Our body is made up of 60% water. It circulates in the blood before evaporating through the epidermis. It is this water that gives our skin its suppleness. When our skin is dehydrated, it becomes dry, wrinkled and uncomfortable. This is where hyaluronic acid comes in. This pure and natural molecule ensures water retention in our bodies, to moisturise it daily, restore suppleness to our skin and strengthen its barrier.
In our Avène Thermal Spring Water products, we use natural hyaluronic acid, which is extremely pure and has a high molecular weight. It forms a protective film on the surface of the epidermis, like a natural barrier that captures water and prevents it from evaporating through the epidermis. This form of hyaluronic acid naturally protects the skin from external aggressors while providing long-lasting hydration.
By regularly using skincare products and creams with hyaluronic acid, your skin will be lastingly hydrated and naturally regain its suppleness and softness.
A FEW WORDS FROM OUR EXPERT
Our skin is smart and looks after itself. To take care of all skin types, we have proven that imitating its components delivers maximised benefits: the hydrating power of a mimetic formula goes beyond that of a traditional formula.
The first 100% natural-origin biomimetic moisturizing skincare products. Rich in hyaluronic acid and Avène Thermal Spring Water, they soothe and moisturize sensitive to reactive skin.
While high molecular weight hyaluronic acid hydrates and plumps the skin on the surface, our low-weight hyaluronic acid (HAF 120) is composed of smaller fragments, allowing it to work deeper.
Perfectly compatible with the keratinocyte receptors, it immediately activates the hyaluronic acid production signal. The skin is thus firmed in the long term.
Our formulation teams have developed a synergy of two types of natural hyaluronic acid in the Hyaluron Activ B3 range to act against signs of ageing both on the surface of the skin and deep down.
A FEW WORDS FROM OUR EXPERT
Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid is an active firming ingredient. It boosts the skin's synthesis of hyaluronic acid.
For optimal tolerance and effectiveness, it is preferable to choose treatments that are highly concentrated in high and low weight hyaluronic acid
The first Avène face care products that act on the cause of skin aging to stimulate cellular regeneration.
GO EVEN FURTHER
High molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HPM) is a molecule that, due to its large size, cannot penetrate the epidermis and thus acts only on the surface of the skin. It provides skin with a plump, moisturised appearance.
Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HAF 120), on the other hand, acts deeper. Perfectly compatible with keratinocyte receptors, it maximises the synthesis of hyaluronic acid in the skin and firms skin.
The ingredients in our products are carefully selected for their effectiveness.
