Sunburn, wind burn, stress, lack of sleep…or did you overdo that sugar scrub you made from yesterday’s LOVE? Sometimes you need a cream that calms, soothes and gives your skin support when in trouble. Here are 3 of the best.

Sheald Recovery Balm - by Victoria Health
A great present for a hospital visit. It prevents scabbing and itching, minimises scars, helps wounds heal faster and moisturises dry skin.
Not as conventional as a bunch of flowers – but they will thank you in the long run.

Cantella Skin Recovery Salve - by Kiehl's
Aloe Vera, Honey and Tiger Herb are key ingredients in this much loved cream.
Dry patches will vanish, it will calm redness and is gently moisturising.
A brilliant handbag first-aid kit for the coming winter months and pure luxury for your hands too. A MINMAX Favourite.

Skin Recovery Cream - by Avene
We love this brand. It’s not expensive and comes from France – and we all know when it comes to skincare – the French really know their stuff.
If you have been traveling through lots of different climatic zones, or the English weather is really freaking your skin out – this handsome little chap could be your knight in shining armour.
It will soothe and moisturise and help build up your skin’s natural defence barrier – leaving you free to trot off into the sunset.
