SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tea-Trica Spot Cream 20ml

SKIN1004 Tea-Trica Spot Cream 20ml is built for targeted use directly on blemishes, combining a 1% concentration of TECA with the brand's Tea-Trica complex, calamine and a trio of gentle acids, citric acid (AHA), gluconolactone (PHA) and capryloyl salicylic acid (LHA). It's a thicker, more concentrated formula than the brand's everyday moisturisers, meant for spot treatment rather than all-over daily hydration, though it can be used across the whole face on nights when skin feels reactive.

Why You'll Love It

• 1% TECA delivers a concentrated dose of the brand's signature centella complex directly to blemishes
• Calamine is included for its traditional calming, drying effect on individual spots
• A trio of gentle acids, AHA, PHA and LHA, work together without being as harsh as a single strong acid
• Tea tree leaf water and pine leaf extract add further comfort alongside the acids
• Thick enough to apply directly to a spot, but gentle enough to use across the whole face if needed

About SKIN1004

SKIN1004 built its reputation on Centella Asiatica sourced from Madagascar, and the Tea-Trica Spot Cream extends the brand's Tea-Trica complex into a targeted blemish treatment. The brand's name plays on the Korean word for angel, tying back to its soothing, skin-first identity. See the full SKIN1004 range for the rest of the Tea-Trica line.
