THE PLANT BASE AC Clear Cica Recovery Cream is a waterless, 55% Centella Asiatica balm from Korean indie brand P'LAB. Formulated as a barrier-repair, post-care balm rather than a daily moisturizer, it combines high-dose cica with NEO-ENDORPHIN peptides and tea tree + plant squalane to soothe redness, irritation, and breakout-prone skin. The thick, concentrated texture absorbs without greasiness and is designed for sensitive, stressed, and post-procedure skin. Waterless, clean formula: no parabens, PEG, artificial fragrance, or colors; vegan and cruelty-free. Eco-conscious packaging (paper tube, 60% less plastic). A little goes a long way—use as a daily soothing layer or intensive overnight mask. Best for sensitive, redness-prone, and compromised barrier users.
