sidmool SIDMOOL HOUTTUYNIA CORDATA CICA ESSENTIAL

What is this product?

시드물 어성초 시카 에센셜 is a 165ml water gel whose declared list of 20 items leads with houttuynia cordata water at 92 percent and carries panthenol at a printed 10,000ppm. Its distinguishing feature is that the cica component is not a generic centella extract: madecassoside, madecassic acid, asiaticoside and asiatic acid all appear as separate entries, alongside three recombinant peptides the Korean label annotates as EGF, FGF and IGF. None of those actives carries a concentration. There is no oil and no occlusive, so it hydrates and needs a cream over it on dry skin.

What makes it different?

A cica gel that declares the four centella triterpenes individually rather than as one extract, on a 92 percent houttuynia water base, with panthenol at a printed 10,000ppm.

Ingredients with no mark are ones we found nothing notable about, and when marks overlap on one ingredient we show the caution first.

Did the ad claims hold up?

We checked 6 lines this product advertises against the ingredient list and public documents. One of them holds up. The rest are only partly right or have nothing behind them.

Each line is quoted as the brand published it, and each one was read on its own against the ingredient list and the documents the brand publishes.
