Your new cream of the crop

This irritated skin spot treatment is designed to hydrate, soothe and protect red, distressed skin anywhere on the body. It also gets to work restoring skin barrier function to protect skin from irritants in order to prevent future flare-ups and meltdowns.

Our emollient moisturizer is a natural alternative or complement to contemporary remedies that can often be taxing on the skin.

Our formula is chock-a-block with lots of GOO-ness we'd like to brag about. The name of the game is skin soothing, so the base of this cream is made with moisturizing Sweet Almond, Olive Oil and Olive Squalane because they’re nourishing, soothing, absorb easily and help return skin to an optimal condition.

We also included top-notch skin-soothers Aloe Vera, Gotu Kola, Sage, Allantoin and Chamomile to bring the chaos under control and help prevent irritation from occurring in the first place. So, finally your skin can calm its farm. Check out some peer reviewed evidence showcasing its ingredient efficacy here.

This is perfect for my daughter who has mild eczema. We love the texture that is not overly thick, which has a trace of oiliness and hydrates the skin well. It spreads and is absorbed well by the skin that becomes soft and moist with the oiliness dissipating after about 5-10 mins, but the softness remains for a long time after. With eczema or dry areas of the skin, my daughter definitely does not have the urge of scratching after applying the cream. - Sylviolin

3 paths to healthier, happier skin

We all know skin is our largest organ, but did you know it makes up about 1/7 of our body weight and has a surface area of up to 2 square meters? Holy cow! Our skin does so much for us, including acting as barrier to the outside world. It has a full-time job of keeping harmful things out and vital things in.

Whether you’re a week old or a proud centenarian, skin troubles can affect us all. Even if you give your skin the royal treatment, you might just be blessed with skin that’s fussy, easily irritated and reacts to everything. Sounds like a few people we know…

There are a number of reasons skin can start feeling sensitive, but lucky for you, we know a thing or two about MOO-dy skin and comforting it when it feels like throwing a tantrum. There are many factors that contribute to the state of your skin, and while everyone is different, there are 3 paths that help lead to better skin days: treatment, prevention and maintenance.

Skip the stress, by avoiding SLS

You often hear that prevention is better than a cure; we agree. While there are many internal factors that play a role in how your skin presents (which we won’t get into here), there are external preventative measures one can take to make sure they aren’t causing unnecessary stress to the skin and it starts with cleansing.

Skin needs to be cleaned but this doesn’t need to be done with harsh detergents that strip the skin of its natural oils. Sulfates (like SLS) do a lot more damage than good, often leaving skin dry, tight and screaming for a scratch. A great way to show your skin how much it means to you is to clean with something natural, gentle and moisturizing. Our Milk Wash fits the bill, just saying.

Make time to moisturize

Keeping skin hydrated is more important than you think. When it's dry, it's much easier for irritants to pass through the skin barrier, causing dermatitis to develop and sensitivities to start. We prefer to defeat dryness and calm catastrophes with nourishing oils and skin-soothing superstars that settle the most stressed skin cell.

So, if you’re serious about your skin's serenity, get some skin in the game and bid adieu to bad skin days. Skip the lackluster lotions made with mineral oils and petroleum jelly, and get your hoofs on something friendlier, like our Soothing MSM Moisturizer. Apply over top of our Skin Calming Cream after a gentle wash, and you'll be well on your way to clearer, calmer, calamity-free skin.

Does Skin Calming Cream go by any other names?

This international wonder goes by different names worldwide, but it's the same GOO-ness inside the tube. In Australia, they call it Eczema & Psoriasis Cream, in the UK it's called Sensitive Skin Balm, and in the USA it's called Irritable Skin Balm.

Is Skin Calming Cream a moisturizer?

Although our Skin Calming Cream is made with moisturizing oils, it’s not specifically a moisturizer that easily spreads all over the body. It only needs to be applied to affected areas of skin and works great in conjunction with a healthy, calming moisturizer. Our Soothing MSM Moisturizer is ideal as it has high concentrations of MSM, a well-known soothing ingredient.

Can I use Skin Calming Cream on my eyelids?

Yes, it can be used on the eyelid, not the eyeball though! It’s gentle enough to be used on the thin skin of the eye area. If you’re using it for the first time, we recommend performing a patch test somewhere else on the body first to ensure no reactions.

What other MooGoo products help irritable skin?

For all skin under the sun, healthy or troubled, we always recommend using our creamy, sulfate-free Milk Wash. This is particularly helpful for stressed-out skin because it won’t add to the problem by stripping it of its natural oils and causing further dryness. It also contains nourishing and beneficial ingredients that keep the skin moisturized, soft and s-MOO-th.

In conjunction with our Milk Wash and Skin Calming Cream, we always recommend using our Soothing MSM Moisturizer to further soothe, pamper and moisturize the skin. Apply the Skin Calming Cream to clean skin and allow it to sink in for 2 minutes. Then apply the Soothing MSM Moisturizer over top and anywhere else you like for some added TLC.

Is Skin Calming Cream made of milk?

We aren’t called MooGoo because our products are made with milk. Putting fresh milk into a skincare product and putting it on a shelf would not end well.

Is Skin Calming Cream suitable for children?

Our Skin Calming Cream is made for the whole family! For all ages, from adults to newborns, and everything in between. It’s even gentle enough to be used on delicate baby skin. If allergies are a concern, as with all natural products, we recommend a patch test before use.

What is the pH level of your Skin Calming Cream?

Our Skin Calming Cream is slightly acidic, balanced to the pH of human skin at 5.5 to 6.0.

I have a sensitive skin; will I react to Skin Calming Cream?

Everybody is different and what works for some will not for others, and some people have allergies to natural ingredients. We believe that natural ingredients are gentler on the skin, and are particularly suitable for those that are red, irritated and itchy. If you're experiencing skin issues or sensitivity, we always recommend doing a patch test before use.

Are your products tested on animals?

The only animals we use for testing are our own bodies. We never test on animals and will not export to countries that do.

How can I avoid drying out my skin?

We've yet to meet anyone that doesn't love a hot shower, but sadly, hot water can seriously dry out your skin as it can strip it of its protective oils and essentially boil it, making it red, raw, and ready to kick up a fuss. So, save your skin and go lukewarm.

How can I show my skin some love?

Amid life’s busyness, it’s important to make time to show your skin some love. We all moisturize our faces daily (we hope!), but why should the face get all the love? Put the phone down and take 5 minutes to rub on some moisturizer all over your body. Once you start doing it regularly, it’ll become a habit just like brushing your teeth, and you’ll notice a mega difference in your skin very quickly. It’s also a great excuse to give yourself a mini massage and practice some mindfulness too. Not that's multi-tasking.

What does "Dermatologically Tested" mean?

You may have seen the term “Dermatologically Tested” on lots of products before, but did you know there’s not an actual definition or regulation for this term? Because that didn’t sit right with us, and because our aim is to make products for people with really sensitive skin, we decided to send a bunch of them off to be tested in an independent lab on 54 people who reported having sensitive skin. The results were given on a scale of 0 to 5 with 0 being no irritation or redness and 5 being a reaction. We’re happy to report that other than one person who had a reaction to the adhesive on the patch and another who found the patches painful to remove, all subjects reported 0 for redness and irritation for all the products we sent for testing. To check out the full report and summary of the test we did on this product, click here.
