Korean Cica Cream | Centellian24 Madeca Tight Lifting | 1.69 fl oz
Korean cica cream from Centellian24 is a night moisturizer made in Korea, built on Moving-TECA over a fermented Centella base, with retinol, adenosine, and niacinamide.
What Madeca Cream Tight Lifting is
Madeca Cream Tight Lifting is the firming-focused 50 ml tube in Centellian24's Madeca line. Its Centella complex is Moving-TECA, with madecassic acid at 4,000 ppm, and the formula is built on a Lactobacillus and Centella ferment filtrate rather than water. Retinol, adenosine, and niacinamide round it out.
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 each Madeca cream is tuned around a different titrated Centella complex.
Made in Korea, stocked in New Jersey
This cream is made in Korea by Rebom Cosmetics (리봉화장품) 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 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 Tight Lifting?
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. Work upward — from the jaw toward the ears, and from the collarbone toward the chin — rather than dragging downward.
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.
The ingredient list includes fragrance and plant oils with citral, geraniol, linalool, citronellol, and limonene. Citrus-derived oils can increase sun sensitivity, so patch test on the inner forearm for a day or two if your skin is reactive, and keep up with daily sunscreen.
It is not vegan — the formula includes collagen, elastin, 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.
Choosing between the Madeca creams
Moving-TECA or Active-TECA — what is the difference?
Both are Centellian24's titrated Centella complexes, tuned differently for each cream. Time Reverse uses Active-TECA at 30,000 ppm with madecassic acid at 4,800 ppm. Tight Lifting uses Moving-TECA with madecassic acid at 4,000 ppm, over a Lactobacillus and Centella ferment filtrate base rather than water. Same botanical, different formulation.
Tight Lifting or Time Reverse — which one should you pick?
They differ in where the formula puts its weight, not in quality. Tight Lifting is the firming-focused tube, with the ferment base, collagen, and elastin, and it is the one to reach for if the jaw and neck are your focus. Time Reverse is the all-round fine-line cream, with the higher Active-TECA figure. Both are genuine Centellian24, and both are 50 ml.
