Nothing makes us feel more confident than healthy, glowing skin, which is why we’re obsessed with the latest beauty trend:\u00a0cica\u00a0cream. You’re probably wondering, “what the heck is cica\u00a0cream?”<\/p>\n

We chatted with Dr. Ted Lain<\/a>, a\u00a0board-certified dermatologist, to find out more about this miracle-working moisturizer.<\/p>\n

What exactly is cica cream?
\n<\/strong><\/em>This moisturizing and barrier-repairing cream gets its name because of one special ingredient — Centella\u00a0Asiatica\u00a0extract. “This plant has been used for its anti-inflammatory, wound-healing, and moisturizing properties,” says Lain. Recent research also proves that cica cream shows an increase in collagen production, skin thickness, and growth of blood vessels.\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

Why are cica creams experiencing a resurgence?
\n<\/strong><\/em>According to Lain,<\/span>\u00a0consumers are in search of all-natural methods to improve the health of their skin. And since we\u00a0love<\/em> anything that’s chock-full of good-for-you ingredients, we fully support the cream’s recent popularity.<\/p>\n

What are some things to look for in\u00a0cica cream?
\n<\/strong><\/em>“I always recommend creams or products that perform more than one duty — since we should expect our products to be multitaskers just like us,” says Lain. Make sure to do your research\u00a0and check the labels\u00a0when buying your\u00a0next tube of cica\u00a0cream to find the perfect one for your skin’s needs.<\/p>\n
