Eau Thermale Avène Cleanance HYDRA Soothing Cleansing Cream 6.7 fl oz — gentle, hydrating cleanser for acne-treated sensitive skin

Cleanance HYDRA Soothing Cleansing Cream by Eau Thermale Avène is a gentle, creamy face wash designed to cleanse skin without stripping moisture while you use acne treatments. Avène combines dermatological research and thermal spring water to create a cleanser that removes dirt, oil, and residue from topical acne products while helping to soothe sensitized skin. This cream-to-foam formulation aims to respect the skin barrier, delivering light hydration and calming properties so the skin feels comfortable after use, not tight or rough.

How does this cleanser work alongside acne treatments?

The Cleanance HYDRA formula lifts away impurities and product buildup left by active acne medicines without interfering with treatment. It focuses on cleansing while minimizing further irritation so your prescribed routine remains effective.

• Removes debris and excess oil that can trap topical actives
• Gentle surfactants avoid harsh stripping of skin lipids
• Soothing thermal spring water calms redness from treatment-related dryness

Will it dry out my skin or preserve moisture?

Unlike traditional acne cleansers that can be overly drying, this cream cleanser replenishes light moisture and helps preserve the skin’s natural barrier. It’s formulated to leave skin feeling soft rather than tight after rinsing.

• Hydrating emollients reduce post-cleanse tightness
• Barrier-supporting ingredients help maintain skin comfort
• Rinses clean without leaving heavy residue

What texture and experience should I expect during use?

The product has a velvety cream texture that lathers mildly when massaged with water. It’s designed for a soothing cleansing ritual—comfortable for sensitive, treatment-prone skin.

• Creamy consistency for gentle massage and even application
• Light lather that removes impurities without harsh friction
• Subtle, non-irritating scent profile suitable for sensitive skin

How should I incorporate it into my skincare routine?

Use Cleanance HYDRA as the cleansing step morning and/or evening before applying acne treatments and moisturizers. Pat skin dry and follow with prescribed topical therapies and a nourishing moisturizer or sunscreen as recommended.

• Apply to damp face, massage gently, then rinse thoroughly
• Follow immediately with acne products to maintain treatment efficacy
• Use daily to manage cleansing without over-drying
