AESTURA’S A-CICA365 COLLECTION Exclusively at SephoraDERMATOLOGIST-TESTED SOOTHING AND REDNESS RELIEF FOR SENSITIVE SKIN
INTRODUCING the A-CICA365 Collection, dermatologist-tested soothing and redness relief for sensitive skin from AESTURA, available exclusively at Sephora. A-CICA365 is AESTURA's dermatologist-trusted solution for visible redness and irritation in sensitive and rosacea-prone skin, powered by clinically proven soothing benefits and optimal pH 4.5 technology shown to support optimal skin balance for up to 12 hours1. A-CICA365 is a derma-calming solution that goes beyond surface soothing to visibly reduce redness by helping rebalance skin to its optimal pH 4.5 environment.
Accepted by the National Rosacea Society, A-CICA365 reinforces AESTURA's leadership in sensitive-skin care by expanding beyond barrier care into targeted soothing and anti-redness. Built on the correlation between redness and skin pH in sensitive skin, A-CICA365 is positioned as the complementary franchise to the core hero, ATOBARRIER365.
Maintaining the skin at its natural mildly acidic pH level (typically between 4.0 and 5.0) is essential for preserving the integrity of the acid mantle, a thin, protective layer made of sebum, sweat, and dead skin cells. This slightly acidic environment helps shield the skin from harmful environmental factors while supporting the epidermal barrier composed of corneocytes and lipids. When the pH rises above this optimal range, the acid mantle weakens, leading to reduced ceramide synthesis and compromised moisture retention. These effects are especially pronounced in conditions like rosacea, where elevated pH levels in the T-zone contribute to inflammation and redness. Using skincare products such as the AESTURA A-CICA365, which is formulated to match the skin’s natural pH, helps reinforce the acid mantle, maintain the skin’s moisture barrier function, and promote overall skin health.1
Each product in the A-CICA365 collection is formulated with pH4.5CICA™, a proprietary complex composed of concentrated CICA (Centella Asiatica), Zinc + PHA, as well as Niacinamide that soothes skin and reduces visible redness2. All three products in the ACICA365 collection contain a pioneering 3D netting structure with cross-linked HA polymer network technology that encapsulates pH4.5CICATM to maintain the skin’s pH at a mildly acidic level for up to 12 hours3.
The 3-step A-CICA365 soothing and redness relief ritual begins with A-CICA365 SOOTHING RELIEF SERUM pH4.5, a lightweight soothing serum that calms and soothes compromised skin.
