Avène Cleanance A.H.A Exfoliating Serum is a gentle, high-tolerance exfoliating treatment specially formulated for adult, sensitive, and acne-prone skin.

Texture Refining: Uses a patented acid duo that is clinically proven to be 1.5 times more effective than salicylic acid at refining skin texture.
-
Sebum Regulation: Contains glutamic acid to control excess oil production and prevent future breakouts.
-
Skin Soothing: Infused with 79% Avène Thermal Spring Water to calm irritation, protect the skin barrier, and prevent drying.
-
Clean Formula: Fragrance-free, silicone-free, non-comedogenic, and highly compatible as a makeup base.
Key Active Ingredients
-
Succinic Acid (3%): Adjusts pH while working alongside lactic acid to clear imperfections.
-
Lactic Acid (A.H.A) (2.43%): Gently exfoliates the surface layer of the skin to promote cellular renewal.
-
Glutamic Acid: Regulates oil production to reduce shine.
How to Use
-
Application: Apply 1 to 2 times daily (morning and/or evening) to clean, dry skin across the face, neck, and décolleté. Avoid the sensitive eye contour area.
-
Routine Placement: Layer it after cleansing and before your daily moisturizer.
-
Sun Protection: Because Alpha Hydroxy Acids (A.H.A) increase sun sensitivity, always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day while using this product.
- Note: If initial skin discomfort or minor stinging occurs, space out the applications (e.g., every other night) until your skin builds tolerance.
