What Is CICA?
The Key Ingredient Behind Soothing Skincare
CICA, short for Centella Asiatica, is a well-known botanical ingredient widely used in Korean skincare. It has been trusted for centuries for its calming and skin-repairing properties, and today it is one of the most popular ingredients in global cosmetic markets.
Centella Asiatica is commonly referred to as “Tiger Grass”, based on the legend that tigers would roll in the plant to heal their wounds. This story reflects CICA’s core benefit: skin recovery and soothing.
