Final Verdict:
Avene has some very good products for acne prone skin.I found this product when I was exploring their products.I bought it after reading it was glycolic acid and salicylic acid which is a quite rare combo of ingredients.The mask is really good one.The consistency is bit granular so it acts a scrub too.It totally helps acne prone skin.Major drawback is its cost.Proactiv Refining Sulphur Mask still is #1 for me,you can check out the review here.
