Avene's New Tolerance Extreme Range

The Tolérance EXTRÊME range from Avène has been around for a while, but it's recently been given a bit of a face lift. The range has gone minimalist, keeping the effective and hardworking skincare, but by using only seven ingredients. We all know that our skin is faced with many challenges every day, aggressors from air conditioning, weather and pollution all take their tole. Avène feel that the skincare market has become very complicated and that the complex products can leave our skin feeling ‘overloaded’. Making it really hard for people to achieve skin comfort, especially for those with very sensitive skin.

Avène have taken inspiration from the nutrition and health market, taking things back to basics. Creating new formulations that fully respect and preserve the skins balance. Avène have developed the NEW Tolérance EXTRÊME range using a maximum of seven ingredients, in an effective and high performing formulation. I have two products from the new range to show you today!

Both products from the new Tolérance EXTRÊME range, use a combination of water, Glycerin and a selection of oils to keep skin hydrated. The ingredients leave skin feeling nourished, whilst still allowing it to breathe. 

Let's start with the Tolérance EXTRÊME Emulsion, which is designed to be a light daily moisturiser. It's created for normal to combination skin, created to be hydrating and soothing. It has a very milky texture, which disappears quickly into the skin leaving a good base for makeup. It's created with just six ingredients; Avène Thermal Spring Water, Glycerin (for hydration), Caprylic (for nourishment), Behenyl Alcohol (which creates a film to protect the skin’s barrier), Squalane (plant based moisturising agent) and finally Sodium Acrylates (which helps product spread easily and absorb quickly). The Tolérance EXTRÊME Emulsion retails for £13.50, which is for 50ml and you can buy it from Escentual. 

The second product is the Tolérance EXTRÊME Mask, which is an absolute must for anyone who travels a lot. This is an intense soothing and calming mask, which suits all skintypes. It has a really refreshing texture, which feels like it's nourishing the skin, without making it feel heavy or greasy. You only need to apply this mask for 5 minutes and it gives your skin a huge hydration boost. It's created with only 7 ingredients; Avène Thermal Spring Water, Glycerin (for hydration), Caprylic (for nourishment), Behenyl Alcohol (which creates a film to protect the skin’s barrier), Shea butter (which is soft and creamy), Safflower oil (a nourishing oil) and finally Sodium Acrylates (which helps product spread easily and absorb quickly). The Tolérance EXTRÊME Mask retails for £15, which is for 50ml and you can buy it from Escentual.
