Is Your Skin Acting Up? These 7 Moisturisers Can Help

By Shammi Mondal 

You may have got some respite from the heatwave, but skin inflammation can happen anytime and anywhere. It could be the after math of exfoliating a little too much one day, or the result of fragrance in your serum that irritated your skin. In such instances your skin needs special care to help it calm down. Here are seven credible, gentle and calming moisturisers that can handle all kinds of skin emergencies.

The Klairs midnight blue calming cream is a global fan favourite. Whether you have oily, dry, or sensitive skin, this one suits them all. Infused with the calming benefits of centella asiatica extract, it heals and repairs skin while soothing any irritation too.

This moisturiser has a runny and slimy texture that might feel weird in the beginning. But once you apply it, you’ll realise how easily the formula seeps into your skin. Infused with the goodness of snail secretion filtrate and hyaluronic acid, this is a solid product for healing any inflammation while deeply moisturising your skin.

It’s tough getting a moisturiser that understands the concerns of your oily skin, especially when your skin has hit a rough patch with inflammation or any kind or irritation. This gentle gel-based formula is rich in antioxidants and soothing ingredients like grape water and organic aloe, which helps to calm down irritated oily skin instantly.

Packed with the goodness of calendula, this moisturiser delivers the most calming effect to your skin. The moisturiser contains a complex of 6 major herbs like chamomile, cornflower, lily and sage that help calm irritated skin, and hyaluronic acid which retains the moisture of your skin.  

The formula of this moisturiser cocoons your skin in a moist yet non-greasy layer of comfort. It has avocado oil combined with chamomile and lavender extracts that are rich in anti-inflammatory properties making this a solid solution to your irritated skin woes.

This one is a little different compared to your conventional moisturiser. For one, it comes in a tube with a precise applicator. And secondly, this moisturiser has a balmy texture. But don’t be confused with its appearance, the formulation is a boon for inflamed skin. From calming down red, irritated patches to healing an itchy scare, the Innisfree Bija Cica Balm Ex does it with finesse.
