Avene Rich Compensating Cream Review

I was finally able to incorporate Avene's Rich Compensating Cream into my skin care regimen this month and I have to say that it was just about a 5 star cream all around except for one issue: the price.   The cream is rich, absorbs quickly, keep skin hydrated through most of the day, and it is wonderful for sensitive skin.  The $30+ price for this cream makes it a bit hard to justify for about a month's supply (about 1.3 oz) for the average person.  I think you could pull off keeping this cream in your arsenal during the winter months only and go for a lighter moisturizer with sunscreen during the warmer months. 

I used this moisturizer twice a day after cleansing and toning.  At night I put it over any serums or treatments and it has always left my skin very well hydrated without being greasy.

 

All in all I am happy I purchased it but might replace it with something more reasonably priced.  I have had my eye on Bare Bones skincare for a few days now and the moisturizer looks like it would be great for sensitive skin and also for hydration during the winter months. 

Hope this review helps!
