If your retinoid or isotretinoin leaves your face tight, flaky, and raw, you need backup. Avene Cleanance Hydra rebuilds the moisture barrier your acne treatment strips away, so your skin stays comfortable enough to keep going. No greasy finish, no breakouts, just relief.

Key Benefits

  • Rebuilds lipid barrier: Restores the protective layer acne treatments deplete
  • Calms post-retinoid irritation: Soothes redness and tightness within hours
  • Non-comedogenic hydration: Absorbs fast without clogging pores or adding shine
  • Supports treatment adherence: Keeps your skin comfortable so you stay consistent with your regimen
  • 49% Avene Thermal Spring Water: Clinically proven to soften and calm sensitized skin

Key Ingredients

Avene Thermal Spring Water (49%): The signature French pharmacy active that soothes reactive, irritated skin on contact. Zinc Gluconate (0.5%): Calms inflammation and supports skin repair without irritation. Alpha-Bisabolol (0.5%): A plant-derived anti-irritant that reduces redness and discomfort. Coconut and Safflower Triglycerides (25%): Lipid-replenishing oils that rebuild the moisture barrier depleted by acne medications. Glycols: Humectants that draw water into dry, flaking skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Avene Cleanance Hydra used for?

Avene Cleanance Hydra is a soothing moisturizer that restores comfort to skin dried out by acne treatments like retinoids, isotretinoin, or benzoyl peroxide. It rebuilds the lipid barrier and calms irritation without clogging pores, so you can stay consistent with your regimen.

Can I use this with my retinoid or isotretinoin?

Yes. Apply Avene Cleanance Hydra morning and evening after your skin is clean and dry. It is formulated to support acne-treatment adherence by countering dryness and irritation, not interfere with your medication. Pair it with Cleanance Hydra Cleansing Cream for best results.

Will this moisturizer break me out?

No. Avene Cleanance Hydra is non-comedogenic and tested on acne-prone skin. It uses lightweight triglycerides that absorb quickly without leaving a greasy film or clogging pores. The formula is hypoallergenic and fragrance-safe for reactive skin.

How is this different from Avene Tolerance Control?

Cleanance Hydra is designed for acne-prone skin undergoing treatment. It rebuilds the lipid barrier stripped by retinoids and contains zinc gluconate to calm inflammation. Tolerance Control is for extremely sensitive or allergic skin with zero active treatment, focusing on minimalist barrier repair.
