Summer is around the corner, beware of the dangers of the sun!

New Zealand is truly the lucky country when it comes to warm summers, but our sun-drenched outdoor lifestyle also brings one of the highest rates of melanoma in the world. UVB and UVA damage can result in sunburn, premature aging of the skin, and the development of skin cancer. As summer is around the corner sensitive skin need to have their solutions to be safely protected from the harmful UV lights.

This summer, sensitive skincare specialists at Avène Dermatological Laboratories have poured their knowledge and expertise into producing high-quality sun protection that offers efficacy and skin tolerance for even the most sensitive skin with four new Sun Care products.

What makes Avène’s Sun Care range stand out?

At Eau Thermale Avène, we believe that we should aim for the right balance for sensitive skin between effectiveness, safety, and tolerance. Avène Sun Care products can help prevent solar keratosis, sun spots, premature skin ageing and may assist in preventing some skin cancers.

Our Sun Cares are systematically tested both for their photoprotective effectiveness but also for their good tolerance once applied to the skin. Thus, all our Sun Care products are evaluated under dermatological, ophthalmological, and paediatric control for childcare to guarantee optimal skin tolerance. We took extreme care on designing paraben-free, alcohol-free formula that embeds maximum protection with a minimum quantity of filters.

Trusted by dermatologists across the world, the Avène sunscreen is recognized for their tolerance and efficacy. With a Very High Protection, the Avène Sunscreen protect the whole family with SPF50+ water resistant 40 minutes.
