Can I use this product if I have sensitive skin?
Yes, the Hyaluron Activ B3 Aqua Cream-In-Gel is formulated with Avène Thermal Spring Water and is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
How is this different from a typical cream or gel?
This is an 'Aqua Cream-In-Gel', meaning it combines the richness and efficacy of a cream with the light, refreshing texture of a gel. It provides intense hydration without feeling heavy or greasy.
Can I use this product both in the morning and at night?
Yes, it is designed for dual use. You can apply it once or twice a day, either in the morning, at night, or both, depending on your skincare needs.
How do I use it as a mask?
To use it as a mask, apply a more generous layer to your face, neck, and décolleté. Leave it on for the desired time (e.g., 10-15 minutes or overnight) and then remove any excess or tissue off. It can be used as an intensive treatment 1-2 times per week.
What does 'refillable' mean for this product?
The container is designed to be reusable. Once you finish the product, you can purchase a refill cartridge and easily replace the empty inner jar, reducing waste.
Does this product contain fragrance?
Yes, it has a delicate fragrance. While generally well-tolerated, individuals with extreme fragrance sensitivities should test it on a small area first.
Troubleshooting
Skin experiences mild irritation or redness upon first use.
This can occasionally occur with active ingredients. Try using the product only once a day or as a mask on alternate days. Ensure you are not layering too many other potent active ingredients simultaneously. If irritation persists, discontinue use.
Product feels sticky or heavy.
Ensure you are applying the correct amount. A small, pea-sized amount is usually sufficient for the face and neck. Allow a few minutes for absorption before applying makeup or other products. For very oily skin, consider using it only as a night treatment.
No noticeable improvement in firmness or wrinkles after several weeks.
Consistent, daily application is key. Ensure the product is applied to clean skin to maximize absorption. Results from anti-aging treatments can take time, often 4-12 weeks of regular use.
The refillable container mechanism is difficult to operate.
Ensure you are following the specific instructions for your refillable jar. Typically, the inner jar needs to be carefully lifted or twisted out, and the new one pressed firmly into place. Refer to any included instructions or diagrams.
