Often characterized by dryness and redness, sensitive skin may not always show visible signs of sensitivity but may still have limited tolerance to everyday products. Sensitive skin types often have a compromised skin barrier which can lead to dryness and susceptibility to external conditions like the sun, cold temperatures, and pollution. Using a Cica-Cream can help comfort skin while also helping to restore and strengthen skin’s barrier.

Centella Asiatica is a perennial plant commonly found in tropical and subtropical areas in Asia and Southern Africa. Centella Asiatica flourishes in swampy and shady areas and cannot be cultivated so it is always harvested in the wild. In China, it is also known as “Gota Kolu” and is called one of the “miracle elixirs of life.” Centella Asiatica is known to have healing properties – legend even has it that tigers in Asia have been seen rubbing their wounds in this herb earning it the name of “tiger herb” or “tiger grass.”

Inspired by the traditional uses of Cica-Creams, our chemists drew from our expertise in sensitive skin and designed a formula that helps soothe and care for skin while also helping to strengthen and fortify skin’s barrier.

Hypoallergenic
Our Cica-Cream is expertly formulated to be hypoallergenic, meaning it is unlikely to cause skin sensitivity. While it is impossible to guarantee that a formula will never cause sensitivity, we carefully selected ingredients and designed a stringent testing protocol to confirm that our Cica-Cream is efficacious, yet gentle. We tested our formula around the world on over 300 people with 100% self-reported sensitive skin to ensure that our Cica-Cream is allergen-free.

Clinically-Tested
Demonstrated to strengthen and protect skin’s barrier, this formula was clinically-tested to help ensure its efficacy. Our Cica-Cream is clinically-demonstrated to help repair the moisture barrier of sensitive skin.*

Key Ingredients
With our experience with Centella Asiatica in other skincare formulas, we infused our Cica-Cream with Madecassoside, a component of Centella Asiatica, along with D-Panthenol.

• Madecassoside
  One of the most potent components of the Centella Asiatica plant, Madecassoside is extracted, isolated and purified to form a concentrated extract. To produce Madecassoside, four times the amount of Centella Asiatica leaves are required as is needed to produce Centella Asiatica Extract. Within our formula, Madecassoside is known to help improve skin’s texture while helping soothe and relieve discomfort.
• D-Panthenol
  We also infuse our Cica-Cream with D-Panthenol, also known as Vitamin B3. Within our formula, it helps reinforce the skin barrier and is also known to help dry skin increase its water-holding capacity.
