I have very sensitive skin that is prone to eczema and irritation, which can get quite sore now and then. Because of this I am always on the hunt for new skin products to try out, that are not only kind to my skin, but also nourishing without irritating it - I found this in the Avéne - Soothing hydrating serum.
I am a big fan of serums, they are an important element to my skin care routine as I suffer from dry and sensitive skin and moisturizing alone is not enough, I find using a serum injects that extra moisture needed to keep my skin nourished. I have tried a few serums over the years, and where some irritated my skin, I found that with Avéne it didn't.
My experience:
Once I cleanse my skin, I then apply one pump of the Avène soothing hydrating serum to my face, the serum instantly sinks into the skin, leaving a silky and smooth texture. Finally I apply my moisturiser. I do this in the morning and in the evening everyday.
Also it is important to note that I was trialling Avéne over a period when I was on a lot of medication (anti-inflammatory and strong painkillers) which affected my skin and my skin flared up and got very sore, when applying this serum I found it soothed and revitalised my skin. Throughout the day I would also dab the sore parts of my face with a little bit of serum, which helped sooth it.You can buy
