Eau Thermale Avène DermAbsolu Reshaping Day Cream

This day cream from Avene It is targeted towards aging skin, and suitabloe for sensitive skin. It comes in a refillable 50ml glass jar where the inner container with the product can be refilled. It features 1% Bakuchiol, 2% pro-ceramides, Vanilla Polyphenols, shea butter, jojoba oil, Vitamin E. Bakuchiol is a wonderful skincare ingredient - a powerful antioxidant with soothing effects that can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The cream has a whipped creamy texture, that feels almost too rich at first. It has quite a strong old-fashioned fragrance. On my dehydrated combination skin, it takes a bit of time before it's absorbed. After that point, I don't feel it, but it is slightly sticky to touch. This is not surprising, given that the product is meant to provide a "protective film for 24-hour hydration". I just wait a bit before putting on sunscreen. Despite the initial heaviness, it's keeps my skin comfortable and moisturised. I experienced no irritation. Overall I was really impressed with just how well it hydrates my skin throughout the day in winter. Usually I have to reapply moisturiser halfway through the day due to dryness, but not when I use this. It would be great to wear on a long flight. It's also so convenient to have a moisturiser with a decent percentage of bakuchiol without having to add another serum step. It didn't fix any sagging but I wasn't expecting any topical products to. It just made my skin feel happy and gave it a healthy radiance. My only minor criticism is that the scent should be reduced if this is meant to be for sensitive skin as well. It was a bit overpowering at first but I got used to it. It would have been five stars if not for the fragrance. I would not advise those with oilier skin types to try this, as it is really quite heavy and is likely to feel like it's too much. I personally don't think I'd be able to use this in the hotter months.
