There are hundreds of moisturizers out there specifically made to keep your skin hydrated, healthy, and fade your chronic flush. Redness-relief moisturizers are just like your traditional face cream, but they're seriously amped up with specific calming and anti-inflammatory ingredients to directly target redness. According to New York City-based dermatologist, Dr. Joshua Zeichner, this usually includes items like chamomile and licorice root extract. Thanks to an extra-gentle formula that improves the natural skin barrier over time, Clinique's Redness Solutions Daily Relief Cream earns a spot on our list. From French pharmacy staples to green-tinted, cooling creams, keep scrolling to shop the best moisturizers for redness. 01 of 08 Clinique Redness Solutions Daily Relief Cream Courtesy Buy Now This daily cream is oil-free, so you don't have to worry about breakouts popping up while you're trying to tackle redness.
