Intensive Care for Very Dry & Itchy Skin
Very dry skin can experience persistent feelings of tightness, discomfort and itching, particularly when the natural skin barrier is weakened.
Avène XeraCalm A.D has been specially developed for:
Very Dry Skin
Itchy Skin
Sensitive Skin
Atopic Eczema-Prone Skin
Its lipid-replenishing formula provides intensive nourishment while helping reinforce the natural skin barrier.
According to Avène, the balm provides up to 48 hours of nourishment.
With I-MODULIA+
At the heart of the XeraCalm A.D formula is I-MODULIA+, an innovative postbiotic active ingredient derived from Aquaphilus dolomiae, a microorganism associated with Avène Thermal Spring Water.
The ingredient forms part of Avène's approach to caring for very dry, itchy and atopic-prone skin.
It helps soothe skin discomfort and itching associated with dryness while supporting the balance of the skin microbiome.
With LIPID:B2 Complex
The formula also features Avène's LIPID:B2 complex, a lipid-rich nourishing complex developed to support the skin barrier.
It helps:
- Nourish very dry skin
- Support the natural skin barrier
- Replenish essential lipids
- Improve skin comfort
- Help reduce recurring episodes of dryness
This combination makes XeraCalm A.D particularly suitable as an everyday emollient for skin that requires richer care.
With Avène Thermal Spring Water
Avène Thermal Spring Water is one of the signature ingredients in the formula.
Known for its soothing properties in sensitive-skin cosmetics, it complements the lipid-replenishing ingredients to help leave dry, sensitive skin feeling calmer and more comfortable.
With Glycerin
The formula contains Glycerin, a well-established humectant that helps attract and retain moisture in the skin.
It provides additional hydration support for skin affected by severe dryness.
With Shea Butter & Plant Oils
XeraCalm A.D also contains nourishing Shea Butter, safflower seed oil and sunflower seed oil.
These emollient ingredients help replenish lipids and leave dry skin feeling:
Softer
Smoother
More Supple
More Comfortable
Helps Soothe Itching Caused by Dryness
One of the main characteristics of XeraCalm A.D is its focus on itchy skin associated with severe dryness and atopic-prone skin.
Avène reports that in its internal user study, regular twice-daily use resulted in 50% less itching and 50% less dryness after one week.
The balm is therefore particularly suitable for people whose dry skin is accompanied by uncomfortable itching and tightness.
Suitable for Atopic Eczema-Prone Skin
XeraCalm A.D is specifically developed for skin prone to atopic eczema / atopic dermatitis.
It acts as an intensive emollient skincare product that moisturises, replenishes lipids, soothes dryness-related itching and supports the natural skin barrier.
Please note: XeraCalm A.D is a dermocosmetic skincare product and not a medicinal treatment for eczema or atopic dermatitis.
Suitable From Birth

The official manufacturer states that the balm can be used:
From Birth
and is suitable for:
- Newborns

It is therefore an excellent option for families looking for one rich moisturising balm suitable for multiple age groups.
