Give your skin the care it craves, soothe, restore, and glow with confidence with Cicapyrin.
Cicapyrin Calming Cream is a lightweight cream from Dr.Melaxin. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 45 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. Silicones in the formula tend to give a smooth, blurred finish and help it grip under makeup. Hydration is handled by Butylene Glycol, Glycerin and Butylene Glycol Dicaprylate/dicaprate, 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, Butylene Glycol Dicaprylate/dicaprate and Panthenol.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract, Niacinamide and Adenosine.
Oil control: Moderate. Ingredients that moderate sebum or absorb shine, and here that comes from Niacinamide, Capryloyl Salicylic Acid, Salicylic Acid and Dextrin.
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 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, microplastic-free and sulfate-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 serums. Seal in your serums with it; in the morning, sunscreen still goes on top.
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.
Drawn purely from the ingredient list

No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
