Eau Thermale Avène Cleanance Aqua Cream-in-Gel 50ml — lightweight mattifying moisturizer with 24h hydration

Eau Thermale Avène Cleanance Aqua Cream-in-Gel is a lightweight mattifying moisturizer that instantly reduces shine, tightens the look of pores and delivers 24-hour hydration for oily, blemish-prone sensitive skin.

Designed as a multi-tasking daily cream-gel, Avène Cleanance Aqua blends refreshing water-light texture with targeted ingredients to control excess oil while keeping skin comfortable. It uses Monolaurin to visibly reduce surface shine and Niacinamide to help even skin texture, all without heavy residues. The formula sits well under makeup, absorbs quickly, and is developed for skin that is both sensitive and prone to blemishes.

How quickly will I see less shine and a matte finish?

The product offers rapid mattifying effects immediately after application thanks to its aqua-gel base and Monolaurin. You should notice a reduction in surface oil and a more matte appearance straightaway, with continued oil control throughout the day.

• Instant 50% reduction in shine on application (clinical observations reported by the brand)
• Fresh, non-greasy finish that absorbs quickly
• Suitable under makeup without pilling

Will this keep my skin hydrated without making it oily?

Yes — the Cleanance Aqua Cream-in-Gel is formulated to hydrate for 24 hours while preventing excess surface oil. Its light gel-cream structure locks in moisture but avoids the heavy occlusive feel that can worsen oiliness or congestion.

• 24-hour hydration support from a lightweight base
• Non-comedogenic texture designed for blemish-prone skin
• Balances moisture and sebum for combination skin types

Which active ingredients are responsible for results?

The formula centers on two key actives: Monolaurin and Niacinamide. Monolaurin targets rapid shine reduction, while Niacinamide works to improve skin texture and reinforce the skin’s visible appearance without harsh irritation.

• Monolaurin — provides immediate mattifying effect
• Niacinamide — helps even skin tone and supports clarity
• A gentle base suitable for sensitive, blemish-prone skin types

How should I integrate it into my daily routine?

Use this cream-in-gel as the moisturizing step after cleansing and applying any serums or targeted treatments. It can be used morning and night; in the morning, follow with sunscreen if exposed to daylight. Because of its fast-absorbing texture, it layers well beneath makeup or sunscreen.

• Apply to clean, dry skin morning and/or evening
• Allow a minute to absorb before makeup or sunscreen
• Works with serums and spot treatments for blemish-prone routines

Who is this for: Eau Thermale Avène Cleanance Aqua Cream-in-Gel is aimed at people with combination to oily, blemish-prone sensitive skin who want a lightweight moisturizer that reduces shine and hydrates without heaviness. It’s suited for anyone seeking a fast-absorbing, mattifying daily cream that layers well under makeup and complements acne-care regimens without adding irritation.
