Understanding the Sensitive Skin Dilemma
Did you know that 1 in 2 individuals experiences sensitive skin?[1] It’s more common than many might realise. Both physiological factors like hormonal fluctuations, and external factors such as harsh chemicals, food intake, etc, can trigger this condition. Sometimes, we don’t even know where the trigger comes from, which can be frustrating, as it often brings discomfort, tingling sensation, and redness for those living with hypersensitive or allergic skin. These reactions can also affect more than just the skin, impacting mental well-being, self-confidence, and overall quality of life.
Recognising this need, Avène developed the Tolérance Control range to offer solutions for allergy-prone skin. This line delivers essential comfort and hydration, minimising irritation while soothing reactive or allergic skin and restoring its natural resilience over time with gentle, effective ingredients.
The Science and Power Behind the Tolérance Range
The Tolérance range is powered by two groundbreaking ingredients, making it ideal for sensitive skin:
(1) D-Sensinose™
A patented post-biotic active ingredient, derived from the unique microbiota of Avène Thermal Spring Water, which offers a breakthrough solution for hypersensitive skin by reducing reactivity and calming the skin.
How D-Sensinose™ Works Wonders for Sensitive Skin
Since sensitivity originates in sensory neurons, D-Sensinose™ targets them directly, blocking signals that trigger irritation or discomfort. This key ingredient soothes sensitive skin and helps reduce sensations like stinging, burning, or itching, ensuring a more comfortable skin experience.
(2) Avène Thermal Spring Water
A key ingredient in many Avène products is known for its calming and anti-inflammatory benefits. It helps restore the skin’s protective barrier, maintain hydration, and reduce sensitivity. After use, the skin feels soft, refreshed, and nourished, with no tightness or discomfort.

This fragrance-free, non-rinse gel-like lotion effectively cleanses and removes makeup from the face, lips, and delicate areas, such as the eyes, without causing irritation. It’s formulated with 99% natural ingredients, including D-Sensinose™ and Avène Thermal Spring Water, which work together to soothe, hydrate, and strengthen the skin. This powerful combination helps restore the skin’s natural balance while protecting it from further sensitivity.
Tolérance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream: Intense Hydration and Protection
Following the cleanser, the next in line is the Tolérance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream. This lightweight yet deeply hydrating
cream is designed to restore the skin’s barrier and soothe sensitive, reactive skin. With D-Sensinose™ and Avène Thermal Spring Water, it calms irritated skin and helps reduce sensitivity by:
- Calm the skin in 30 seconds
- Hydrate for 24 hours
- Restore the skin barrier in just 48 hours
The cream also features Skin Affinity formula, a 100% biomimetic blend that mimics the skin’s natural structure. This formula enhances its ability to restore and strengthen the skin barrier, delivering intense hydration and boosting moisture levels by +59% in just 1 hour. The result is deeply nourished, hydrated skin, and, thanks to its non-comedogenic formula, it is suitable for all skin types, including those prone to acne.
Introducing the Tolérance Hydra-10 Hydrating Fluid: Deep Hydration for Sensitive Skin
The Tolérance Hydra-10 Hydrating Fluid is a new addition to the Tolérance Control line, offering 100% biomimetic properties. What makes this product unique compared to previous creams is that it is the first biomimetic hydrating product in the range, formulated with 100% naturally sourced ingredients and consisting of only 9 skin-mimetic components naturally present in the skin to help preserve its microbiome.
It contains high-weight Hyaluronic Acid, which delivers intensive hydration for up to 48 hours, making it ideal for those in need of deep moisture. Like all the products in the line, it is fragrance- and preservative-free, ensuring no irritation while deeply nourishing the skin.
Patented Sterile Cosmetic Technology for Ultimate Skin Safety
Avène not only prioritises high-quality ingredients but also places great emphasis on innovation to create the best possible products. It utilises patented D.E.F.I. (Device for Exclusive Formula Integrity) packaging, which prevents bacteria and other germs from contaminating the formula. This technology also allows preservative-free formulas to retain their properties and effectiveness over time without deterioration. Unlike most skincare products that require preservatives once opened, Avène achieves this without preservatives, making it ideal for sensitive and hypersensitive skin.
Not to mention, the new DEFI 2 pump takes convenience to the next level. With just a single pump, it delivers the perfect dose effortlessly.
