Centella and Cica

Centella asiatica, often called cica, is one of the most used plant ingredients in Korean skincare. A centella serum, cream or toner is usually chosen for skin that feels sensitive or stressed and wants calming, soothing care. Madecassoside, one of the compounds from the same plant, often appears on the label too.

This collection gathers centella and cica products from SKIN1004, Centellian24, VT Cosmetics, Madeca 21 and Haruharu Wonder, from light toners and ampoules to creams, cleansers and sheet masks. For a first step, add one centella serum or ampoule after toner, then a cica cream if your skin feels dry or tight. Most centella formulas are light enough to use morning and evening.
