Expert Tip for Avène

"Cleanse gently, mist with Thermal Spring Water, then apply a Hydrance moisturiser for hydration. Add Cicalfate on areas needing recovery or comfort. In the morning, finish with a high protection Avène SPF 50 or SPF 50+. If you are blemish-prone, incorporate Cleanance for cleansing and targeted care. For very dry or eczema-prone skin, switch to XeraCalm A.D for replenishing relief. Keep steps simple and consistent."
