Centella Asiatica, also known as Gotu Kola or Cica, is a botanical ingredient widely used in cosmetics for its soothing, repairing and skin-strengthening properties. Rich in bioactive compounds such as asiaticoside, madecassoside and asiatic acid, it supports skin regeneration, improves barrier function and helps calm inflammation, making it especially valuable for sensitive or compromised skin.
Centella Asiatica is commonly found in serums, creams and post-treatment formulations designed to soothe irritation, promote healing and reinforce skin resilience. Its ability to support collagen synthesis and reduce visible signs of stress makes it a key ingredient in skincare routines focused on repair, recovery and long-term skin health.
