Korean Cica Cream | Centellian24 Madeca · Retinol | 1.69 fl oz
Korean cica cream from Centellian24 is a night moisturizer made in Korea, built on Active-TECA at 30,000 ppm, the brand's titrated Centella asiatica complex, with retinol and adenosine.
What Madeca Cream Time Reverse is
Madeca Cream Time Reverse (Season 7) is Centellian24's 50 ml cica cream. Its signature ingredient is Active-TECA at 30,000 ppm — a titrated Centella asiatica complex — layered with retinol, adenosine, and niacinamide. The texture is whipped rather than heavy, so it sinks in without leaving a film under sunscreen.
Centella asiatica, the plant Korea calls byeongpul and the West calls cica, has been a fixture in Korean skin care for decades. Centellian24 is the skincare line built around it by Dongkook Pharmaceutical (동국제약), and Active-TECA is the standardized Centella complex at the center of every Madeca cream.
Made in Korea, stocked in New Jersey
This cream is made in Korea by Korea Kolmar (한국콜마) for Centellian24, the skincare brand of Dongkook Pharmaceutical (동국제약). Kosbee buys it into US stock and ships it from our own New Jersey warehouse.
That means a sealed, current-season tube leaves a US warehouse within one business day — no month-long transit, and no guessing about which seller handled it along the way.

How to use it
How do you apply Madeca Cream Time Reverse?
Use it at night as the last step, after toner and serum. A pea-size amount covers the face; take a second for the neck. Smooth it outward rather than rubbing it in, and give it a minute to settle before you lie down.
How do you start a retinol cream without irritating your skin?
Because this cream contains retinol, build up rather than starting nightly. Two to three nights a week for the first two weeks, then every other night, then nightly if your skin stays comfortable. Sunscreen every morning while you are using it — that part is not optional with retinol.
Before you use it
This cream contains retinol. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your doctor before using any retinol product. Avoid broken or irritated skin, and stop if irritation develops.
It contains fragrance and plant oils, including limonene, linalool, and citral, so patch test on the inner forearm for a day or two if your skin is reactive.
It is not vegan — the formula includes hydrolyzed elastin, collagen amino acids, salmon-derived PDRN, and beeswax. You may also see tiny grains from the plant-derived TECA; that is normal and does not affect the product.
Making sense of the Madeca name
What does Madeca have to do with Madecassol?
Both come from the same company. Dongkook Pharmaceutical (동국제약) has made Madecassol, a Centella asiatica ointment, in Korea since 1970, and it later built the Centellian24 skincare line on the same botanical research. Madeca Cream is a cosmetic, not a medicine, and it is sold for skin care rather than treatment — the shared name points to a shared ingredient history, not a shared purpose.
TECA or Centella extract — what does 30,000 ppm mean?
Centella extract is the whole-plant extract, and its composition varies. TECA — titrated extract of Centella asiatica — is standardized, so the proportions of madecassic acid, asiaticoside, asiatic acid, and madecassoside are fixed rather than variable. Centellian24 lists Active-TECA at 30,000 ppm, which is 3% of the formula, with madecassic acid at 4,800 ppm.
