CENTELLIAN 24 Madeca Cream Time Reverse — Soin Restructurant Intensif

This pharmaceutical formula is based on a range of active ingredients designed to reverse the signs of aging without causing irritation.

Active-TECA™ (Titrated Extract of Centella Asiatica): this patented complex by Dongkook Pharmaceutical concentrates the four triterpenes of Centella — Asiaticoside (Asiaticoside), madecassic acid (Madecassic Acid), asiatic acid (Asiatic Acid), and madecassoside — in a three-layer liposomal formulation. These molecules stimulate the synthesis of endogenous hyaluronic acid and boost type I collagen production.

Niacinamide (Niacinamide): vitamin B3 regulator, it evens out skin tone, strengthens the epidermal barrier, and limits transepidermal water loss.

Ceramide NP (Ceramide NP): biomimetic lipid that cements cells together. Essential for maintaining the structural integrity of mature or fragile skin.

Retinol (Retinol): pure vitamin A derivative placed at the end of the formula, combined with Panthenol (Panthenol) to limit irritation. Accelerates cell renewal.

Aquaxyl (Xylitylglucoside + Anhydroxylitol + Xylitol): a trio of plant sugars that "harmonizes water flow" — meaning: captures surface water and prevents deep dehydration.

Resveratrol + Sodium DNA : antioxidant duo that protects cellular DNA against oxidative stress and premature aging.

☀️ Morning routine

1. After your essence or serum, take a small amount of cream.
2. Warm the texture between your palms.
3. Apply all over the face, smoothing from the inside out, focusing on marked areas (forehead, smile lines, jawline).
4. Gently tap to activate microcirculation.
5. Finish with your SPF: the melting texture does not pill under sunscreen.

🌙 Evening routine

1. On clean, toned skin, apply a generous layer (double the morning dose).
2. Leave on for 10 minutes if you want an intensive mask effect — the skin absorbs everything without leaving a greasy film.
3. In case of redness or after an exfoliating treatment, apply thickly and locally on sensitive areas.

This cream is designed for several specific profiles:

• Mature skin (35 years and older) looking to limit loss of firmness and the gradual sagging of the facial contour, without using overly aggressive active ingredients.
• Reactive or sensitive skin weakened by anti-aging treatments : the Centella + Panthenol duo allows you to continue a retinol routine without compromising the skin barrier.
• Complexions prone to diffuse redness : the 12 Centella extracts soothe low-grade inflammation responsible for accelerated aging.
• Dry or dehydrated skin seeking true nourishment — rich but non-greasy texture, ideal for winter or after age 40.
• Fans of minimalist layering : this cream acts as a repairing serum, hydrating emulsion, and protective balm all in one step.

Avoid if : very oily skin in summer (prefer the Zero version), allergy to citrus essential oils (contains Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Oil).

The first effects appear quickly: within 24 hours, the skin shows restored elasticity and immediate comfort. After two weeks of twice-daily use, the texture smooths, dehydration fine lines fade, and the complexion gains brightness.

At four weeks, structural results set in: the facial contour is reshaped, pores appear tightened, and diffuse redness diminishes. The skin looks denser, more plump — the characteristic "cushion" effect of formulas with a high Centella content.

Beyond eight weeks, the skin barrier is durably strengthened. Signs of fatigue (dull complexion, lack of firmness) decrease. This cream does not promise to erase ten years: it restores the skin’s functional balance so it ages better, more slowly, without oxidative stress or chronic inflammation.

Can I use it if I already have a retinol serum in my routine?

Yes, but make sure to introduce it gradually. The retinol in this cream is placed at the end of the formula, so it is at a low concentration. If you already use a pure retinol serum, alternate nights or apply the Madeca Cream only in the morning to avoid any sensitivity.

Is the texture suitable for combination skin?

It is rich but melts quickly. In summer or on combination skin, apply a thin layer in the morning or reserve it for the evening. Otherwise, opt for the Time Reverse Zero version, which is lighter and non-greasy.

How long does a 50 ml jar last?

About 2 to 3 months with normal twice-daily use. If you apply it in a thick layer at night like a sleeping mask, expect more like 6 to 8 weeks.

Does this cream contain fragrance?

No. The slightly herbal scent comes from citrus essential oils and Centella extract. It dissipates within seconds after application.

Can it be used around the eyes?

The formula is not ophthalmologically tested for this area. Avoid direct contact with mucous membranes. For the eye contour, use a dedicated product, then apply the Madeca Cream on the rest of the face.

What is the difference between the Time Reverse and the classic Madeca Cream versions?

The Time Reverse includes additional anti-aging actives: retinol, resveratrol, sodium DNA, ectoin, ceramides. The classic version focuses on soothing and pure barrier support, without restructuring ambitions.

CENTELLIAN 24 is the dermocosmetic brand of Dongkook Pharmaceutical, a South Korean pharmaceutical group founded in 1968. For over fifty years, Dongkook has focused its research on Centella Asiatica, initially to develop Madecasol, a healing ointment that has become a household classic in Korea.

Building on this unique expertise, the laboratory has applied its medical knowledge to cosmetic care with CENTELLIAN 24: a range designed to "keep the skin healthy and youthful 24 hours a day." The name also refers to the age of 24, symbolizing skin at the peak of its vitality — the goal being to preserve this balance for as long as possible.

All products are made in South Korea following strict pharmaceutical protocols. The Madeca line, a cornerstone of the brand, is based on the Active-TECA™ complex, a purified and encapsulated extract of Centella Asiatica standardized to maximize skin penetration. This triple-layer liposomal technology is the result of decades of R&D.
