Dull and drab skin is a thing of the past thanks to this radiance-boosting duo

The product

Have you ever looked at your skin and thought, ‘I wish I had a glow from within’ or even ‘boy I wish my skin didn’t look so dull’? You’re not alone. The search for the product to beat away radiance-lacking, dull, drab skin is officially over. 

Yep, stop looking because we’ve found it! The latest launch from sensitive skin-friendly Avène has paired radiance boosting abilities with nourishing skin-loving ingredients that will work to enhance your complexion. With both the serum and the moisturiser from the Vitamin Activ CG range working hard at brightening and enhancing your complexion’s appearance, the duo help to encourage the reduction of fine lines and pigmentation.

Working in tandem, the first step in this power-packed pair is the Eau Thermale Avène Vitamin Activ CG Serum. This easy-to-apply serum is loaded with brightening vitamin C, the main radiance-boosting saviour. But the good times don’t stop there, because this serum also includes skin-loving niacinamide, along with antioxidants that help to detoxify and protect your skin from free radicals. 

The routine also includes the ultra-luxuriously thick (yet never greasy) and easy-to-absorb Eau Thermale Avène Vitamin Activ CG Radiance Intensive Cream. This moisturising cream works to give your skin a hard hitting hit of hydration; it’s a skin-plumping addition to your routine that helps to ward away the appearance of fine lines with the inclusion of anti-ageing ingredients. But of course this cream also works to leave your skin feeling nourished, and of course, brightened. 

So, let’s see what our REVIEWcrew® members had to say about the brightening, skin-loving duo…

The panel 

BEAUTYcrew sent the Eau Thermale Avène Vitamin Activ CG Radiance Intensive Cream and the Eau Thermale Avène Vitamin Activ CG Serum to a panel of women aged 18 to 35 dealing with a dull, radiance-lacking complexion.

The lowdown

The complexion-enhancing effects: If there’s one thing we could ask a genie for, it would be to have a perfect complexion. Thankfully, we can all stop going around rubbing lamps for the chance to have stunning skin, because Avène has given us (and our REVIEWcrew® members) the Vitamin Activ CG range. This duo has helped our REVIEWcrew® members to see renewed texture and tone (think hyperpigmentation help) through using this skin-salvaging pair.

The visible radiance-boosting: When we see a range claiming to boost our dull, drab complexions, we’re immediately intrigued. So we were so pleased our REVIEWcrew® members got to put the radiance-boosting to the test. And boy, were they pleased to see that the range lived up to its promises. Dull skin is now firmly in the rearview mirror for our REVIEWcrew® members. 

The hydrating formulas: Now this is going to sound like a no-brainer, right? A gorgeously thick cream has left behind ultra-hydrating effects? Well, duh. But the serious levels of hydration our REVIEWcrew® members felt warrant a shout out. With a nourishing blend of butters (and of course Avène’s own thermal spring water) the lusciously luxe cream was a standout for its moisturising properties alone.
