short work of removing mascara, but it does sting a bit when I use it along my lash line. Interestingly, it has some light foaming action when emulsified with water, which is not what I was expecting but it does not seem to be even slightly irritating. I don’t usually wash my face in the morning, but this does make a great AM cleanser on its own for days when I feel the need for a morning cleanse. Apart from the slight stinging it causes my eyes, I’m pleased with this and will consider repurchasing when the time comes.

Wonderful cleanser
This is a gentle cleanser that lathers and removes all of my makeup without drying my skin. I have very sensitive skin and find that this calms my skin. I will continue buying this product.

Great cleanser!
Great for dry, sensitive skin. My nightly routine - Initially cleanse with Avene Micellar water, followed by Xera Cleansing Oil (using Clarisonic). Follow up with Avene Mineral Spring Water. Always getting compliments on my skin, and asked what I use.

Interesting Texture
I was using the La Roche Posay Hydrating Cleanser and wanted to try something new. This Avene cleansing oil is very interesting. First off, it's not oily and doesn't leave behind a greasy residue. It leaves the skin very soft and soothed. I have super sensitive rosacea prone, acne prone skin and it didn't trigger any breakouts or redness.

A must for anyone on Accutane
I'm on Accutane and this cleanser has helped my face a lot. Its helped it stay soft, smooth and it doesn't cause any dryness of irritation. Well, it does not cause anymore dryness because anyone that's taken Accutane knows that it in itself causes dryness. Avene has some incredible products and since I've been on the Accutane they have been a lifesaver for me. I fully intend to use this line once I'm off the Accutane as well simply because I've seen such a difference in the softness and texture of my skin since adding these products when before adding these the Accutane was making my skin feel like alligator skin. The other product I'm using in this line is the Xtra Calm balm....definitely a must for anyone on Accutane or anyone with very dry sensitive skin.

Great stuff!
Very gentle and I love the pump. This lives up to all other great Avene products. Just the right amount of lather and gets my makeup off.

Transformed my skin
Every year from fall until spring, I get dry, red, itchy, flaky patches on my face. That would happen even with using so-called mild cleansers. I started using this cleanser a couple of months ago and this is the first year in many that I haven't had one issue. It removes my makeup extremely well, yet somehow doesn't dry out my face. I definitely feel the need to moisturize after I use it, but I haven't had any dryness.
