STAR INGREDIENTS
Cica Sleeping Mask contains:
Forest Yeast - helps the skin to regain its natural power during the golden time of sleep, working to strengthen your skin to withstand external irritation. It’s a microorganism (or ferment) from a specific species of split peas growing in the Gotjawal forest on Jeju Island in South Korea. This ferment has good regenerating powers on the skin. This is because it is rich in fats, B vitamins as well as moisturising, soothing anti-oxidant beta glucan.
Centella asiatica - This formula contains three components extracted from centella, including asiaticoside (which helps form collagen to strengthen your skin), Asiatic acid, an anti-aging compound, that helps to plump up your skin and Madecassicacid, which aids in the production of collagen.
Squalane penetrates and absorbs rapidly into your skin and has antioxidant properties. This is an excellent moisturising ingredient.
Panthenol is an effective moisturiser that is ideal for skin that has been damaged. It is a natural humectant, which retains moisture and hydrates the skin. It also is a good lubricant on the skin, making skin look soft and smooth.
Shea butter contains a rich source of concentrated natural vitamins and fatty acids - oleic, stearic, palmitic, linolenic ~ and is highly moisturizing and nourishing.
Tea Tree oilhelps with blemishes, damaged and scarred skin dues to its repair properties. It may also help with preventing dry, flaky skin. It can help with current blemishes while reducing future blemishes and controlling excess oil.
Palmarosa (cymbopogon martini) oil, which helps reduce oiliness and treats blemishes. This oil also helps keep your skin supple and elastic.
Hinoki cypress has properties that are perfect for blemishes and minor skin issues.
Free from silicones, perfumes, animal-derived ingredients, pigment, talc and dyes.
