Spicule CICA™

Spicule CICA™ combines marine spicules with Centella Asiatica extract to improve skin delivery and renewal. Marine spicules create temporary micro-channels in the stratum corneum. These channels increase the penetration of active ingredients and boost overall efficacy. Centella Asiatica extract contains triterpenes such as asiaticoside and madecassoside. These compounds stimulate collagen synthesis, support wound healing, and provide anti-inflammatory protection. With its dual action, Spicule CICA™ suits anti-aging, acne care, and soothing formulations. It offers an advanced, non-invasive way to enhance ingredient absorption and promote visible skin recovery.
