Take the skin testExperience targeted care like never before with the Dr. Melaxin Cicapyrin Calming 4 Part Pads. These innovative toner pads can be split into four sections for precise spot treatment, delivering intensive hydration and soothing relief to sensitive areas. Infused with PCM Micro Capsules and Centella Asiatica Extract, they provide a refreshing cooling sensation while strengthening the skin barrier. Willow Bark Extract offers anti-inflammatory benefits, while Niacinamide and Adenosine brighten and combat wrinkles.
Cicapyrin Calming 4 Part Pads is a lightweight toner pads from Dr.Melaxin. The formula is built mainly around hydration and soothing. The ingredient list runs to 35 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. Hydration is handled by Butylene Glycol, Glycerin and Betaine, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Betaine and Ethylhexylglycerin.
Soothing: High. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Allantoin, Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract, Panthenol and Asiaticoside.
Barrier support: Moderate. Lipids and repair signals that support skin barrier integrity, and here that comes from Niacinamide, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Panthenol and Glucosyl Ceramide NP.
Oil control: Moderate. Ingredients that moderate sebum or absorb shine, and here that comes from Niacinamide.
On richness alone it suits Balanced, Combination (oily) and Oily skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, cell renewal and firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free and microplastic-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after cleansing, before serums. Apply to slightly damp skin so the humectants have water to hold on to.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
