Minimum number of ingredients selected for their gentleness – 98% of ingredients from natural origin Rest assured it’s just a sealed dispenser to prevent the product from oxidizing and going bad. All you have to do is squeeze hard enough and the product will come out. It’s definitely a unique feature I can’t say I’ve seen before. All in all, I think this is a decent product but personally recommend the Avene Extreme Tolerance Emulsion over this. It has all the same beneficial ingredients MINUS the preservatives and esters, which could prove problematic to those with fungal sensitives, or hyper-sensitive skin.

Sensitive scale, 25 subjects, results observed immediately after application of Tolérance Control Cream. This an ester that’s used to emulsify, that is, bind water and oil in the formula. It’s a very common emulsifier found in many products, and is generally well-tolerated. However, if you’re prone to adult acne or have sensitivities to yeast malassezia, it might cause your skin to act up.

For this reason, I think the Avene Extreme Tolerance Emulsion is better suited for all skin types, and what people with extremely sensitive skin are actually looking for! This cosmetic contains no parabens, preservatives or alcohol. In addition, this cream is 100% fragrance free. Avène Skincare

While it is true that industrial grade mineral oil contains carcinogenic components (so-calledpolycyclic compounds), these are completely removed from cosmetic and food grade mineral oil and there is no scientific data showing that the pure, cosmetic grade version is carcinogenic. Hopefully you found this review helpful! And I’m sorry if I made you less excited about trying this product. :/ Iv been using this cream for a week along side my tretinoin and my skin has remain calm, there's no irritation, no redness and most importantly it doesn't clog my pores! Rapidly soothes irritations, nourishes and moisturises, helping restore the skin’s barrier to reduce skin’s reactivity to external environmental factors. The very gentle formula contains the minimum number of ingredients for better tolerance. I would recommend this product to anyone using tretinoin/retinol or with a broken skin barrier and needing skin repair! Due to my skin been very dry I find myself apply this cream about 3 times during the day to keep my skin moist. #AvèneReview
