Aveeno Calm+Restore Oat Moisturising Balm 50ml - 24-Hour Hydration for Dry, Sensitive Skin

I recently started using the Aveeno Face CALM+RESTORE Oat Rich Balm after having a lot of breakouts on my nose, following using a rather abrasive retinol cream. This it has quickly become a staple in my skincare routine. Here’s why I highly recommend it: Deep Moisturization: This balm provides exceptional hydration for my very dry and irritated skin. From the first application, I noticed a significant improvement in the softness and smoothness of my skin. It penetrates deeply, delivering long-lasting moisture without leaving a greasy residue. I literally noticed the difference after one use (at nighttime) Soothing Formula: The inclusion of oat extract is a game-changer for soothing irritation and redness. My skin feels calmer and less inflamed after each use, which is particularly beneficial during harsh weather conditions or after using other skincare products that can be irritating. Rich and Creamy Texture: The texture of the balm is rich and creamy, making it feel luxurious and nourishing. It spreads easily over the skin, and a little goes a long way. I appreciate that it absorbs well, providing immediate relief and hydration. Gentle and Safe: As someone with sensitive skin, I’m always cautious about new skincare products. This balm is fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, and non-comedogenic, making it safe for my reactive skin. I’ve experienced no breakouts or adverse reactions since I started using it. Scent: While the product is designed to be fragrance-free, it has a very mild, natural scent from the ingredients. the oat maybe ... It’s not unpleasant, but it’s worth noting for those who are extremely sensitive to any kind of smell. Personally, I find it barely noticeable and not a deterrent from using the product. Value for Money: The Aveeno Face CALM+RESTORE Oat Rich Balm comes in a generous size for a face balm, and because you need only a small amount per application, it lasts a long time. This makes it a great value for the quality and effectiveness of the product. Overall Experience: I am extremely satisfied with the Aveeno Face CALM+RESTORE Oat Rich Balm. It has made a noticeable difference in the hydration and comfort of my skin, effectively addressing dryness and irritation. If you have very dry, sensitive, or irritated skin, I highly recommend giving this balm a try. Rating: ★★★★★

Moisturises well, though without an oily feel, and eases irritated skin whilst causing no flare ups. Is good as a night cream over other treatments - due to its calming effects, it's a good counter for the irritation which might be caused by retinol/retinal or AHA serums, though I don't use it on nights when my skin felt drier, when I use another, gloopier moisturiser. Used over a serum, however, it does leave a slight, white residue, which takes a moment to rub in/disappear, so I tend to use it on days when I'm not wearing makeup. I've used it once under makeup - and it was fine with no primer, which my skin loathes, though as a base it was quite mattifying. Will definitely be buying more - it's one of those creams I'll reach for first when my skin feels overdone, out of sorts, and generally needing a more pared back, gentle approach.

Sine I have been using the balm I have noticed my skin on my face feels less dry and sore. The redness has decreased slightly. The cream is quite thick although I have found it absorbs quite well when rub into my skin gently for a couple of minutes. Skin feels softer. There is a slight odour but nothing offensive and it does disappear once applied. Hopefully this will help protect soften and keep moisture in my skin.

I like Aveeno products as they are good quality and value for money. However I do find this balm a little greasy on my face which puts me off. I thought it would be more like a gel and disappear into the skin but it leaves quite a residue.

Lovely texture, bought for my husband as he has very dry skin. I tried it, but i have combination skin, so I found it too greasy for me.

Un peu cher en France, mais particulièrement efficace pour les peaux sèches. Une des rares crèmes qui ont réellement conservé l'hydratation pendant 24h pour moi sans être comédogène.
