Key actives
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. The name on the box points at it, and it is named tenth on this lotion's own ingredient list.
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is named fourteenth on this lotion's list, alongside Centella Asiatica Extract.
Beta-Glucanpolysaccharide
Beta-Glucan is a polysaccharide from oats or yeast. It holds a large amount of water, forms a soothing film, and is one of the ingredients formulators reach for in products aimed at reactive skin. The panel names it thirteenth on this lotion's list, beside Centella Asiatica Extract.
Hexyldecyl Ethylhexanoateemollient
A branched ester emollient. It spreads quickly, feels dry rather than rich, and is used to soften the heaviness of thicker oils in a blend. It is named third on this lotion's list, alongside Centella Asiatica Extract.
Hydrogenated Polydeceneemollient
Hydrogenated Polydecene is a synthetic hydrocarbon emollient used in place of mineral oil. It is stable, has no scent, and gives a cushioned slip without oxidising. It is named fifth on this lotion's list, alongside Centella Asiatica Extract.
How to use
- Pat a small amount into clean, toned skin, morning and night, before a heavier cream if you use one.
Where does this lotion go in my routine?
As the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. Anything thinner than a lotion goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. 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 Centella Asiatica Extract and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market lotion or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Centella Asiatica Extract and all. We match this lotion 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 Centella Asiatica Extract?
Niacinamide, Beta-Glucan and Hexyldecyl Ethylhexanoate. The order they are printed in on this lotion's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Centella Asiatica Extract sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Hydrogenated Polydecene, Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate and Triethylhexanoin.

How it works
The Advanced Cica Emulsion is a 150ml lotion, used as the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. The plant extract it is built around is Centella Asiatica Extract, named tenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Niacinamide, Beta-Glucan and Hexyldecyl Ethylhexanoate, so the plant extract is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Centella Asiatica Extract stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the lotion format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the lotion Dr.Belmeur sells in Korea, Centella Asiatica Extract and all.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on the inner arm before first full-face use if trying this specific formula for the first time.
- Introduce one new step at a time when adding it to an existing routine, so any reaction is easy to trace.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
