I have not been using this very long (about 2 weeks) and I don't use it twice a day - I use Avène's Cleanance treatment during the day - this would be way too greasy under make-up. I've noticed a slight lightening in my freckles, and it certainly did not have any ill effects on my skin (no breakout, no bad reaction, etc). I am really curious though why Avène hasn't included this on their website.. is it just an Asian thing? I wish there were more information about it online.

I'm entering this into the database first because I haven't come across any reviews for this here on MUA, and this range is not on the avene french/us site. So I'm interested if anyone has tried this out. I will review each product individually once I've tried it out. For now this is a neutral rating

This is a description of the Complete Avene Sensitive White (SW) Range (extracted from the brochure I received)
