So you ask, what is so special about the Avene Thermal Spring Water that you MUST keep a bottle of this at home and in your purse? The answer is simple: it works like magic. Let us explain.
Somewhere in Avene, France, a stream of bacteriologically pure water flows: the Avene Thermal Spring Water. This water’s 40-year journey in the Cevennes Mountain allows it to acquire a perfectly balanced mineral composition and to become gradually enriched with skin-softening trace elements and silicates. Over 300 studies attest to the unique therapeutic properties of this water. With its low sodium content and a pH level close to neutral, it’s proven safe and effective to purify skin, clean wounds, soothe and soften sensitive skin, and treat various skin conditions like rosacea, eczema, diaper rash, excessive dryness and sunburn, among others. And because this thermal spring water is directly connected to Avene’s Hydrotherapy Center, you can be assured that the first time it sees the light is when it touches your skin!
Aside from its dermatological purposes, Avene Thermal Spring Water can be used in so many ways. It can be used to instantly refresh and boost your skin’s moisture level after workout, while traveling, or just about any time of the day. You can also use it to tone your skin after cleansing, to set your makeup, or to soothe your skin after a cosmetic procedure.
