Retain plant crystals are a safe and easy-to-use soil additive made out of water-absorbing ingredients (cross-linked polyacrylate, bentonite clay, lava rock, and silicates) that absorb up to 40x its own weight in water. 50 lbs of retain can hold up to 250 gallons of water. It increases the water-holding capacity of soil by up to 60%, helping to prevent waterlogging and releasing the water to plants, minimizing evaporation, especially in hanging baskets prone to drying out.

What Makes Retain Different Than Other Water Retention Crystals: In a word... speed. Most water retention beads/crystals soak up water very quickly. You can watch them puff up quickly as they absorb water. They are also unacceptably fast in letting go of the water. Retain takes it sweet time soaking up water, and correspondingly, is very slow to let it go... providing more water, longer, for roots, not evaporation.

Retain the Water in your Soil

Perfect for:

  • Lawns
  • Garden
  • Potting Soil
  • Hanging Baskets
  • Potted House Plants, more

Retain plant water absorption crystals can be used in countless applications from reducing the watering frequency for house plants and keeping plants watered on vacation, to reducing water bills for lawn, garden, farm, landscape, to golf courses. Retain water crystals conserve water, especially in regions prone to heat and drought.

For containers (pots, planters, baskets, seed starts, and house plants) use 1 tablespoon of retain crystals to every 3 cups of soil. For lawn, farm, and garden applications use 5 cups of retain water crystals for each square yard. Simply mix retain evenly into dry soil or another growing medium. Water repeatedly activates the superabsorbent polymers.

About Retain Plant Water Absorption Crystals

  • Releases water slowly to plants, minimizing the watering frequency and keeping plants alive on vacation. The eco-friendly mix of time-released super absorbent polymers, volcanic rock flour, and clay mineral
  • Retain soil crystals additive is simple, yet essential, to anything from helping commercial landscapers conserve local runoff or simply keeping a favorite houseplant watered while on vacation. Super absorbent polymers gradually and evenly release water and minerals into the soil to reduce plant stress during prolonged heat and drought. Perfect for plants and outdoor starts requiring full sun conditions.
  • Retain Crystals Promote sustainable local water conservation for regions prone to heat and drought - Uniform moisture throughout the soil promotes deeper root penetration for healthier and more tolerant plants"encouraging hardier stalks, greens, blooms, reseeding, and fruit production.
  • Retain is essential for beginner hobbyists, busy enthusiasts, seasoned gardeners, and veteran farmers looking to minimize water consumption without compromising quality or productivity - Fortifies soil to absorb up to 50 - 60% more local runoff and nutrients than untreated soil. Ideal for hanging baskets and house plants.
  • Super absorbent polymers help prevent waterlogging from excessive rain and moisture and even benefit from repeated watering to fully charge polymers for extended periods of drought - Retains 40x weight in water to minimize wasteful summer watering, irrigation, and sprinkler use.
  • Retain is derived from polyacrylate, lava rock, bentonite, and silicates:
    • Cross-linked Polyacrylate (23%)
    • Bentonite (30%)
    • Lava Rock (23%)
    • Silicates (10%)
    • Water (14%)

Saved my skin barrier!!
I rarely write reviews, but this product truly deserves it. I have sensitive, dry skin with mild to moderate rosacea that became even more fragile after chemotherapy. While trying to repair my skin barrier, I overdid it with actives and completely wrecked my skin — it was red, raw, burning, and peeling. I turned to ChatGPT for help, and this Avene Cicalfate+ was one of the top recommendations. I started using it about three weeks ago, and wow — the difference is incredible! My skin has healed beautifully. The redness is dramatically reduced, the irritation is gone, and my skin feels soft, smooth, and calm again. The texture is soft and luxurious without being sticky. I love that there’s no noticeable scent, which is perfect for sensitive skin. It arrived well packaged and intact. For the results it delivers, I consider it an amazing value and will absolutely repurchase again and again. If you’re on the fence about trying this, go for it — it truly rescued and revived my skin barrier. This is now a permanent part of my routine and 100% a holy grail product for me!

Hydrating and Powerful Barrier Repair Serum!💧
This serum has been life-changing in calming and restoring my skin barrier. It absorbs quickly, feels lightweight, and instantly soothes irritation without feeling greasy. I’ve noticed my skin looks healthier and more balanced after just a few uses. It’s gentle enough for sensitive skin and works especially well when my skin barrier feels compromised. It is also fragrance-free, which I always appreciate! Trust me, it’s well worth the money!

Works as created.
Have been using for a few weeks and have noticed 15% improvement in skin and issues. I did notice a difference in the first 24 hours as advertised. It is suggested need a full month I think to see the true results. At 50 I have pre menopausal skin issues- the redness & inflammation, acne, tightness and sensitivity. It is helping in addition to the other Avene skin products that come in the trial box for sensitive or SOS skin box trial size I think ot is called. This has made a difference. It is easy to apply. I use morning and night. It is different from the Cicalfate + Cream. I use that also as needed. I am happy and recommend it. The price is higher than what I spend. But I wanted to try it to see of i need more than just what was in the Avene sensitive skin trial size box they have. My skin is really red and irritated so the $40 for the bottle is was willing to try because it's painful on my face.

Okay serum, not as good as the cream though
I am obsessed with the cream version of this so I thought I’d give this a try. The dropper top allows for easy application. The formula is light and non greasy and absorbs easily. No harsh fragrances. I would use it when I had eczema flares on my face and feel like it didn’t work near as well in helping with skin irritation as the cream does. As of now I don’t use it as part of my regular skin care. Do I think it’s a bad product? No, but it didn’t really work wonders for me. Not sure I would purchase again.
