Great protective cream
This is a great all-purpose cream, and it works especially well for healing chapped lips, hands, and dry spots on my face. This is an updated formula and I prefer it to the old one. The tube lasts a long time and it's a great size for tucking in your purse.

Great Stuff!
Was given samples of this to use post CIT; kept my extremely sensitive skin from peeling and definitely sped up my recovery. I had to purchase from Avène because Lovely Skin doesn’t ship during winter (see disclosure). Will definitely be purchasing again.

Amazing products
My dermatologist recommend this after I used to many retinal products my skin was inflamed. This has done wonders. Within a week my skin barrier was back to normal. I'm not using this with retinal at night. No flaking, skin is hydrated. This is my 3rd tub. I will alternate with recovery line from the same brand

My Go To
After Halo or Fraxel this is my go to product. Nothing compares to it. Actually, I love all of the Avene products.

Cannot live without it
I gave myself a chemical burn on my face, and this cream helped to heal it. It left no scar. I also use this as my moisturizer when my skin is super flaky and dry from retinol and acids. I would repurchase

Must have
After having a peel along with BBL, I was advised that I may want to try this. I'm so glad that I purchased it because as my face started to heal it was itching so bad. This stopped the itching immediately. This product is a MUST have. I also keep at least 1 tube on hand!!

Awesome product!
I came across this item in a YouTube video, it wasn't what they were advertising, but I thought this might work for my eczema. So, I gave it a try. Now, it is an absolute necessity for my eczema, or for any kind of dry irritated skin. I haven't found any other product that not only moisturizes, but actually heals and restores my skin.

GREAT AFTER IN OFFICE PROCEDURES
I have been using this cream with great success, after "in office" laser & peels procedures. Actually, my dermatologist recommended it. It calms & heals the skin fast and helps with scarring. Also great on burns & cuts. I highly recommended!

Best cream ever!
I love this cream so much! I use it on my face and body. It’s deeply moisturizing and not greasy. It does not cause me to break out, which is something that I usually deal with.

Ciclafate and a PDT procedure
The ciclafate is great to use after a Photo Dynamic Therapy (PDT) procedure. I used it on my face and on my chest. Great results!!! Would recommend it to anyone having a dermatology procedure done.

Great Repair Cream
I was looking for a cream that soothed irritated skin from using a retinoid for the first time. This cream made my redness and dryness disappear after using it. It is very moisturizing and does not burn already sensitive skin. I definitely recommend people try this cream if they are looking for something to heal their skin.

Great Product
I initially started using this product post micro-needing treatments and it made such a HUGE difference in my recovery and not having peeling issues. It's also been great for when my skin gets overly dry or from freeze burns from cryotherapy.

Great skin relief
This product is wonderful for skin that's been a bit stressed from anything. It moisturizes just right without being greasy. Plus, a little bit goes a long way. I would highly recommend this cream for helping heal dry skin patches and to soothe and helps heal.

More helpful than what the doctor gave me.
I have a skin issue around my eyes that 3 doctors so far have not been able to heal. The best relief I have gotten is from this product. It has gone into remission with Avene. The entire Avene line has been a Godsend for me. My dermatologist now carries it in his practice, but the prices are better with LovelySkin. The difference in my entire face has people commenting on how good I look.

Love this!
I first started using this product a few months back per my dermatologist’s aftercare instruction following a CO2 laser resurfacing. She said to mix this cream with Aquaphor and apply it to my face to speed healing. It really helped with the itchiness, dryness, swelling, and redness associated with the procedure. And my skin healed very quickly compared to my friends’ - who only used Aquaphor alone. I now have been using cicalfate cream everyday - it helps to relieve residual redness and occasional dryness from the laser. It is a thick moisturizer but not greasy, and I think my skin loves it so much, I’m becoming addicted to it. My daughter also uses it too on her acne prone skin and it does help to fade those old and new red marks. The cream doesn’t break her out either. I just ordered this large 3.3 oz tube from LovelySkin, their price was much lower than what I had paid for at the derm’s office btw. This is one of the products that I’ll repurchase over and over again!

Must have post procedure or very dry skin
This is a very thick moisturizing cream that I use after procedures to help calm and reduce redness and provide extra moisture. It leaves me with a slight white cast which actually helps to hide some of the redness. It sinks in and gets absorbed ~not greasy or oily.

A must-have at all times...
I discovered this moisturizer after having a peel from my dermatologist. Someone suggesting trying it, as my skin was quite raw and red. For years, I used Aquaphor and was always happy with the protection it provided me, while my skin healed after a peel. Yet, it simply can't compare to Avene's Cicalfate. I've been enlightened! This product is designed to specifically heal open sores, wounds and red irritated skin, especially after any medical procedure and it does. It reduced my healing time easily by half plus soothed and moisturized my skin, as the new skin was healing. I now use it on everything, from bug bites to common skin rashes. It soothes and quickly heals and/or clears up any redness, irritation or discomfort. I even use it as a daily moisturizer if I'm really dry (it's super hydrating) or run out of my regular moisturizer. I now always have a tube of this on hand since it helps with so many skin issues while supplying superior moisture at the same time. It's my must-have product at all times now. Thank you Avene!

Great product for sensitive skin
I wouldn't be able to use Retin-A or any type of skin peel product if I didn't have this cream to support my skin after using such strong products. This tames the redness and heals any problems or rosacea flare-ups. Very soothing when my skin is irritated.
