Centella Asiatica Extract

Research into Centella asiatica suggests it can help improve skin hydration and support the skin barrier, making it particularly useful for dry, sensitive or compromised skin.

Milani et al., 2017 — “The 24-hour skin hydration and barrier function effects of a hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5% and Centella asiatica stem cells containing fluid.”

The randomized controlled study found that the formulation significantly improved skin hydration and skin-barrier function for up to 24 hours after application.
