Product Description
Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream helps to calm extremely irritated, stressed skin. For oily, acne-prone and sensitive skin types, this cream can also be used to calm sunburnt skin, post-shaving redness and irritation after spot extraction and laser procedures.
The star ingredient in this cream is Guaiazulene, a powerful skin-calming agent extracted from chamomile oil. It's what gives the cream its beautiful blue color. Added to this is Centella, which hydrates skin and relieves irritation and redness. Perfect for daily use, this cream is what you need to keep redness at bay.
I received Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream as part of my 2nd Wishtrend Affiliate collaboration some time back. I get to choose 5 products in return for product reviews and I chose this, as I really like Dear Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Sheet Mask. Unfortunately, the rules for Wishtrend Affiliate has changed recently so I am no longer eligible for it.
Some recent Dear Klairs products which I have emptied were Dear Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Cream, Dear Klairs All-day Airy Mineral Sunscreen and Dear Klairs Midnight Blue Youth Activating Drop.
Packaging, Scent and Texture
Dear Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream is a 60g product, housed in a black minimalistic plastic tube. The baby blue cream looks so alluring, which is due to the main ingredient, Guaiazulene, a botanical ingredient extracted from Chamomile Oil. The original colour is a deep blue but becomes a cool light blue during the mixing process.
The Calming Cream acts more like a treatment product, rather than a moisturiser. It doesn't have any fragrance.
How To Use :
Apply a small amount on the affected area in the morning and evening after using toner and serum.
Tips :
Use partially on your skin when:
1) you are sunburned
2) after shaving
3) on problematic areas or extrusions
Q. Can I use Blue Cream as a daily moisturizer?
A. Applying the cream over the whole face may not provide enough moisturization for dry skin. In that case, we recommend using this cream as a supplement following a moisturizing cream
Performance and Ingredients
The Midnight Blue Calming Cream is a gentle, azulene-rich cream that provides help to rapidly calm and soothe sensitivity.
My initial experience with this product was a bit underwhelming. I first used it as a daily moisturizer, and while it has a thick, rich texture, it didn’t provide the hydration my skin needed. After a week, I noticed subtle flakiness around my chin and philtrum, and a rough texture developing on my nose. Applying it post-exercise on a hot day also led to a stinging sensation on my cheeks—definitely not ideal.
However, after some trial and error, I discovered its true potential. Rather than using it as a daily moisturizer, I now reserve it as a treatment product for irritated or sensitized skin. On days when my skin reacts poorly like to Hur Cleansing Balms or Sigiskin Vitamin C serum—this product acts as a calming rescue as I will apply it all over the face. It soothes red patches effectively, and by the next morning, my skin looks noticeably calmer and less inflamed. I will continue using it as a moisturizer for the next 3 days until all the redness or irritation spots subsided.
That said, it still lacks the hydration I need, so I always pair it with a more hydrating serum or mask to fully support my skin barrier.

Conclusion
To conclude, Dear Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream is best used as a skin-soothing treatment rather than a standalone moisturizer—especially helpful for calming irritation and redness, but not quite enough on its own for dry or dehydrated skin.
