Protect your winter skin with Eau Thermale Avène

(30/10/2008)

Don’t fall victim to seasonal skin dramas and treat it with Eau Thermale Avène, whose products are all based on the clinically proven soothing and healing properties of the Avène thermal spring water. Freezing temperatures, cold winds and cranking up the central heating all play havoc with skin in winter, leaving it dry, red and flaky.

DON’T BE LEFT RED IN THE FACE

Eau Thermale Avène Anti-Redness Cream SPF 10 (£12.95 for 40ml) is a lifesaver for skin prone to flushing and redness in cold weather. Formulated with organic butcher’s broom and citrus extract, this cream has been developed to help strengthen capillaries, provide protection, and tackle the problems associated with redness as they appear.

For specific problem areas, apply Diroséal (£21.00/30ml), a gentle cream that is tinted green to neutralise the skin’s high colour. It also contains key active ingredient Rétinaldehyde helping to increase the thickness of the epidermis thus camouflaging the sight of unwated capillaries. Citrus extracts are also included to help reinforce vessels.

WINTER HOPE FOR DEHYDRATED HANDS

If your hands are feeling depressingly dry this winter, drench them with the ultra-moisturising Avène Hand Cream with Cold Cream (£5.50 for 75ml). Rich in Avène Thermal Spring Water (63%) and cold cream, this luxurious cream nourishes, protects and soothes dry hands. It’s also enriched with sucralfate, a powerful healing agent which allows for rapid tissue regeneration.

SOS FOR SERIOUS SKIN DRAMAS

The Avène Skin Recovery Cream (£11.95) is an emergency treatment that is perfect for dealing with winter flare-ups as it allows skin to recover after exposure to extreme weather conditions or temperatures. Paraben, fragrance and colouring-agent free, this soothing cream, rich in Avène spring water, calms any irritation, repairs damaged skin and restores comfort to dry skin.

Available from larger Boots and leading independent pharmacies.
