Avène Thermal Spring Water, a natural key ingredient.
Avène Thermal Spring Water begins its journey when it falls as rain over the Cevennes Mountains, filtering down through the soil and rocks for over 40 years before bubbling up, pure and clear, to the surface at the Sainte-Odile spring. We direct the water straight from the source to the production plant where the Eau Thermale Avène products are manufactured.
Avène Thermal Spring Water is at the heart of all our products
Together with the water, Avène Dermatological Laboratories also design formulas and develop innovative techniques to soothe the most sensitive skin. Some of our recent advancements include:
