For adults and even more so in children, when dry skin reaches the point of itching, it is no longer just a question of moisturising: the skin's barrier function must be restored.
Find out more about our XeraCalm A.D. skincare range for the face and body – developed for eczema-prone skin after 12 years of research.
Relief is on the way!
This rich daily emollient deeply nourishes your skin and restores comfort. This is the best remedy to soothe itching* and rebalance the skin's microbiome!
This is THE emergency SOS treatment for intense localised itching. It immediately reduces the intensity of itching and peaks of dryness on recurring itchy areas of the face, body and eyelids. And because intense localised itching can happen anywhere, any time, its small size means you can take it with you wherever you go.

A tailor-made key ingredient for eczema-prone skin: I-MODULIA®
Twelve years of research went into the development of the first unique and multi-competent biotechnological key ingredient derived from Avène Thermal Spring Water:
I-modulia®
Formulated around this patented key ingredient, XeraCalm A.D is an ultra-innovative, ultra-effective and ultra-safe range suitable for the face and body of infants, children and adults. This extraordinary key ingredient acts directly on the elements involved in eczema-prone skin, and in particular on itching*.
In order to keep only the ingredients that are useful for the skin and to do without any preservatives, our laboratories have developed a process that is one of a kind: Sterile Cosmetics®. This unique technology allows the product to be kept sterile and free of any external contamination throughout its use.
Thus, XeraCalm A.D provides skin prone to eczema with the safety it’s looking for.
The Lipid-Replenishing Balm and Cream are used daily to limit and prevent skin dryness and itching*. In addition, the Soothing Concentrate is applied locally to immediately relieve intense itching*. It’s the SOS product to keep with you! Whether choosing the balm or cream, adapt the texture to your skin type or the season: balm if your skin is very dry, cream when it is less so.
Soothe and relieve your skin quickly with an Avène Thermal Spring Water compress: spray the Thermal Water onto tissues and leave them on your face for 10 minutes. In case of itching, regularly apply either lipid-replenishing cream or balm, including on the eyelids if necessary. In case of irritation, use a protective repairing cream once or twice a day. And as a preventive measure, moisturise and protect your skin with a lipid-replenishing cream or balm at least once a day.
Simple but essential daily care limits skin dryness and restores the skin's barrier function. This way, the flare-ups become less frequent. Here is our advice:
Opt for gentle hygiene with a cleansing oil and lukewarm water between 32-34°C, and make sure their shower or bath does not exceed 10 minutes. Moisturise and protect the skin with a lipid-replenishing cream or balm at least once a day, even when the skin condition seems under control.
