Finding a range of ultra-nourishing and highly efficacious products can be a hard task, add in a gentle-to-skin nature and you’ve got yourself a trifecta of trickiness. That was of course, until Avène reformulated their dermatologically-backed DermAbsolu duo.
With a natural collagen-supporting formula of bakuchiol, pro-ceramides, and niacinamide the Trial Team members found the nourishing duo worked wonderfully for their skin. They found their skin’s elasticity, firmness and plumpness boosted over the course of the trial.
Our members particularly liked that the creams have been designed to be sensitive skin-friendly, even with the light, fresh scent. They found that it just added to the ritual of applying the evening cream before bed.
The Avène jars have both been designed with sustainability in mind, as they both feature refillable jar inserts. Our members enjoyed this sustainable design choice, especially as the refills are less costly to continue to repurchase.
Both of the ultra-hydrating creams are formulated with a rich texture that our members found to absorb in easily, leaving behind no greasy residue. At the end of the trial, our members were enjoying the benefits of brightened, hydrated skin.

“The Reshaping Day Cream comes in a very solid glass jar with a removable plastic refill inside. You remove the foil lid from the refill and then you twist it into the jar to lock it in place. The refills are somewhat cheaper than it is to buy a new jar. The cream looks to be rather thick but smooths onto the skin with ease and is actually very light. Wonderfully hydrating and left my skin with a luminous glow. I had no issues applying makeup over the top of this cream. After using the cream in conjunction with the matching Night Cream I noticed some very positive changes in my 60+ skin. Lines around my mouth area were the ones that were impacted the most. Some have vanished and others are hardly noticeable. I will happily continue to use this product.” – Meedee, read more reviews here…
“I’ve been trialing the DermAbsolu Reshaping Day Cream for the past few weeks and I have to say, this one really impressed me! As a woman with ageing, sensitive skin, I’m always on the lookout for skincare that delivers results and feels gentle on my face. This ultra-nourishing cream ticked all the boxes. I applied the Day Cream each morning after my serum and I felt it instantly hydrated my face, neck and décolletage and I noticed it melted beautifully into my skin. No greasy residue and my makeup went on well after use. My skin looks plumper. I was super impressed! Over time, my complexion has looked firmer, more radiant, clearer and well hydrated. I was pleased to say it gives my skin that youthful glow that I want. A bonus is it comes in a refillable jar. Love a product that’s kind to both your skin and the planet.”- joelle1, read more reviews here…
“Avene’s DermAbsolu Intensive Reshaping Night Cream is a rich and totally nourishing cream to use at night time. It comes in a beautiful pot which you pump down and the product comes out like a pump. 2 to 3 pumps is enough. The cream has a gorgeous, relaxing and lovely scent, which disappears almost as soon as the product has absorbed into your skin. The product is rich but not at all greasy or oily. My skin felt so comfortable with this night cream on, it nourished, hydrated and moisturised. It also made my skin smooth and soft, my skin felt lovely in the morning after cleansing. This cream really does help with mature skin issues, so it helps with dryness, it firms the skin, tightens it up a little and makes your skin feel soft and smooth. Wrinkles looked less intense and angry, and it relaxed my skin a lot. This cream is absolutely like the much more expensive creams that offer similar results, but this one is a fraction of the price. I thoroughly recommend this cream, and I can’t wait to try the other products in the range like the serum, mask and eye cream.” – Shop A Everyday, read more reviews here…
“It’s a very classy looking jar, the blue and gold gives the appearance of a luxury product. The cream is thick and ivory in colour and smells lovely. This cream smells so nice, it’s a calming scent just before bed. It absorbs well on my 50 year old skin, the next morning my skin still feels plump and moist. I have had no irritations or breakouts. I’ve noticed that the crows feet do not seem as deep or as pronounced. I really enjoyed using this night cream and am very happy with the results and will continue to use it and hope to purchase when the price is right.” Okatko, – read more reviews here…

Sounds like a great trial
It was and I was lucky enough to be chosen. I really like both creams. The night one has a special container that the top does not come off but has a little hole that the cream comes out of. Different?
Lucky You Normap
Yes you don’t want to pump too many times hey@!!
I have had that top on Dr Winns products -They are really good.
It’s great that you got to try these creams @Normap.
Oh they look great.
Yes they would have been an awesome trial to be chosen for.

would consider replacing their current anti-ageing creams with these product.. Yes I agree but must admit that they are not really cheap although Price Line have them on special at the moment I see. Be quick if you are interested.
Great reviews !!
Wow, really high ratings.
Yes they would be lovely to try.
Very positive results, thanks trial team.
Big saving on at Priceline at the moment.
They’re still in the pricy range, but the sale price at Priceline is great!
It was awesome, I can’t wait to try the other products in the range too
I’ll keep my eye out for this in the shops
I am not sure what other products they make but as I mentioned previously the night and day cream are great.
Good to know. thanks
I enjoyed being on this trial, love Avene!
I’ve tried this – and liked it – but I somehow failed to realise that the jars are refillable! That’s great. Thanks for highlighting this.
I love that it’s great for sensitive skin!
Sounds like a fantastic trial
I have tried them. Love the both products. The containers looks luxury and different.
Great creams, the smell is a bit off putting though.
Perhaps luckily I did not seem to smell much fragrance??
Avene is actually such amazing value, I can’t wait to try more of their products.
Excellent results and I loved reading the reviews. I will give these products a try when my current creams run out.
Wow! I like the sound of refillable jar inserts. Finally manufacturers are listening.
Yes, finally! Many brands have started selling refillable perfume bottles, too!
beautiful products to trial
These sound good
I was on this trial and after a few weeks started using a new night cream, but have now gone back to Avène. It is nice.
That’s good recommendation for Avene.
That is a great recommendation.
What a great trial and so glad our 50+ ladies could take part, I’ve seen some of them say they feel forgotten in the trials
Wow this would have been a dream trial!
Sounds like a product that I need.
Positive reviews, might get some for my mother for Christmas 🙂
She will really love it. Do they have a Christmas special perhaps?
Such a beautiful brand! Congratulations to the TT members!
The Avene Spring Water Spray is so refreshing yet moisturising at the same time. I think this will compliment with the brands creams especially for sensiitve skins.
