Avène Hydrance Aqua Gel Face Moisturizer - 1.7 fl oz

This product was recommended to me for my sensitive skin/ roscea however it has irritated my skin. I have used different gel creams and non of them had a fragrance nor irritated my skin like this......not sure why there in a fragrance added to a product designed for sensitive skin....I would not recommend for sensitive skin

This gel is amazing! I have always struggled with creams, but this gel keeps my skin hydrated, plump, and fresh. There has been a significant difference in my skin. I can’t stop looking in the mirror. While the fragrance is pleasant, it does irritate my sensitive skin a bit (and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5).

Have been cherishing a sample I received. It is like my best friend right now I love how it lasts all day. And the smell is divine🌸

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Light, soothing, and super hydrating—this gel-cream is a game-changer for sensitive or dehydrated skin. It absorbs quickly, doesn’t feel greasy, and works great as a daily moisturizer or overnight mask. Perfect for combo to oily skin, though very dry types might need something richer. A clean, gentle staple.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the avene hydrance aqua gel to try and review from influenter and this is my honest review. As a combination skin girly, I was happy to t try this because I find most face cream too oily and some not moisturing enough. I liked the texture of this gel, it is light weight, no fragrance and hydrating. However, I don’t find it as moisturising enough especially in the days where it felt really windy and dry. However I will recommend. It is lovely.

I wanted to love this, and thought it would help improve overall moisture for my combination, acne-prone skin. But I’ve used it twice since purchasing, and both times the skin around my eyes has swelled up, turning red and raw. I don’t think I’ll be able to use this product 😕 it’s also a shame there’s a fragrance, it’s stronger than expected and a potential irritant.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was lucky to get my hands on this beauty. My skin has been left feeling really hydrated and smooth since using this product. Packaging is great stands out and has all the information needed on the back of it. Good ingredients for your skin. Nice subtle scent.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is multi-propose moisturiser, which i really really like it as it leaves my skin very smooth, bright, and shiny. I have noticed the difference in my skin. Looks brighter and more smooth.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You slather this on and suddenly your skin looks like you drank 3 litres of water and slept 9 hours. Are you manifesting dewy skin? No need. Just use this and watch the compliments roll in. The consistency is amazing and gives that cooling effect while applying.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Avène Hydrance Aqua Gel for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed. It’s incredibly lightweight and absorbs quickly, without leaving any greasy or sticky residue. It feels so gentle and soothing on the skin—perfect for sensitive skin types like mine. My face feels hydrated and refreshed all day. Definitely a great choice if you're looking for a hydrating gel that’s easy on the skin and doesn’t clog pores. The scent of the cream is lovely and pleasant and the packaging is very professional and sophisticated.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brightening gel, visible results too. The gel felt lovely on my skin didn’t feel greasy or oily like some gels can. My skin looks and feels more hydrated after using this

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loving the avena aqua gel. It's very hydrating for my face, has a nice soft gel yet creamy texture and milky in colour! The scent is very pleasing too, lovely and fresh. I tend to get dry skin more in the winter/cold months and i use this across my t-zone area along with neck area too, it leaves my skin feeling soft, smooth and moisturised, a llittle goes a long way so don't be tempted to use more than needed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was super pleased with this product. It feels super hydrating! My skins never felt more hydrated. Doesn’t leave a sticky finish at all. I really enjoy this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was looking forward to trying this as I heard a lot of good reviews about it. Gel itself should be lightweight, but I was a bit disappointed as it was making my skin sticky. It does hydrate the skin, but I didn't like the feeling. I checked the ingredients, and it contains BHT, which is restricted in Europe. I guess it contains a safe amount, but it still repels me from using it on a daily basis. Also, it is way too much perfume, and it smells like cheap cream.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you’re looking for a moisturizer that feels like a splash of water on your skin, Avène Hydrance Aqua-Gel might be your new go-to. This lightweight, gel-cream hybrid is designed to deeply hydrate without feeling greasy or heavy—perfect for normal to combination skin, especially in warmer or humid climates. Texture & Absorption The texture is smooth and bouncy, almost like a water-based jelly. It absorbs quickly and leaves your skin feeling plump and refreshed. There’s no sticky residue, and makeup layers beautifully on top of it. Performance Formulated with Avène’s signature thermal spring water, it soothes irritation and strengthens the skin barrier over time. It’s great for calming redness and delivering long-lasting hydration. You can use it as a daily moisturizer, a hydrating mask, or even as an overnight treatment. Scent Light and clean, not overpowering at all—ideal if you’re sensitive to strong fragrances.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was such a brilliant product, it felt so lovely on my skin. Feel like a real staple! The smell is lovely and the packaging feels much more expensive than it is.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very soft and silky. Feels lovely and light on your skin. Simple slightly floral scent. Elegant packaging. However still have slightly dry patch that I can’t budge on my forehead.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A lovely hydrating moisturiser, suitable for oily and combination skin. With its gel like texture, it feels cooling and refreshing, perfect for the summer months. Smells quite strongly of baby powder, so may not be suitable for people with skin sensitivity to fragrance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved the Avène hydrance aqua gel to review, im very lucky to recieve this, as was amazing, it left My skin feeling like silk, This is a great product, I always had the problem that even after applying a lot of cream my skin quickly became dry and dull, now it is more radiant, looks healthier and the hydration lasts all day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love, love, love this product! It’s become a staple in my daily routine. The water like gel consistency is amazing and soaks straight into the skin leaving no stickiness. Leaves my skin hydrate all day. Nothing bad to say about it and will definitely be buying more.
