Calming Care — Care Methods

What is Calming Care?

Skincare methods to reduce redness and heat sensation in irritated skin

Focus on calming ingredients like cica, panthenol, and aloe while minimizing irritation and incorporating cooling care.

Key characteristics

Soothing care focuses on calming skin that has become temporarily red and hot from outside irritation, friction, strong active ingredients, UV, and the like. In an irritated state, subtle inflammatory reactions and blood vessel dilation readily cause stinging and redness. At this time, reducing further irritation is known to be the key to care.

How to manage

Caring simply with soothing ingredients such as cica (centella extract), panthenol, aloe, and madecassoside, and briefly pausing exfoliation and high-concentration active ingredients, is generally recommended. Pairing it with cooling from a cold towel or a refrigerated soothing mask can help ease the heat. Pat it in gently without rubbing.

Good to know alongside

It is closely related to sensitive skin, cica and panthenol ingredients, and redness and heat symptoms. If irritation is severe or persists and spreads, consulting a dermatologist is recommended.

Everyday care tips

If you feel stinging after using a new active product, switch to a soothing step right away, and cleansing only with lukewarm or cold water to reduce irritation can help.
