soothing
Centella asiatica is the ingredient behind the 'cica' trend in K-beauty, and for once the hype is largely justified. With solid clinical evidence for wound healing, anti-inflammatory activity, and collagen synthesis support, it's one of the best-studied botanical ingredients in dermatology.
humectant
The rare botanical with genuine research behind the hype — medical-grade manuka is FDA-cleared for wound dressings, which tells you the antibacterial claim isn't just marketing.
