A Centella soothing cream, like the popular SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Soothing Cream, is a lightweight, hydrating moisturizer focused on calming irritated, sensitive, or damaged skin using Centella Asiatica (Cica) extract, known for its healing properties, often combined with ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and trehalose to strengthen the skin barrier and provide deep, non-sticky moisture. It's great for redness, dryness, post-acne recovery, or irritation from harsh actives like retinol, offering quick absorption and a cooling feel.
