Avene Skin Care

Many years ago in France there was a man and his horse. This horse had a severe skin disease and was turned out to roam free over the Black Mountains near Avene. While roaming the horse happened upon a spring where he drank and rolled in a thermal spring, soon the horse was completely healed, or so goes the legend.

What is not merely legend are the products derived from this very same spring. Since 1743, the thermal spring water has been used to treat a variety of skin ailments including eczema, psoriasis, burns and atopic dermatitis. Over the years Avene Spring water products have continued to grow in popularity, in fact victims of the Chicago fire of 1871 were thankful recipients of Avene skin care products.

What was traditionally a French product has now become available worldwide. There are many products divided into two groups, professional line, which is for medical professionals, and the retail line that is available to the public.

All product lines contain natural thermal spring water from the original spring near Avene France. This water that originates as rain runs through the Cevennes Mountains and absorbs minerals and precious metals for 40 years before reaching the mouth of the spring.
