Avene Restorative Skin Cream

Avene Restorative Skin CreamIn life, accidents happen and sometimes shit hits the fan. It could be at work, at home or after a skin treatment. For me, it was after a skin treatment – the laser was too harsh on my skin and I had a small spot on my nose as a reminder to not think that I know better all the time; because I don’t.

I picked this up at the store as soon as I realized the redness was not going to subside in hours; it had started flaking and was looking a tad inflamed. I applied this and hoped for the best. This turned out to be a bit of a skin saver.

After the first day, the burnt spot decreased in size and redness while looking less visible. The flaking had stopped and the skin around it looked less irritated. After 5 days and 3 applications daily, no one could tell or notice I recently had an abused spot.

This fast acting concotion of copper sulfate and zinc sulfate work together to help maintain a productive skin environment for repair and recovery. Mirconized sucralfate aids in the maintence of the fragile skin barrier and helps minimize irritation. Like all Avene products, this cream is chock full of Avene thermal water to help calm and soothe your skin.

You can use this on any open wounds; cuts, bruises, post-dermalogical treatmets etc and it is also gentle enough for use on infants. This is a must have for any first aid-kit.
