[Disclaimer: This post contains a gifted product for review but all words and opinions are still mine and honest]
I was first introduced to Klairs last year when WishTrend reached out and asked if I wanted to try some of their products. I tried their Soft Airy UV Suncream and I ended up buying one myself after I finished the bottle. I usually find with most big brand suncreams they leave my face oily and the cream is too thick and I feel like my pores are yelling ahhh get this off me!! With summer now coming along in Australia (it's Spring and already in the 30s), I knew two products that would definitely come in handy were the rich moist soothing serum and the midnight blue calming cream and both products came in a 2 step sun-burn care set. As me and my friends know to well, even if I put factor 50 cream on my face I end up looking like Mr Krabs at the end of my trip. I've been using both products for a couple of weeks and as always, here are my thoughts on them.
About Klairs
Klairs is a eco friendly and vegan korean skincare brand that has been around since 2010. They create products that are tailored to different skin types and for different seasons. Their products are especially great for people who are more on the sensitive side as they use natural ingredients that do not irritate the skin.
Morning Blue Calming Cream ($25)
The morning blue calming cream instantly calms and soothes sensitive skin. It includes guaiazulene, a natural component extracted from chamomile oil which has strong calming effects, whilst centella asiatica hydrates the skin and relieves redness.

My Thoughts
First of all this cream is blue so that makes it even more fun to use. It's designed to be an after-sun moisturiser so I don't use this every night. I keep it in the fridge and if I've been out in the sun all day or been sunbathing then I use it. It definitely calms the skin and it feels nice and refreshing. The product comes in 30ml and 60ml sizes so it's a great skincare product to bring with you in your hand luggage!

This hydrating serum helps reduce the surface temperature of your skin which helps cool down sunburnt skin and replenish it's moisture. It's a light serum and it doesn't leave a sticky residue or a thick layer of product on your skin.

My Thoughts
This product absorbs easily into the skin and like I mentioned, I like that it doesn't leave a sticky or thick residue on the skin. It's a clear solution and odourless and leaves the skin feeling pretty matte and clear. It says what it says it does, it hydrates the skin well and it hasn't caused me any irritation or breakouts.
Have you ever tried any korean skincare products or heard of Klairs?
