Tolérance Extrême Lotion

I started using this product after a terrible skin flare up from using a skincare line loaded with essential oils. This range is magic it’s now the only thing I use. Please don’t ever stop making it.

1. It doesn't contain any ingredients that make my skin sting. Not even slightly. I think it's because it contains Behenyl Alcohol and not Cetyl or Cetearyl Alcohol (Both Cetyl and Cetearyl Alcohols, even though they are 'moisturising alcohols' make my skin sting instantly on application.) So glad Avene has not put them into this product and has replaced them with Behenyl instead which has no stinging effect. 2. The viscosity/texture of the cleanser allows you to easily massage into across your face. It isn't too thin and watery. 3. It removes all of my tinted sunscreen 4. It doesn't leave my skin feeling tight after showering 5. It doesn't worsen the drying side effects of a skincare prescription that I have to use and which dries my skin (prescription tretinoin) 6. It doesn't clog my pores or give me whiteheads/blackheads or spots. 7. The size of the bottle is generous and the price is very reasonable 8. The ingredients list is very conservative with no unnecessary plant extracts, fragrance ingredients or fancy cosmoceuticals 9. There is absolutely no fragrance/parfum. I am not allergic to fragrance but I know a lot of people are trying to reduce their use of products that contain fragrance/parfum, and I think there are some very good reasons for minimising fragrance. Thrilled that Avene have excluded fragrance ingredients. 10. I also use the tolerance emulsion moisturiser. The emulsion moisturiser is also a miracle product. It doesn't clog my pores either, absolutely no stinging and a great compliment to the cleansing lotion.

I have recently come across this product and have found it to be excellent for my skin. Thanks to the Avene diagnosis team who helped in pointing me in the right direction. I have very fragile, sensitive and irritable skin. This product soothed my skin from the first moment of use.

Fantastic for irritated allergic skin, hydrated with no grease. Highly recommend!

I have very sensitivite and asphyxiated skin, meaning my skin does not breathe the right way, so I get clogged pores extremely easily. This is why I get a lot of small pimples and blackheads. Also, my skin is hypersensitive and I cannot use all products, especially harsh ones. This works perfect for me. It cleans my pores and I can tell that they do not clogg the same way because my spots reduced. It is also hydrating while being non-comedogenic. Heaven!!
