If Your Cleanser Doesn’t Contain These 2 Ingredients for Your Sensitive Skin, You’re Missing Out!

Have you ever washed your face expecting a refreshing feeling, only to encounter lingering tightness or even a hint of irritation?

Selecting the correct cleanser is vital for your skincare regimen as it establishes the foundation for everything else. That’s why choosing one with gentle, skin-loving ingredients can significantly impact your skin’s health.

Leading the charge are two ingredients known as “gentle giants” that are currently dominating the skincare industry: cica and amino acids.

Curious? Join us as we explore these skincare heroes and discover how incorporating them into cleansers will leave you with clear, glowing skin!

Why Your Cleanser Needs Cica & Amino Acids

Skincare Benefits of Cica

Cica, also known as centella asiatica, has gained immense popularity in Asian beauty culture for its remarkable ability to soothe and calm sensitive skin.

It’s often dubbed “tiger grass” because tigers are known to rub cica on their wounds to aid skin regeneration.

Cica’s strength lies in its anti-inflammatory properties. Think of it like a natural firefighter, reducing redness and irritation for calmer, more comfortable skin.

But the benefits extend beyond temporary relief. Cica can also help manage inflammation, a key factor in acne breakouts and irritation. This means calmer, clearer skin thanks to this gentle ingredient!

Skincare Benefits of Amino Acids

Meanwhile, amino acids function like microscopic puzzle pieces, naturally aligning with your skin’s building blocks to minimise the risk of irritation and redness.

Amino acid surfactants are gentle enough even for the most sensitive skin. They have the ability to remove impurities like dirt and makeup, without disrupting your skin’s natural oils.

Amino acids are also moisture magnets, attracting and holding water close to your skin’s surface, leaving it feeling plump, supple, and hydrated.

Why Choose Senka’s Cleansers for Sensitive Skin

Senka isn’t just about popularity (though being Japan and Korea’s #1 facial foam cleanser, especially in Japan for 16 years, is impressive!). Its success stems from carefully formulated cleansers packed with beneficial ingredients.

Senka’s latest additions, Perfect Whip Low pH Gentle Calming Cica and Perfect Whip Premium Amino-in, cater specifically to sensitive skin concerns.

These cleansers are carefully crafted to be gentle by harnessing the power of cica and amino acids, making them ideal for even the most delicate skin.
