Product details
Calm + soothe
A sky-blue calming cream with chamomile-derived guaiazulene and centella, for skin that’s red, irritated or sun-stressed.
Klairs’ Midnight Blue cream gets its colour from guaiazulene, a soothing compound from chamomile oil that starts out a deep, almost purple blue and turns a cool light blue as the cream is mixed. Centella and ceramide back it up, in a gentle formula with oils chosen not to clog pores, suitable for sensitive and oily, acne-prone skin.

How to use
The last step of your routine
- 1
Finish your routine
Use it as the final step, after your toner and serums.
- 2
Scoop
Take a small amount of the pale blue cream from the jar.
- 3
Target
Apply it to areas that feel sensitive or irritated, or over the whole face.
- 4
Tap in
Gently tap it in until it absorbs. On dehydrated, oily skin, Klairs suggests layering it over a moisturizer.
Cool, calm and comfortable
Keep it close for the days skin runs hot and red: after a day outdoors, a shave or a new treatment.
Good to know
- Klairs recommends it after irritating treatments or procedures, after long hours in the sun, and after shaving or extractions.
- No fragrance or essential oils on the ingredient list; the chamomile is an extract.
- The blue colour comes from guaiazulene, not from added dye.
- This is the 30 mL jar; the same cream is also sold in tubes.
