SKIN1004

Hyalu-Cica Blue Serum

A quietly excellent budget serum that stacks Centella asiatica leaf water, five types of hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, ceramide NP, and adenosine into a fragrance-free under-$20 bottle. It is genuinely one of the best hydration-plus-soothing serums at any price, and the fact that it costs less than a salad in Manhattan is the point.

Sensitive Skin First-Line Defense

Hyalu-Cica First Ampoule

A 92% Centella asiatica extract ampoule paired with niacinamide and a multi-weight HA complex, fragrance-free and purpose-built for sensitive, compromised, and reactive skin. At $25 for 100ml, it is one of the most justifiable skincare purchases a budget-conscious buyer can make, and it earns a place in almost any routine that needs a soothing anchor.

Budget Brightening Essence-Toner

Hyalu-Cica Brightening Toner

A 74% Centella leaf water base, functional niacinamide, gentle LHA, hyaluronic acid stack, adenosine, and ceramide NP in a 210ml bottle for around $22. This is less a toner and more a hydrating-brightening essence in disguise, and it's one of the best-value daily treatments in Korean skincare right now.

K-Beauty Sensitive Skin Staple

normalcombination Fragrance Free

Hyalu-Cica Moisture Cream

A centella-forward gel-cream that doesn't hide its hero ingredient in the middle of the INCI list — 50% centella asiatica extract replaces the usual water base, giving this moisturizer genuine calming power for reactive skin at a fair K-beauty price. Light, layerable, and one of the most reliable sensitive-skin picks in SKIN1004's lineup.

K-Beauty Overnight Recovery Pick

Hyalu-Cica Sleeping Pack

A genuinely serious centella sleeping pack that discloses its active concentrations with unusual transparency — 40.9% centella leaf water as the hydration base and 1.44% total hyaluronic acid, which is higher than most competitors dare to disclose. Lightweight, calming, and fairly priced for 100ml of overnight treatment.

Barrier Rescue Ampoule

Probio-Cica Intensive Ampoule

The treatment-tier centerpiece of SKIN1004's Probio-Cica line — a centella ampoule that layers four postbiotic ferments, polyglutamic acid, and a small ceramide trio onto the full triterpene panel. If you want a barrier-rescue serum that does more than the usual 'cica plus HA,' this earns its ampoule label.

K-Beauty Cica Evolution

Centella Teca Ampoule

SKIN1004's most sophisticated centella formula to date, packing PDRN, triple peptides, ceramides, and probiotics alongside high-potency TECA extract into a lightweight, fragrance-free ampoule. A genuine evolution from the brand's minimalist origins that delivers serious value for the ingredient complexity.

K-Beauty Sensitive Skin MVP

drysensitive Fragrance Free

Hyalu-Cica Hydrating Mask

A standout hydration sheet mask that pairs five forms of hyaluronic acid with the complete Madagascar centella active profile — making it as much a calming treatment as a water-soaking one. Fragrance-free, remarkably well-tolerated, and priced like the K-beauty staple it has quietly become. The best reason to keep a box in the fridge.

K-Beauty Barrier Prep Staple

Probio-Cica Essence Toner

A generous 210ml essence-toner that brings centella triterpenes, four postbiotic ferments, and polyglutamic acid to the first leave-on step of your routine. It's the rare toner that earns its 'essence' label rather than borrowing it.

K-Beauty Cica-Bright Hybrid

sensitivenormal Fragrance Free

Centella Teca Cream

A clever hybrid that tackles the frustrating soothe-then-brighten cycle in one step — combining SKIN1004's centella expertise with a triple brightening system of hexylresorcinol, alpha-arbutin, and kojic acid. It is the cream for people whose sensitive skin keeps leaving dark marks behind.

K-Beauty Cica Toner Upgrade

Centella Teca Soothing Toner

A toner that actually earns its place in the routine — combining TECA centella soothing, gentle LHA exfoliation, and oil-regulating zinc PCA in a generous 210mL bottle. It transforms the toner step from a passive hydration layer into an active treatment phase without sacrificing gentleness.

K-Beauty Lightweight SPF

SKIN1004 sunscreen

Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum SPF 50+

One of the lightest-feeling SPF 50+ organic-filter sunscreens in its price bracket, delivering a classic four-filter U.S.-compliant system in a genuinely watery serum base. No white cast, minimal greasiness, and enough centella and panthenol to support sensitive-leaning skin without compromising the protection story.

K-Beauty Brightening Workhorse

normalcombination Fragrance Free

Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule

A cleverly engineered brightening ampoule that brings pharmaceutical-level multi-pathway thinking to a $19 K-beauty product. The triple-active approach — niacinamide, tranexamic acid, and ethyl ascorbic acid — all cushioned in 77% centella extract delivers gradual, cumulative brightening without the irritation tax most brightening products charge.

K-Beauty Multi-Peptide Value Pick

combinationoily Fragrance Free

Poremizing Fresh Ampoule

A gentle, centella-heavy ampoule that layers a nine-peptide complex onto a 50.47% centella base, delivering genuine calming support alongside subtle pore and elasticity benefits. Fragrance-free, remarkably well-tolerated, and one of the best values in K-beauty for anyone wanting to try multi-peptide skincare without committing to a dedicated high-dose serum.

Probio-Cica Enrich Cream

A quietly overachieving barrier cream that upgrades SKIN1004's centella formula with a four-ferment postbiotic blend and a real lipid trio. It's the cica cream for people whose skin has graduated from 'a little red' to 'actively mad at them.'

drysensitive Fragrance Free

Acne Treatment Ampoule

Tea-Trica Relief Ampoule

The treatment-tier anchor of SKIN1004's Tea-Trica line — a tea-tree-water-based ampoule that carries a treatment-grade betaine salicylate dose plus the full centella triterpene panel and beta-glucan for buffering. For oily, acne-prone skin, it's one of the better K-beauty acne serums in this price range.

K-Beauty Brightening Workhorse

Tone Brightening Boosting Toner

A quietly ambitious brightening toner that stacks five complementary tone-evening actives inside SKIN1004's signature Madagascar centella base. Results are cumulative rather than dramatic, but for under $25 you get niacinamide, alpha-arbutin, tranexamic acid, glutathione, and ascorbyl glucoside working together on a soothing foundation — a combination that costs three times as much in Western serums.

Budget Functional Face Mist

SKIN1004 treatment

Hyalu-Cica Cloudy Mist

Face mists have a bad reputation because most of them are just water with fragrance. This one isn't. Built on 40% green tea leaf water, Centella, three hyaluronic acids, ceramide NP, adenosine, and Galactomyces, it's a functional soothing-hydration mist that actually earns a place in a working routine. At around $20, it's a small everyday luxury that pays off.

K-Beauty Sun Serum Sensation

SKIN1004 sunscreen

Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum SPF 50+

The sunscreen that makes you forget you are wearing sunscreen. Four next-generation UV filters deliver SPF 50+ PA++++ with absolutely zero white cast, while centella and triple hyaluronic acid turn protection into a hydrating, skin-loving experience. A genuine K-beauty sunscreen triumph.

combinationoily Fragrance Free

Post-Flight Skin Saver

Probio-Cica Nourishing Mask

A fragrance-free sheet mask that delivers the full Probio-Cica essence formula in a high-contact weekly treatment format. For reactive skin, post-flight puffiness, or post-procedure recovery, it's one of the more thoughtful cica sheets on the market.

Daily BHA for Oily Skin

Tea-Trica Purifying Toner

A well-built daily BHA toner that uses betaine salicylate as its engine and surrounds it with tea tree, centella, niacinamide, and zinc. Less sting than Western salicylic acid toners, more staying power than a typical hydrating K-beauty essence.

Gentle Cleanse Gold Standard

Madagascar Centella Ampoule Foam

A cleanser that takes the Hippocratic oath — first, do no harm. The four-surfactant coconut-derived system at pH 5.0 delivers genuinely gentle cleansing that supports rather than undermines the barrier repair your other products are working toward. The centella extract is a thoughtful bonus.

Madagascar Centella Soothing Cream

A genuinely impressive centella cream that puts its money where its INCI list is — 72% extract concentration backed by a full ceramide complex and tranexamic acid, all for under $15. The only real asterisk is the puzzling inclusion of peppermint extract in a product designed for sensitive skin, but it's low enough in the formula that most users won't notice.

Sensitive Skin Gateway Exfoliant

sensitivenormal Fragrance Free

Madagascar Centella Toning Toner

A deliberately gentle exfoliating toner that prioritizes safety over spectacle — 84% centella extract with mild PHA exfoliation makes it one of the most accessible acid toners for sensitive skin. Don't expect dramatic peeling or instant glow; expect quiet, cumulative smoothing that never punishes your barrier.

Acne-Prone Oil-Control Pick

Tea-Trica B5 Cream

SKIN1004's acne-prone answer to its own centella lineage — a gel-cream that stacks tea tree, salicylic acid, niacinamide, and zinc PCA on a base of full-panel centella. Built for oily and breakout-prone skin that wants more bite than the brand's gentler barrier creams.

Tea-Trica Spot Cover Patch

A solid tea-tree-and-centella-enhanced hydrocolloid patch at a strong per-patch price. Does what a good pimple patch should: absorbs fluid overnight, protects from picking, and leaves a less angry spot behind. Doesn't rewrite the category, but doesn't need to.

K-Beauty Double Cleanse Essential

normalcombination Paraben Free

Centella Light Cleansing Oil

A remarkably lightweight cleansing oil that makes double cleansing feel effortless rather than like a chore. SKIN1004's centella-infused formula dissolves makeup and sunscreen gently, rinses clean, and leaves skin genuinely soft — though the essential oils make it a near-miss for the truly fragrance-sensitive.

Poremizing Clear Toner

A well-balanced multi-acid exfoliating toner that combines BHA, LHA, AHA, and PHA at gentle daily-use concentrations, with a meaningful centella and hyaluronic acid buffer system. Best for oily and combination skin dealing with congestion; the lavender extract and acid load make it a poor pick for reactive skin, but for the right user it's one of the more considered K-beauty pore toners in its price range.

K-Beauty Oily-Skin Gel Cream

Poremizing Light Gel Cream

A niacinamide-forward gel cream with meaningful centella support, triple hyaluronic acid hydration, and a light kaolin-xylitol oil-control layer. Genuinely lightweight without being empty, and one of the better values in K-beauty for oily and combination skin that wants functional ingredients rather than pure cosmetic feel. The lavender extract is the main avoidable downside.

Retinol-Free Anti-Aging Eye Pick

SKIN1004 eye-cream

Probio-Cica Bakuchiol Eye Cream

A smart, irritation-conscious eye cream that deploys bakuchiol, Argireline peptide, and fermented centella in a multi-pathway anti-aging strategy that doesn't require retinol to work. The rich-yet-light texture is well-calibrated for the periorbital area, and the results — while gradual — are genuine. At $18.90 for 20ml, it's fairly priced for the active sophistication you're getting.

drynormal Fragrance Free

Multi-Active Spot Treatment

SKIN1004 treatment

Tea-Trica Spot Cream

A genuinely multi-mechanism spot treatment that combines tea tree, salicylic acid, sulfur, zinc oxide, and the centella triterpene panel. It's more aggressive than the rest of the Tea-Trica line and more effective on active pimples, with sulfur quietly doing more work than most users expect.

K-Beauty Pore Care Pick

Poremizing Clarifying Mask

A smartly engineered multi-acid sheet mask that stacks BHA, PHA, LHA, and succinic acid at gentle doses, supported by centella and panthenol buffers. Best for oily and combination skin with blackhead concerns; the Mentha arvensis leaf oil inclusion makes it a poor pick for reactive skin, but a solid value pore-care treatment otherwise.

Breakout SOS Sheet Mask

Tea-Trica Relaxing Mask

A treatment-grade tea tree sheet mask that uses Melaleuca leaf water as the entire essence base rather than a token extract. With leave-on salicylic acid, the full centella panel, and niacinamide, it's a smarter acne sheet than most on the market.

K-Beauty Cica Essential

sensitiveoily Fragrance Free

Madagascar Centella Ampoule

Seven ingredients. One of K-beauty's biggest success stories. This radically minimalist centella ampoule proves that sometimes the most powerful thing a skincare product can do is get out of your skin's way — offering pure, gentle soothing with virtually zero risk of irritation.

Madagascar Centella Watergel Sheet Ampoule Mask

A genuinely well-constructed sheet mask that justifies the watergel format with better adherence, cooling, and essence delivery than standard cotton masks. The triple HA complex and centella-chamomile soothing duo deliver real results in a single 20-minute session. The mentha oil is the one head-scratcher in an otherwise sensitive-skin-friendly formula.

K-Beauty Cica Moisturizer Classic

Madagascar Centella Cream

The nourishing counterpart to SKIN1004's minimalist ampoule — a well-constructed cream that layers shea butter, squalane, ceramide NP, and niacinamide around the brand's signature centella extract. Genuinely moisturizing and comfortable, though the essential oil inclusion is a missed opportunity for a brand that serves sensitive skin.

drynormal Paraben Free

Madagascar Centella Quick Calming Pad

Ten ingredients. 49% centella. Zero irritants. The Quick Calming Pad is the toner pad for people who need their skin to calm down — not wake up with acids. Pure soothing in a convenient, swipe-and-go format that brings SKIN1004's minimalist philosophy to the most accessible product category in K-beauty.

K-Beauty Pore Stick Innovation

Poremizing Quick Clay Stick Mask

An innovative stick-format clay mask that delivers a traditional kaolin-plus-bentonite oil-absorbing system in a genuinely convenient twist-up format. Thoughtfully includes adzuki powder polish and centella buffering, making it one of the gentler clay masks in its category. The small 20g size for the premium price is the main value concern.

K-Beauty Retinol Game-Changer

SKIN1004 retinoid

Retinol 0.2 Boosting Shot Ampoule

An innovative K-beauty retinoid that punches above its price class with a dual retinol-retinal formula and spicule-enhanced delivery, all buffered by SKIN1004's signature centella. It's not the gentlest entry point for complete retinol beginners, but for anyone ready to level up their anti-aging game without breaking the bank, this $19 ampoule delivers formulation sophistication that rivals products at three times the price.

Oily Skin's Morning Cleanser

Tea-Trica BHA Foam

A no-nonsense BHA cleanser that does what it promises — clears pores, fights acne bacteria, and controls oil — without pretending to be a gentle, everyone-friendly product. The tea tree and salicylic acid combination is well-executed for oily, breakout-prone skin, though the centella can only do so much to counteract the formula's inherent assertiveness for truly sensitive types.

Centella-Powered Sun Shield

SKIN1004 sunscreen

Madagascar Centella Air-Fit Suncream Plus SPF 50+

A mineral sunscreen that replaces water with 35.8% centella extract — a genuinely innovative base that turns sun protection into a soothing treatment. The UV protection is excellent, but the essential oils (including bergamot) in a sunscreen marketed for sensitive skin undercut an otherwise impressive formula.

normalcombination Paraben Free

K-Beauty Oily-Skin Foam

Poremizing Deep Cleansing Foam

A traditional K-beauty soap-based foam cleanser modernized with papain enzymes, light kaolin, and centella buffering — competent for oily and combination skin that wants a deep-clean feel, but the alkaline base and rosemary oil make this a poor pick for sensitive or dry users. Solid value if it suits your skin type; otherwise, look to SKIN1004's gentler cleansing options.
