Key actives
2Glycerin
Glycerin is the workhorse humectant of Korean skincare, pulling and holding water at the skin's surface to keep the finish from feeling dry.
71,2-Hexanediol
1,2-Hexanediol is a multifunctional solvent and preservative-boosting ingredient, part of how this formula stays stable without relying on a heavier preservative load.
8Niacinamide
Niacinamide supports an even-looking tone and a smoother surface texture, and sits high enough on this list to be a working part of the formula rather than a trace addition.
9Panthenol
Panthenol is provitamin B5, included to soften the skin feel and calm the surface after cleansing or a wash-off step.
11Butylene Glycol
Butylene Glycol is a humectant and solvent that keeps the texture spreadable and helps the other actives stay dissolved evenly through the formula.

What is Cica Peptite Ampoule used for?
It is an ampoule from Dr.Belmeur, a concentrated, slightly denser liquid than a serum. Dr.Belmeur is the sensitive-skin arm of CNP, a Korean line formulated for reactive, easily irritated complexions. It is meant to be used as one step in a routine rather than a stand-alone treatment, and it ships here in the same Korean-market formula sold at retail in Seoul.
How do I use Cica Peptite Ampoule?
Press a small amount into clean, toned skin, morning and night, before your moisturizer. Give it a few uses before judging the result, since a single application rarely shows the full effect an ampoule is built to deliver over a routine.
Does this contain Glycerin?
Yes, Glycerin appears on the manufacturer ingredient list for this exact product and size. Glycerin is the workhorse humectant of Korean skincare, pulling and holding water at the skin's surface to keep the finish from feeling dry.
How is this different from buying Dr.Belmeur on Amazon or a general beauty marketplace?
The difference is the formula itself: this is what Dr.Belmeur sells at retail in Seoul, not a substitute made for a different market.
Can I use this with other actives in my routine?
Yes, an ampoule like this is built to sit alongside the rest of a layered routine rather than replace it. Introduce it on its own for the first few uses so that if anything in your routine causes a reaction, this step is easy to rule in or out.

42 of 46 explained
- Purified Water solvent
- Water is the base almost every serum, toner and cream is built on. It dissolves the water-loving ingredients and sets how light the finished texture feels. On an INCI list it is usually first, which only means it is the largest single ingredient by weight.
- Glycerin humectant
- Glycerin is the most used humectant in skincare. It draws water into the outer layer of skin and holds it there, and it is one of the very few ingredients whose hydrating effect is settled science rather than marketing. Higher amounts feel tacky, which is why it is usually blended.
- Propanediol humectant
- Propanediol is a plant-derived glycol used in place of propylene glycol. It hydrates, carries actives into solution, and gives a lighter, less sticky slip than glycerin at the same strength.
- Cyclohexasiloxane silicone
- Cyclohexasiloxane is a volatile silicone used for a light, fast-spreading feel that leaves nothing behind.
- 2,3-Butanediol humectant
- 2,3-Butanediol is a fermentation-derived glycol. It hydrates and, like the other longer glycols, makes a formula harder for microbes to grow in.
- Sorbitol humectant
- Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol used as a humectant. It hydrates like glycerin with a smoother, less sticky finish, and it adds a little body to watery textures.
- 1,2-Hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- Niacinamide active
- Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is used at roughly 2 to 5 percent for the look of uneven tone and visible pores, and it is water soluble, stable and comfortable beside almost every other active, which is why it turns up in so many lists.
- Panthenol humectant
- Panthenol is pro-vitamin B5: skin converts it to pantothenic acid. It is a humectant that holds water and leaves skin feeling soft and less tight, and it is one of the ingredients formulators reach for when a formula also contains something harsh.
- Hydrogenated Polyisobutene emollient
- Hydrogenated Polyisobutene is a stabilised synthetic hydrocarbon used in place of mineral oil. It is an emollient that leaves a smooth, cushioned film.
- Butylene Glycol humectant
- Butylene Glycol is a small glycol that does two jobs at once: it holds water in the top layer of skin and it dissolves plant extracts and actives that plain water cannot. It also thins a formula, which is why watery Korean essences lean on it.
- Betaine humectant
- Betaine is a sugar-beet-derived humectant that cells use to hold water. In a formula it hydrates and takes the edge off cleansers and acids, which is why it often appears alongside them.
30 more explained
- Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer thickener
- This is a carbomer relative with fatty side chains, so it thickens and stabilises an emulsion at the same time. It gives a light gel-cream body rather than a heavy one.
- Silica absorbent
- Silica is finely milled mineral, essentially very pure sand. It absorbs oil, stops powders clumping and soft-focuses the look of pores and fine lines.
- Tromethamine pH adjuster
- Tromethamine neutralises acidic thickeners such as carbomer so they gel, and holds a formula near skin-friendly pH. It is used at a fraction of a percent.
- Xylitol humectant
- Xylitol is a sugar alcohol humectant. It holds water in the outer layer of skin and is often paired with anhydroxylitol and xylitylglucoside as a hydration trio.
- Diphenylsiloxy Phenyl Trimethicone silicone
- Diphenylsiloxy Phenyl Trimethicone is a high-shine silicone used where a formula needs gloss without stickiness.
- Hydroxyethylcellulose thickener
- Hydroxyethylcellulose is a cellulose thickener that builds a clear, smooth gel and holds the rest of the formula in suspension.
- Madecassoside active
- Madecassoside is the centella triterpene most associated with the look of redness, and the one brands lead with in cica products. It is water soluble and stable, so it appears in essences as readily as in creams.
- Allantoin active
- Allantoin is a comfrey-derived compound used to condition skin and soften the outer layer so it feels smoother. It is one of the standard additions to a formula built for easily irritated skin.
- Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate active
- Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is a water-soluble salt derived from licorice root. It is the licorice fraction Korean formulas use for the look of redness, and it is far more stable in water than the whole extract.
- Adenosine active
- Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated.
- Polyglyceryl-10 Oleate emulsifier
- Polyglyceryl-10 Oleate is a mild sugar-derived emulsifier and solubiliser used where a formula must stay clear.
- Dimethicone/Phenyl Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer silicone
- A cross linked silicone elastomer, supplied as a soft gel that breaks down under pressure. It fills the look of fine surface texture and gives the powdery, cushioned slip a primer has.
- Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract plant 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.
- Beta-Glucan polysaccharide
- 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.
- Caprylyl Glycol preservative booster
- Caprylyl Glycol is a glycol that conditions skin and, more importantly, strengthens a preservative system so less of the traditional preservative is needed. It appears in most modern formulas built without parabens.
- Asiaticoside active
- 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.
- Madecassic Acid active
- 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.
- Asiatic Acid active
- 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.
- Glycine amino acid
- Glycine is the smallest amino acid and one of the free amino acids skin holds to keep water in the outer layer. In a formula it is a humectant and a mild buffer.
- Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 peptide
- Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is a six-amino-acid peptide used for the look of expression lines, particularly around the eyes. It is the peptide sold under the name Argireline and is water soluble and stable.
- Serine amino acid
- Serine is one of the most abundant free amino acids in the outer layer of skin, where it helps hold water. Added to a formula it is a humectant.
- Sodium PCA humectant
- Sodium PCA is one of the substances skin makes for itself to hold water, part of what dermatology calls the natural moisturising factor. Added to a formula it is a strong humectant that suits skin that dehydrates quickly.
- Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9 peptide
- Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9 is a four-amino-acid peptide used for the look of firmness and density. It is most often supplied alongside acetyl tetrapeptide-11.
- Copper Tripeptide-1 peptide
- Copper Tripeptide-1 is three amino acids bound to a copper ion, and the classic firming peptide in cosmetic chemistry. It is blue in solution, which is often why a serum carrying it is tinted, and it is used for the look of firmness and fine lines.
- Hydroxyethyl Urea humectant
- Hydroxyethyl Urea is a humectant that holds a lot of water for its size and stays comfortable at high levels. It is used where a formula needs to feel deeply hydrating without oil.
- Arginine amino acid
- Arginine is an amino acid that does two jobs here: it holds water in the outer layer of skin, and it neutralises acidic gelling agents, which is why it often stands in for a synthetic pH adjuster.
- Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil fragrance component
- Bergamot Fruit Oil is a citrus essential oil and the top note of eau de cologne. It scents a formula; citrus oils are the aromatic class most likely to bother reactive skin.
- Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil fragrance component
- Lavender Oil is an essential oil carrying linalool and linalyl acetate. It scents a formula, and linalool is one of the fragrance components EU labelling requires to be named separately.
- Linalool fragrance component
- Linalool is a floral aromatic found in lavender, bergamot and coriander. It is one of the 26 fragrance components EU labelling requires to be declared by name.
- Limonene fragrance component
- Limonene is the citrus-peel aromatic. It appears here because EU labelling requires 26 fragrance components to be named individually rather than hidden inside "fragrance", and it is one of them.

How it works
Dr.Belmeur Cica Peptite Ampoule names Glycerin, 1,2-Hexanediol, Niacinamide on its own manufacturer ingredient list, and this is what each is doing in the formula. Glycerin is the workhorse humectant of Korean skincare, pulling and holding water at the skin's surface to keep the finish from feeling dry. 1,2-Hexanediol is a multifunctional solvent and preservative-boosting ingredient, part of how this formula stays stable without relying on a heavier preservative load. Niacinamide supports an even-looking tone and a smoother surface texture, and sits high enough on this list to be a working part of the formula rather than a trace addition. Together they build a concentrated, slightly denser liquid than a serum meant to work as one step in a layered Korean routine rather than a single do-everything product.
How to use
- Press a small amount into clean, toned skin, morning and night, before your moisturizer.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on the inner arm before first full-face use if trying this specific formula for the first time.
