"It's fantastic. I love it. It is scented, which is so annoying. Avène, please, someday, will you please come out with a non-scented one. It doesn't bother me, but it's just so unnecessary. Avène's expensive, but it's really, really good. I don't really use it all the time anymore. I was using it way too often before and now I just save it for like those moments where I really, really need it. So, I feel like it's justified."

Grab a snack friends, I have SO many skin & hair care empties!

"If you are someone who is incredibly dry, you would probably love this because it definitely gives like a glass skin kind of effect, and you don't need a whole lot of it. A little bit goes a long way because it is not cheap. [...] I love this product so much. [...] I don't even know how many of these I've gone through, so many. [...] It's definitely a staple in my collection of skincare that I can't live without. I will always have this."

"The Cleanance Hydra Soothing Cream is essentially a barrier repair moisturizer. It is not mattifying. I do not think this one is worth the spend. Instead, I would opt for a more affordable barrier repair moisturizer by CeraVe, Eucerin, or La Roche Posay."
