Centella asiatica, also known as cica, has long been used in Korean skincare for its calming, barrier-supporting properties. It contains compounds that support the skin’s natural repair processes, making it a common pick for sensitive or reactive skin.

Look for it in moisturizers and recovery creams after exfoliating treatments, when the skin barrier needs extra support. Paired with a simple, fragrance-light routine, centella-based products can help reduce visible redness and improve overall comfort.
