Product details

A tube of Midnight Blue Clearing Water Cream on a wet white table between chamomile flowers and a dollop of light blue gel

Calm + hydrate

A cool, watery blue gel-cream with guaiazulene, madecassoside and niacinamide, for sensitive, blemish-prone skin.

The Clearing Water Cream is the lightweight member of Klairs’ Midnight Blue family. Instead of water it starts with Roman chamomile flower water, and its weightless gel texture feels invigoratingly cool as it goes on. Klairs’ Blue Calming Formula of guaiazulene, madecassoside and peptides soothes, while niacinamide works on a clearer, brighter look, all without stickiness.

Roman chamomile flower water tops the list

Good to know

  • Developed for sensitive skin, non-comedogenic and suitable for acne-prone skin, per Klairs.
  • No fragrance or essential oils on the ingredient list; the chamomile is a flower water.
  • The blue colour comes from guaiazulene, not from added dye.
