What is Care Aqueous Calamine Cream?

Care Aqueous Calamine Cream is a soothing cream which can help to ease sunburn and other mild skin conditions. It helps to reduce inflammation, easing side effects of sunburn, chickenpox, insect bites or stings, and other minor conditions gently and effectively.

 

What is sunburn?

Sunburn happens when your skin is exposed to too much sun, which can damage the skin, leaving it feeling sore and uncomfortable. Sunburn will usually clear up within a week by itself, but many people look for remedies which can make the area less irritated until it heals. When you have a sunburn, you could see the following symptoms:

  • Redness
  • Heat or warmth from the skin
  • Soreness
  • Flaking or peeling the skin
  • Itching

 

How will this cream help to soothe sunburn?

Aqueous Calamine Cream contains two active ingredients which work together to soothe sunburn and other mild skin conditions, these are calamine and zinc oxide. These ingredients work as a mild astringent, cleansing your skin and reducing inflammation, perfect for easing sunburn.
