Avene skincare products were developed from the ancient Saint Odile Springs in Avene located in the South West of France. The Avene thermal spring water was found to contain natural and pure healing properties, developers built upon this discovery and later introduced the Avene Thermal Hydrotherapy Center. In 1975 Pierre Fabre Laboratories, the second largest pharmaceutical company in France, purchased the Avene Thermal Hydrotherapy center and in 1989 introduced the world to a full skin care line of products using the healing properties of Avene spring water.

Avene thermal spring water is used as a base for all Avene skin care products and the source of the thermal spring water is connected directly to the manufacturing plant ensuring the purest and freshest thermal spring water. In fact, the first time the thermal spring water sees light is when the finished product touches the skin.
