German term or phrase: glätten, glättend
Estoy traduciendo un texto sobre una línea de tratamientos faciales y corporales. "glätten" y "glättend" salen muchas veces y en un principio las había traducido como calmar (la piel) o calmante. Ahora me surgen las dudas sobre si más bien se referirá a alisar la piel. Os pongo unos cuanto ejemplos, a ver que opináis. Muchas Gracias!!!!

- Besänftigend, abschwellend, ausgleichend, glättend und erfrischend.

- Reichhaltige, intensiv glättende und feuchtigkeitsspendende 24-Stunden-Pflege

- Feuchtigkeitsspender glätten die Haut und schützen vor dem Austrocknen. Balsam Shower Foam ist alkali-, seifen- und farbstofffrei und optimal auf den Säureschutzmantel der Haut eingestellt

- Pflegende natürliche Öle glätten die Haut

Explanation:
En su defecto, optaría por una redacción que dijera algo como

"deja la piel suave y tersa" que es lo que comúnmente se escucha para este tipo de productos.

"calmar" la piel no me suena.
Con todo respeto, "alisar" me suena a "planchar" las arrugas.
Por eso, no lo utilizaría ni lo recomendaría.
