How to Use

Apply to your face, hands, or body morning and evening, or whenever skin feels tight or dry. Warm a pea-size amount between your fingertips and smooth gently over the skin using circular motions. Use more generously on very dry patches like elbows, knees, and hands. For best results, apply to slightly damp skin after cleansing to lock in extra hydration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use Avene Cold Cream on my face every day?

Yes, Avene Cold Cream is formulated for daily use on both the face and body. Its gentle, tolerance-tested formula makes it suitable for sensitive skin types who need consistent, reliable moisture without risking irritation or breakouts.

Is Avene Cold Cream safe for very sensitive or reactive skin?

Yes, it is tested for skin tolerance and built around Avene Thermal Spring Water, which is clinically known to calm and soothe sensitive skin. The formula is designed to minimize the risk of allergic reactions for even highly reactive skin types.

How is this different from Avene Tolerance Control Soothing Cream?

Avene Cold Cream focuses on deep nourishment and cold-weather barrier protection for dry and very dry skin. Tolerance Control targets ultra-reactive skin with a minimal ingredient list. Cold Cream is the better choice when dryness and environmental protection are your main concerns.

Does Avene Cold Cream leave a greasy residue on skin?

No, despite its rich texture, the Cold Cream absorbs comfortably and does not leave a heavy or greasy finish. It is designed for comfortable daily wear, even under clothing, making it practical for full body application in cold or dry conditions.
