Inflammation causes all sorts of unsightly skin eruptions, like eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and even cystic acne flare-ups. While our diets and environmental aggressors play a role in how reactive our skin can get, sometimes it's the products we’re applying (namely the ingredients within them) that really exacerbate the issue. To steer you in the right direction, consider these anti-inflammatory skincare products to treat irritation.
Beuti Skincare Beauty Sleep Elixir
($65): Formulated with anti-inflammatory camellia seed, chia seed, and sea buckthorn oils, this vitamin- and mineral-rich elixir delivers hydration, neutralizes free radicals, and soothes your skin while you snooze.
MMXV Infinitude ($225): Fermented white truffle, falernum grape extract, pure olive extract, and hyaluronic acid combine to deliver an all-in-one anti-inflammatory treatment that deeply hydrates skin, smoothes and brightens the complexion, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and balances oil production.
Orveda Prebiotic Emulsion ($330): Designed to help preserve the skin’s moisture barrier, this liquid formula boasts a variety of barrier-supporting ingredients, including marine enzyme, hyaluronic acid, and meadow foam seed oil. In addition, natural prebiotics and bio-fermented kombucha black tea work to rejuvenate skin.
Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch Invisible Patch Set ($18): Made with hydrocolloid (a substance that forms a gel in the presence of water), these invisible patches suck the gunk out of inflamed pores, effectively flattening blemishes with wear.

After your nightly cleanse, dot the product, which contains antioxidant-rich ingredients like black cumin seed oil, rosehip oil, and tamanu seed oil, onto blemishes before proceeding with the rest of your routine.
