Users have reported seeing a significant reduction in redness and sensitivity using the Kalme cream

Though a year-round skin problem, sun exposure remains one of the most reported triggers of redness. 

However, some sufferers report that many SPFs on the market can leave their skin sensitised and flared. That’s where the Kalme SPF30 Day Defence comes in.

Coined a ‘game-changer’ for rosacea, redness and sensitivity-prone skin types, the Kalme SPF30 Day Defence is a daily moisturiser and mineral sun protection that works to shield against UV-related flare-ups while remaining gentle enough for everyday use.

‘After years of trial and error with rosacea products this is hands-down the most gentle and non-irritating skincare I've used', wrote one five-star reviewer. ‘Delivers moisturising, calming, SPF 40, anti-redness and anti-inflammation.’

Moisturising and soothing on the skin while delivering impressive SPF protection, the face cream has been formulated with natural rice bran which is packed with vitamins, antioxidants and fatty acids set to help sooth inflammation and work to strengthen delicate and sensitive skin.

But what sets this Kalme cream apart is its inclusion of a patented caper extract called Derma Sensitive®, which has been clinically proven to help reduce skin redness and sensitivity.

Proven in clinical trials to reduce skin redness and sensitivity by up to 70 per cent, the Daily Defence is proving a popular option for skin prone to flushing and visible redness.

 Helps to calm and support the skin barrier throughout the day, it could be the answer to lessening the appearance of redness and irritation without any white cast.

This is also largely thanks to the Zinc Oxide, a natural mineral known for its soothing and calming properties, which helps to reduce skin irritation and support healthier-looking skin.

Free from parabens, perfumes, SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) and MI (Methylisothiazolinone), it’s an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin. 

‘I love this cream. My skin is usually so painful and red during the colder months but this has been a complete game changer.’ Raved one impressed five-star reviewer.

‘I no longer have to cake my red cheeks with foundation to disguise my red skin - it's calmed right down, and I love that I don't have to worry about an additional SPF. Definitely recommend.’

Another added: ‘After years of suffering this has actually worked. I have probably tried 15 to 20 other products with no joy so this is a thanks as much as anything and hope it works for anyone buying like it did me.’
