Unless the skin is badly broken/cut (which it doesn't sound like it is) something containing witch hazel - or even witch hazel (the liquid) itself will soothe it.
We use it at college if someone has an allergic reaction to something, or after an eyebrow pluck or wax to calm the skin.
sounds ridiculous, but bonjela (baby teething gel) can be really good for taking the edge off soreness.
