Avène Tolérance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Balm
Avène Tolérance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Balm is made for skin that is both reactive and dry: dry to very dry, hypersensitive, reactive or intolerant skin.
D-Sensinose™, Avène's soothing postbiotic ingredient, helps interrupt the cycle of reactivity. Shea butter and squalane nourish and help restore the skin barrier with a biomimetic formula.
It contains no fragrance and no preservatives, and comes in Avène's sterile packaging to keep it pure from the first use to the last.
Why we love it
Dry, reactive skin needs richness without risk. This balm gives both. It wraps skin in comfort, calms quickly and keeps the formula simple and pure. We reach for it most in winter, when the cold and dry air make sensitive skin even more fragile.
Benefits
- Calms sensations of heat, stinging and tightness
- Nourishes and hydrates dry, reactive skin
- Helps restore the skin barrier with a biomimetic formula
- Helps reduce how often and how strongly skin reacts over time
- Fragrance-free and preservative-free

Dry to very dry, hypersensitive
