Centella Serum

A centella serum is a dropper or pump leave-on, thinner than a cream and more concentrated than a toner pad. Shoppers typing this query want a face serum, not a cleanser and not a sheet mask. Listings here should show a liquid or gel that you tap onto damp skin, with Centella asiatica extract or madecassoside named in the formula story and on the INCI photo.

• Finish on the skin: watery slip, slightly tacky gel, or a serum that dries matte — match it to whether you layer oil or sunscreen next.
• Extract rank versus supporting humectants: hyaluronic acid and panthenol often sit beside cica; that mix changes slip more than the plant name.
• Dropper size and viscosity: thick gels clog cheap droppers; watery serums run if the pipette has no rubber bulb.

Use two to three drops on damp skin, then seal with moisturizer if your face still feels tight. Skip any listing that never shows the dropper or the ingredient panel, even if the thumbnail looks like a serum bottle.
