You CAN achieve a beautiful and radiant complexion, even when you have sensitive skin. We consider it a right, and we strive to offer it to these skin types, which deserve special attention and adapted care to preserve their balance and vitality.
Faced with the aggressions of daily life and the oxidative stress that weakens them, we offer adapted cleansing and care solutions to soothe, protect and, above all, to make you feel better in your (sensitive) skin.
As a specialist in sensitive skin, Avène Dermatological Laboratories has developed a range of cleansers, make-up removers and daily skincare products that awaken the natural beauty of all sensitive skin with protective and energising products . All of this while guaranteeing tolerance, simplicity and sensorial appeal. Perfect for anyone wanting to refocus on the essentials!
The first step to beautiful and healthy skin is proper daily cleansing! To gently remove make-up and impurities, opt for the Micellar Lotion. It removes make-up and cleanses (even pollution particles), and provides softness and freshness in one quick and easy step. A no-rinse product, it respects the integrity of sensitive skin and soothes it thanks to its high concentration of Avène Thermal Spring Water.

TRIED AND TESTED
This mask is fantastic. I recently discovered it, and it's a real joy in my skincare routine. I now use it twice a week after the Avène Gentle Exfoliating Gel. My skin feels baby soft after applying it, plus some thermal spring water. I would recommend it.
Caring textures adapted to each sensitive skin type
The galenic formulas of the Les Essentiels skincare products are treasures that satisfy each sensitive skin type and respond to their needs with the most pleasant and effective texture. We’re here tell you everything, case by case.
Soothing Radiance Mask
Cocoon-like texture rich in Avène Thermal Spring Water to soothe and repair the skin barrier. Tired skin is refreshed, radiant and intensely replenished.
Revitalising Nourishing Cream
The rich velvety texture is non-greasy and rapidly absorbed, providing long-lasting nourishment for dry sensitive skin.
Start with a gentle exfoliation by massaging the face and neck using light circular movements. Then soak 2 tissues in thermal water and apply to the right and left sides of the face, like a sheet mask, for 10 minutes. Finally, apply a thick layer of a hydrating and soothing mask that penetrates the skin and protects it.
Yes, it’s possible with a gentle product adapted to sensitive skin, the texture of which must be smooth and comfortable. When the skin is sensitive, we recommend exfoliating only once a week. Use circular movements, not pressing too hard, and then rinse well with clean water. When it’s time to dry, gently pat the skin with a towel.
The Milk Cleanser allows for a very gentle make-up removal from the face and eyes. It can be massaged into the face and neck using circular movements and then removed with a cotton pad soaked in lotion or water. Alternatively, apply the milk cleanser to a cotton pad and apply from the centre of the face outwards.
If you feel the need to rinse with water, you can of course do so. To neutralise the hardness of tap water, simply finish your cleansing with a toner or a spritz of the Thermal Spring Water.
