# TOCOBO CICA Calming Aqua Toner 200ml The Korean-market TOCOBO toner formula, not the US reformulation. - Brand: TOCOBO - Product: CICA Calming Aqua Toner 200ml - Price: $30.00 - Availability: In stock - Size: 200 ml - Market: Korean market, the version sold in Korea - Made in: Republic of Korea - EAN (barcode): 8809835060577 - Category: Toners ## Key benefits - Four forms of centella asiatica on one panel, not a single token inclusion - Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water on the same panel, the formula's plant extract - Allantoin on the same panel, the formula's active - 200 ml to a unit - Korean GS1 barcode matched against a Korea sourcing supplier's record for this item ## How it works The panel on this toner names four forms of centella asiatica rather than one: Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract, Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Madecassic Acid. 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. On this panel it sits alongside Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water, Allantoin and Gluconolactone. Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water is green tea distillate used in place of plain water as a base. It is far more dilute than the extract, so it sets the base rather than supplying the antioxidants. ## How to use 1. Cleanse first and go straight to this while your face is still damp, since a damp surface takes it evenly. 2. Pour a small amount into your palm or onto a cotton pad and press it over the face and neck. 3. Follow with your serum and moisturiser within a minute or two so the water has something to sit under. 4. Do not rub it in with force or let your face dry off completely first, because both waste the step. ## Ingredients Water, Butylene Glycol, Dipropylene Glycol, Glycerin, Xylitol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Erythritol, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water, Carbomer, Tromethamine, Allantoin, Xanthan Gum, Gluconolactone, Mentha Aquatica Leaf Extract, Aloe Ferox Leaf Extract, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, Salvia Sclarea (Clary) Extract, Borago Officinalis Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Centaurea Cyanus Flower Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Flower Extract, Hyacinthus Orientalis (Hyacinth) Extract, Melia Azadirachta Flower Extract, Lactococcus Ferment Lysate, Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate, Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Niacinamide, Carica Papaya (Papaya) Fruit Extract, Malus Domestica Fruit Extract, Prunus Mume Fruit Extract, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Panthenol, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Madecassic Acid, Tocopherol, Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Beta-Glucan, Ceramide NP, Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate, Hyaluronic Acid, Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Potassium Hyaluronate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance ## FAQ ### What does the TOCOBO toner texture feel like on skin? It applies as a watery texture that settles in within a minute or two rather than sitting on the surface. Because it is the Korean-market formula rather than a US-shelf reformulation, the finish matches what the same product feels like on shelf in Korea, not a version adjusted for a different market's regulations. ### Where does this toner fit in a Korean skincare routine? It sits at the first liquid step after cleansing, before serum or essence. Korean routines are built as layers rather than a single all-in-one step, so using it out of order, for example before a lighter product that needs to absorb first, is the most common reason a product underperforms its expectations. ### Is this the authentic Korean-market version, and how is it different from what US retailers sell? Yes: TOCOBO formulates this line for the Korean market first, and this is that exact formula shipped from Korean-market stock rather than a separately registered US version. Some Korean brands sell a reformulated line through US retailers with different actives or filter systems to clear US regulations, and this is not that product. ### Who should reach for this toner first? Anyone already using TOCOBO's other products will notice the same formulation logic here, and it is a reasonable first pick for someone building out a Korean routine around this step for the first time. Skin that reacts to heavy fragrance loads should still read the full ingredient panel on the product page before committing to daily use. ### How should this be stored and how long does it last once opened? Keep it out of direct sun and away from bathroom heat and humidity, the way any Korean-formulated skincare should be stored, and use a clean hand or spatula rather than repeatedly dipping wet fingers into the container. A sealed, unopened unit keeps for the shelf life printed on its own Korean-market batch code, which is intact on every unit we ship. --- Page: https://korean-pharmacy.com/products/tocobo-cica-calming-aqua-toner-200ml
