When your skin feels fragile, even water can sting. That’s why finding a cleanser that calms rather than strips is essential. Atomy’s Derma Real Cica Gel Cleanser was created precisely for these moments — when your skin barrier needs healing, not another fight. This mild gel harnesses natural, scientifically validated ingredients to soothe, protect, and restore balance with each wash.
The Science of Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin isn’t just a type; it’s a condition of imbalance. When the outer barrier weakens, tiny cracks form, allowing irritants to enter and moisture to escape. Studies show that low-pH cleansers can help maintain barrier function and reduce inflammation in sensitive skin (NIH, 2018). Atomy’s Cica Gel Cleanser was designed around this principle, maintaining a mild pH close to the skin’s natural state while replacing harsh surfactants with gentle amino acid–based ones.
The Healing Touch of Centella Asiatica
At the heart of this formula lies Centella Asiatica, also known as Cica — a botanical extract celebrated for centuries in traditional medicine for its wound-healing properties. Modern research confirms that compounds within Centella, such as madecassoside and asiaticoside, promote collagen synthesis and accelerate skin repair (NIH, 2013). When applied through cleansing, it offers a soothing start to every skincare routine, gently calming irritation while supporting healing at a cellular level.
Ceramides: Restoring the Skin’s Armor
Every time we cleanse, we risk washing away lipids that keep our barrier intact. The inclusion of Ceramide NP helps restore that lost protection. Ceramides are naturally found in our skin and function as intercellular “cement.” When replenished, they enhance hydration and reinforce the protective layer that shields sensitive or damaged skin (NIH, 2018). In this cleanser, Ceramide NP works synergistically with Centella to both cleanse and comfort.
Minimal Formula, Maximum Calm
Atomy intentionally avoids alcohols, artificial fragrances, and strong foaming agents in this product. Its gel texture transforms into a mild lather — not the dense foam that can strip oils and provoke redness. This simplicity aligns with Atomy’s core principle of “Absolute Quality, Absolute Price”, meaning advanced formulation without unnecessary irritation or cost. The experience is refreshing, clean, and surprisingly hydrating — a rare balance in the cleansing world.
Everyday Use for Skin Recovery
Because of its low-irritation formula, this cleanser is ideal for morning and night, even when skin feels reactive or overworked from treatments, sun exposure, or environmental stress. Its botanical antioxidants — including green tea and houttuynia cordata extracts — add an extra layer of healing protection against oxidative damage. These ingredients not only cleanse but actively nurture, transforming what’s often a harsh daily task into an act of self-care and renewal.
The Atomy Philosophy in Motion
Atomy views skincare as an extension of intentional living — choices that nurture both outer beauty and inner wellness. The Derma Real Cica Gel Cleanser embodies this philosophy through its fusion of nature and science: a formula rooted in botanical healing, validated by research, and priced for accessibility. It reminds us that healing the skin doesn’t require complexity — just consistency, purity, and care.
Reflective Close
True healing begins when you stop fighting your skin and start listening to it. This gentle cleanser doesn’t demand transformation overnight; it offers quiet, daily restoration. Each wash becomes a ritual of calm — a pause, a reset, and a promise that your skin can feel safe again. And in that simplicity, beauty returns naturally — not forced, but found.
