Eau Thermale Avène Hydrance UV Rich Hydrating Cream

Avène is a world-renowned dermo-cosmetic brand that centers its identity on the unique properties of Avène Thermal Spring Water. The brand's origin dates back to the discovery of the spring in the Orb Valley in southern France during the 18th century, though the modern commercial brand was formally established and expanded in the late 20th century.

Today, Avène remains deeply rooted in its French heritage, with the vast majority of its production occurring in a specialized facility located near the actual thermal spring in Avène-les-Bains. This ensures the purity and efficacy of the thermal water used in products like the Hydrance Rich Hydrating Cream. The brand is owned by Pierre Fabre Laboratories, a massive French pharmaceutical and cosmetic group that is uniquely structured, being majority-owned by a government-recognized public-interest foundation, the Pierre Fabre Foundation.
