SEOUL 1988 REPAIR CREAM : NIACICA 20% + MUGWORT
A calming, barrier-repair cream with "Niacica 20%", a blend of 5% niacinamide and 15% centella leaf water, plus mugwort and ceramide. It soothes redness, strengthens a stressed barrier and helps even out skin tone, leaving skin calm, comfortable and hydrated.
Best for: Sensitive, red, irritated or barrier-damaged skin, uneven tone, and recovery on nights off from retinoids.
Key ingredients
- Niacinamide (5%): brightens, evens tone and strengthens the barrier.
- Centella leaf water (15%): calms redness and irritation.
- Mugwort (Artemisia capillaris): a soothing, antioxidant botanical.
- Ceramide NP and coconut butter: support the barrier and lock in moisture.
How to use
After toner and serum, smooth an even layer over your face and gently pat in. Use morning and/or night. Layer a little extra on dry or irritated areas.
