How it works
The RED BLEMISH Clear Hyal Cica Soothing Serum is a 50ml serum, used after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. The active it is built around is Madecassoside, named thirty-ninth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Niacinamide, Allantoin and Succinic Acid, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Madecassoside stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the serum format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the serum Dr.G sells in Korea, Madecassoside and all.

Key actives
Madecassosideactive
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. It is the entry this serum is named after, and the list carries it.
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is named fourth on this serum's list, alongside Madecassoside.
Allantoinactive
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. It is named thirteenth on this serum's list, alongside Madecassoside.
Succinic Acidactive
Succinic Acid is a small organic acid used for the look of blemish-prone skin and as a pH adjuster. It is far milder than an AHA at the levels used here. It is named fifteenth on this serum's list, alongside Madecassoside.
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. It is named forty-third on this serum's list, alongside Madecassoside.
Where does this serum go in my routine?
After toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. Anything thinner than a serum 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 Madecassoside and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market serum or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Madecassoside and all. We match this serum 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 Madecassoside?
Niacinamide, Allantoin and Succinic Acid. The order they are printed in on this serum's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Madecassoside sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Asiaticoside, Madecassic Acid and Asiatic Acid.

How to use
- Apply it after your toner, while the face is still slightly damp, so a thin layer spreads without dragging.
- Three or four drops cover the whole face; press it in with the flats of the fingers rather than rubbing.
- Follow with a moisturizer within a minute so the thin layer has something holding it down.
- Do not stack it under a second serum doing the same job, since more layers is not the same as more result.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this serum on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Madecassoside on the list.
- Introduce this serum on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Madecassoside rather than to three changes at once.
