Farmstay Cica Farm Recovery Ampoule

It's a concentrated leave-on ampoule for stressed, reactive skin. A rich centella asiatica complex with niacinamide, panthenol and allantoin helps skin look calmer and more even and feel soothed and comfortable. Used after toner and before moisturiser, it's a good step for skin that flushes easily or feels tight, morning or night.

After cleansing and toner, before moisturiser. Smooth a few drops over the face and massage gently in circular motions until absorbed, then follow with your cream. It layers well morning and evening. In the morning, always finish with sunscreen — soothing ampoules pair best with daily SPF over the top for comfortable, even-looking skin.

Yes — this is one of its main strengths. The high centella content plus panthenol and allantoin make it a comfortable choice for skin that reddens easily or feels tight and stressed. It does contain fragrance, so if you're fragrance-sensitive, patch test on the inner arm first and introduce it gradually rather than all over at once.

This ampoule uses a full centella profile — the extract sits very high in the formula, alongside its key compounds madecassoside, asiaticoside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid. Together they give it the calm, comforting character centella is known for, which is why it's positioned for skin that needs soothing rather than a strong active treatment.

Niacinamide sits near the top of the ingredient list and is valued for supporting an even-looking tone and a balanced, comfortable feel. Combined with the centella complex, it makes this ampoule useful for reactive skin that's also left with uneven patches or post-blemish marks — helping the complexion look calmer and more even over consistent use.

Yes, and it pairs well with them. On evenings you use a retinol or an exfoliating acid, this soothing ampoule is a comforting companion step that helps skin feel calm afterwards. Introduce one active at a time, keep this as your steady soothing layer, and always wear sunscreen the next day when using actives.

The terms overlap. An ampoule is traditionally a more concentrated, targeted step, while a serum is the everyday treatment layer. Use this as you would a serum: after toner, before moisturiser. Its rich centella content makes it feel like a focused soothing treatment, but it's gentle enough for daily use in most routines.
