Avène has over 275 years of expertise in caring for sensitive skin and is recommended by dermatologists worldwide. At the heart of every formula, is clinically proven Avène Thermal Spring Water to soothe, soften and calm the skin.

In Avène, a small village in the southwest of France that hugs the banks of the Orb River, flows a thermal spring - the source of a unique, pure water with remarkable soothing and calming properties.

Avène is dedicated to sensitive skin and improving quality of life for all skin types, leveraging pharmaceutical and dermatological heritage and expertise.

Laboratoires Dermatologiques Avène rigorously tests every formula with the utmost stringency to ensure safety and tolerance. Dermatologists are involved from product concept and development, through a series of pre-clinical and clinical tests on a substantial number of patients. Our formulas and the toxicology profile of each, individual ingredient are audited by scientists. All clinical studies are conducted under medical control ensuring the utmost respect for sensitive skin.

Avène Thermal Spring emerges within a protected site in the Haut-Languedoc Regional Park in the South of France. The untouched biodiversity and low rate of human activities ensure the Water remains untouched from modern-day technology, pollution and contamination that could disrupt the composition.

Rain water filters down and sets off on a 50-year journey in the deepest and oldest layers, where it becomes infused with trace elements, silicates and comes into contact with a unique microflora: Aqua. Dolomiae. Avène Thermal Spring Water emerges from the Sainte-Odile Spring, its composition and flow never changing.
