Calming Care for Redness-Prone Skin

Redness can be triggered by heat, sun, spicy food, harsh products or a weakened skin barrier. Calming skincare focuses on soothing the skin and protecting its barrier.

A Calming Routine

  1. Cleanse with a mild, low-foam cleanser and lukewarm water.
  2. Soothe with a calming toner or pad.
  3. Moisturize with a barrier cream containing ceramides or panthenol.
  4. Protect with sunscreen every morning; mineral formulas suit many redness-prone skins.

Ingredients to Look For

Centella asiatica, heartleaf, panthenol, azelaic acid, ceramides, allantoin and green tea.

Triggers to Avoid
