Avene Cleanance line of care products for problem skin

Avene is a world-famous brand of medicinal cosmetics, recommended for use by many cosmetologists and dermatologists. The main component of the product is Avene thermal water, the composition of which is rich in trace elements and minerals that determine its unique anti-inflammatory, soothing, protective and softening properties. The functioning of dermatological laboratories dates back to the 90s of the twentieth century. Since then, the company has regularly introduced the latest technologies and expanded its range, which allows consumers in more than 100 countries to purchase high-quality cosmetics.

Advantages of creams from the manufacturer Avene

The secret to the success of the brand is thermal water, of which at least 55% each type of product consists. The healing effect of this component is achieved due to the high content of nutrients in rocks and a neutral acidity level. In addition, the manufacturer has patented a unique packaging system - DEFI (Dispositif Exclusif Formule Intacte), which prevents the penetration of air or pathogenic microorganisms into the tube, but at the same time allows the product to be easily removed. In such an environment, contamination or development of oxidative processes is impossible, so the addition of preservatives is not required.

On guard of youth

The Avene Eluage line is designed specifically for the care of aging skin. The peak of specific changes on the face occurs in the fourth decade of a woman’s life. During this period, hormonal changes begin in the body, which significantly begin to spoil life. The production of substances that maintain skin tone decreases sharply. As a result, the oval of the face literally “floats”. I would like to tighten the sagging areas that have lost their elasticity. Avene Eluage Anti-Wrinkle Restoring Cream will help you turn back the hands of time. If you do not delay the aging process and take timely measures, then there is a great chance to look fresh and young thanks to this product.

Cosmetics in Russia

Women of Ancient Rus' paid great attention to skin care and applying decorative cosmetics. The only difference from Western women was that they attached magical meaning to each color. Some colors were considered to attract love and good luck, while others, on the contrary, could bring misfortune.

Raspberry, cherry and beet juice were used as blush and lipstick. Eyes and eyebrows were lined with soot. The face was bleached with wheat flour. Onion peels were used to dye hair golden. To become blonde, they used a mixture of saffron and chamomile. Russian women took great care of their facial skin. They used milk, sour cream, honey, egg yolk, animal fat, as well as cucumbers, cabbage, carrots, and beets. Cucumber juice or parsley decoction was used to whiten and get rid of freckles. Cornflower infusion was used for oily, porous skin. Plantain, nettle, coltsfoot, burdock roots were used to treat dandruff and against hair loss.

Skin care recipes have been carefully described. So, in the 12th century. Monomakh's granddaughter Zoe (Eupraxia) wrote the book “Ointments”; the Treatise of Eupraxia-Zoe is kept in the library of Lorenzo de Medici in Florence. Received in 1955 Professor B.D. Petrov translated the microfilm and is located in the Russian State Library, where information was collected not only on the treatment of various diseases, but also provided tips on hair care, body care, listed remedies for bad breath and for brushing teeth. In the well-known supplement to the magazine “Moskovskie Vedomosti” (published since 1756), “Economic Store,” which was published in Russia since 1780, various recommendations for caring for one’s appearance and using herbal cosmetics were constantly published.

The industrial production of cosmetics in Russia began with the foundation founded in 1843. Alphonse Ralet's factory in Moscow. She produced powder, Tridas soap, lipstick and perfume. In 1846 Rala was allowed to print the Russian coat of arms on its products. The stores of his trading house were located in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kharkov, and Odessa. After the Bolsheviks came to power, the Rale factory was renamed the Svoboda perfume and cosmetics factory.

In 1864 The soap laboratory of Heinrich Brocard was founded in Moscow. Things went well, and soon the factory began producing perfumes and lipsticks. Brocard was elevated to the rank of supplier to the Imperial Majesty's court. In 1878 Brocard was awarded a bronze medal at the World Exhibition in Paris, and in 1889. received a Big Gold Medal. After the revolution, the factory was nationalized, and it continued to operate under the new name “New Dawn”.

In 1885 A.M. Ostroumov invented anti-dandruff soap, which immediately gained great popularity. The soap was followed by the Metamorphosis cream. After the revolution, the Ostroumov factory was merged with the Bodlot factory and received the name “Rassvet”.

The basis is water from a life-giving source

The history of Avene's development dates back to 1975, when scientists in France began to carry out their developments in the field of dermatology. The main goal of the research was to create medicinal cosmetics capable of caring for problematic skin prone to dermatitis, allergies, redness and excessive dryness.

The basis of all brand products is water, unique in its properties and composition, extracted from the Avene thermal spring. It is rich in the following valuable minerals:

  • zinc,
  • manganese,
  • iron,
  • silver,
  • calcium.

The peculiarity of this liquid is its incredible softness, determined by the successful ratio of all elements in it. That is why this thermal water is not only comfortable for the skin, but also has healing properties, and the low pH level does not cause irritation, does not tighten or dry out the dermis.

The area in France where the Avene thermal springs are located

Cosmetics can be purchased at pharmacies and used independently at home. It is also successfully used as an adjunct to dermatological treatment. There is, for example, a special series called Sicalfat, aimed at eliminating dermatitis and healing the skin.
