How it works
The Madeca Amino Acid Cleansing Foam is a 160ml foam cleanser, used as your first step, morning and evening, on a face already wet with lukewarm water. The active it is built around is Asiaticoside, named nineteenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid and Protease, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Asiaticoside stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the foam cleanser format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the foam cleanser Centellian24 sells in Korea, Asiaticoside and all.

Key actives
Asiaticosideactive
Asiaticoside is one of the four active triterpenes isolated from centella and the most studied of them. Korean formulas name it separately when they want to show which fraction of the plant they standardised. On this foam cleanser's own ingredient list it is named nineteenth.
Madecassic Acidactive
Madecassic Acid is the fourth centella triterpene. A list that names all four is telling you the extract was standardised rather than simply pressed, which is the difference between a cica claim and a cica formula. It is named twentieth on this foam cleanser's list, alongside Asiaticoside.
Asiatic Acidactive
Asiatic Acid is the third of centella's four triterpenes and the aglycone form, meaning it has no attached sugar. It is oil soluble, so it turns up in cica creams and balms more than in watery layers. The panel names it twenty-first on this foam cleanser's list, beside Asiaticoside.
Proteaseactive
Protease is an enzyme that breaks down protein. In a cleanser or peel it loosens the protein bonds holding dead surface cells together, which is a gentler route to smoothness than an acid or a scrub. It is named twenty-ninth on this foam cleanser's list, alongside Asiaticoside.
Centella Asiatica Extractplant extract
Centella Asiatica is the plant behind the whole cica category, sold as gotu kola or Madagascar centella. Its extract is the anchor of Korean formulas built for easily reddened skin, and its work is done by four triterpenes: asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid. It is named second on this foam cleanser's list, alongside Asiaticoside.
Centellian24 Madeca Amino Acid Cleansing Foam
Where does this foam cleanser go in my routine?
As your first step, morning and evening, on a face already wet with lukewarm water. Nothing goes under it: this foam cleanser is the step everything else in the routine lands on top of. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Asiaticoside and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market foam cleanser or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Asiaticoside and all. We match this foam cleanser to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
What else is on the list besides Asiaticoside?
Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid and Protease. The order they are printed in on this foam cleanser's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Asiaticoside sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Centella Asiatica Extract, Pyrus Communis (Pear) Fruit Extract and Malt Extract.

How to use
- Use it on damp skin, morning and evening, as the first step of the routine.
- A short pump worked into a full lather in wet hands before it goes near the face.
- Massage for about a minute, then rinse with lukewarm water rather than hot.
- Twice a day. In the evening follow an oil or balm cleanse with it instead of using it alone over makeup.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this foam cleanser on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Asiaticoside on the list.
- Introduce this foam cleanser on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Asiaticoside rather than to three changes at once.
