How it works
Missha is a mainstream Korean drugstore brand with one of the longest-running catalogs in Korean skincare, and New Artemisia Calming Moisture Cream 50ml is formulated as a cream for the Korean market rather than a US-shelf reformulation. Ceramide NP is one of the lipids that make up the skin's own barrier structure, and including it here is meant to support the look and feel of that barrier over time. It sits at position 27 of 31 ingredients on this row's own list, ahead of most of the formula's supporting agents. Panthenol, also called provitamin B5, is a humectant and conditioning agent long used in Korean formulation to support the skin's surface softness and a calmer feel after cleansing. Further down the list, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate appears at position 25 of 31, adding a supporting layer rather than the lead role.
Key benefits
- Ceramide NP closes out the back half of the list at position 27 of 31, a supporting rather than lead role.
- Panthenol closes out the back half of the list at position 19 of 31, a supporting rather than lead role.
- Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate closes out the back half of the list at position 25 of 31, a supporting rather than lead role.
- Tocopherol closes out the back half of the list at position 29 of 31, a supporting rather than lead role.
- No fragrance or parfum appears on this 31-ingredient list.
- Comes sized at 50ml, the Korean-market fill rather than a US-repackaged size.
Inside the formula
Inside the formula
What is the New Artemisia Calming Moisture Cream 50ml?
It is Missha's cream. Ceramide NP is one of the lipids that make up the skin's own barrier structure, and including it here is meant to support the look and feel of that barrier over time. Apply as the last step of your routine, morning or evening, smoothing evenly over the face and neck.
What does Ceramide NP do in the New Artemisia Calming Moisture Cream 50ml?
Ceramide NP is one of the lipids that make up the skin's own barrier structure, and including it here is meant to support the look and feel of that barrier over time. It sits at position 27 of 31 on this row's own ingredient list.
Who is the New Artemisia Calming Moisture Cream 50ml suited for?
It suits normal, dry, combination and sensitive skin looking for final moisture-lock step. Store the bottle away from direct sunlight and heat to keep the formula stable over its shelf life.
How do I use the New Artemisia Calming Moisture Cream 50ml?
Apply as the last step of your routine, morning or evening, smoothing evenly over the face and neck. Give it a few weeks in that slot before judging the result, since a cream works cumulatively rather than after one use.
Is the New Artemisia Calming Moisture Cream 50ml the authentic Korean-market formula?
Yes. We stock Missha's Korean-market formula rather than a version reformulated for US shelves. What ships is the 50ml unit sold on Korean shelves, with the Korean barcode and batch code intact on the box.

28 of 30 explained
- Artemisia Annua Extract plant extract
- Artemisia Annua is sweet wormwood, a mugwort relative. Its extract is used in Korean formulas for the look of reactive skin.
- 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.
- 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.
- Pentylene Glycol humectant
- Pentylene Glycol hydrates and, like the other longer-chain glycols, makes a formula less hospitable to microbes so the preservative system can be lighter. It also improves how evenly a product spreads.
- Vincetoxicum Atratum Extract plant extract
- Baekmi, a traditional Korean herbal root extract. It is used as a conditioning plant extract, usually beside other Korean herbal ingredients.
- Hydrogenated Polydecene emollient
- 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.
- Vinyl Dimethicone silicone
- Vinyl Dimethicone is a silicone used as a building block of the crosspolymer gels that give a formula its soft, blurring feel.
- Caprylyl Methicone silicone
- Caprylyl Methicone is a silicone with a fatty tail, so it mixes with plant oils as well as with silicones. It gives a dry slip and helps disperse powders.
- Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer thickener
- This is a synthetic thickener that gels quickly and holds an emulsion stable across a wide pH range. It gives a light, non-tacky body.
- 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.
16 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.
- Dimethiconol silicone
- Dimethiconol is a high-molecular-weight silicone that leaves a longer-lasting smooth film than dimethicone. It is used for lasting slip and shine.
- 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.
- 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.
- Ethylhexylglycerin preservative booster
- Ethylhexylglycerin softens skin and boosts a preservative system, which is why it is nearly always sitting beside phenoxyethanol or 1,2-hexanediol. It also cuts down the odour bacteria produce, so it turns up in deodorising products.
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride emollient
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is the light fraction of coconut oil, with the heavy parts removed. It is the workhorse emollient of modern formulas: it softens skin, dissolves oil-soluble actives and absorbs without the greasy weight of a whole plant oil.
- Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer film former
- This is a polymer that forms a moisture-holding film on the surface, usually supplied with glycerin and propylene glycol as a hydrating complex.
- Citric Acid pH adjuster
- Citric Acid is used in tiny amounts to bring a formula to the pH its actives need, not as an exfoliant at that level. It is an AHA, so at much higher concentrations it can also exfoliate.
- Hydrogenated Lecithin emulsifier
- Hydrogenated Lecithin is lecithin with its unsaturated bonds filled in, which makes it far more stable. It emulsifies and is the standard shell for the liposomes that carry actives into the outer layer of 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.
- Sodium Citrate pH adjuster
- Sodium Citrate is the salt of citric acid, used as a buffer: it holds a formula at a steady pH rather than pushing it in one direction. It is also a mild chelator.
- Ceramide NP barrier lipid
- Ceramide NP is the most used cosmetic ceramide, the same class of lipid that makes up roughly half the mortar between cells in the outer layer of skin. Added to a cream it slots into that structure, which is why ceramide formulas feel less leaky rather than merely greasy.
- Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate emulsifier
- Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate is an amino-acid-derived emulsifier. It holds oil and water together and is mild enough for formulas built for reactive skin.
- Tocopherol antioxidant
- Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer.
- Xanthan Gum thickener
- Xanthan Gum is a polysaccharide made by fermenting sugar. It thickens a watery formula into a gel and holds the whole thing in suspension so nothing separates. Too much of it and a serum turns stringy, which is why it appears in fractions of a percent.
- Disodium EDTA chelator
- EDTA is a chelator: it locks up trace metal ions from water and packaging that would otherwise turn a formula cloudy, off-colour or rancid. It does nothing to skin and appears at a fraction of a percent.

How to use
- Take a small amount after your serum and press it over the face, working outward from the centre.
- Go lighter over the nose and forehead if those areas run oily, and heavier on the cheeks if they run dry.
- Let it settle for a minute before makeup so nothing rolls up over it.
- Avoid using more than you need on a warm day, because a cream that never fully settles is what makes makeup slide.
Worth knowing
- Store the bottle away from direct sunlight and heat to keep the formula stable over its shelf life.
- Patch test on a small area first if you are new to this formula or to the brand.
