Pibumi Pibumi Centellusion

Centellusion is PIBUMI's name for its centella asiatica complex. The "3X" in the Sika Cream products refers to a triple-strength or triple-compound centella formulation - typically combining multiple centella-derived actives such as asiatic acid, asiaticoside, and madecassoside alongside the raw Centella asiatica extract. These triterpenoid compounds have complementary effects: asiatic acid promotes collagen synthesis, asiaticoside reduces inflammation, and madecassoside supports barrier repair.

The "Sika" in the product names is a romanisation of the Korean pronunciation of cica (centella asiatica). The Centellusion line extends this core complex into skin-type-specific bases, which is uncommon in the centella category where most brands offer a single-formula cream regardless of skin type. This makes PIBUMI's approach more targeted than generic cica creams.

The Sika Cream 3X Dry (100 ml) is formulated for dry skin. The "Dry" variant uses a richer emollient base with higher levels of occlusive ingredients to prevent transepidermal water loss on skin that has a naturally low lipid barrier. The centella complex is the same across all three variants; the difference is in the moisturising carrier and texture.

Apply as the final moisturising step in a morning and evening routine on dry or dehydrated skin. In cold weather or on very dry skin, you can apply a heavier facial oil or balm on top for additional occlusion. The 2-pack and 3-pack sets of the Dry Cream available in this range offer a cost saving over buying single jars and are practical for consistent daily users.

The Sika Cream 3X Oily (100 ml) uses a lighter, gel-type or water-gel base suited to oily and combination skin. The oily skin variant provides the full centella complex for barrier repair and anti-inflammatory support without the heavier emollient content that would worsen greasiness or contribute to congestion.

This is the cica cream for skin that breaks out easily and tends to shine through the day. The lighter texture absorbs more quickly than the Dry variant, making it appropriate for morning use under SPF without risking pilling or a heavy finish. Oily-combination skin can use the Oily variant on the T-zone and cheeks across the full face without needing to separate out zones.

The Sika Cream 3X Lipopolymer (100 ml) is the variant for sensitive or barrier-compromised skin. Lipopolymers are polymer-lipid hybrid molecules used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic science to improve skin barrier function and drug delivery. In this formulation, the lipopolymer carrier improves the penetration and efficacy of the centella actives while simultaneously providing barrier reinforcement through the lipid component.

This variant suits skin that reacts to most products, skin recovering from procedures like lasers or chemical peels, or skin with persistent eczema or rosacea. The lipopolymer base is less likely to cause irritation than standard emulsifier systems. It is also appropriate for skin that is neither clearly dry nor oily but is consistently reactive to new products - the lipopolymer's gentle mechanism makes it the safest starting point within the three Sika Cream options.

The Centellusion Spot Cream (15 ml) is the targeted treatment within the PIBUMI lineup, applied directly to active blemishes and post-acne marks rather than spread across the full face. The 15 ml size is standard for spot treatments - small enough to use before the product degrades, and concentrated enough to function as an intensive local treatment rather than a maintenance moisturiser.

Apply after cleansing and toning, directly to the blemish, and before your full-face moisturiser. The centella complex in this spot cream reduces the inflammatory response around an active pimple and supports faster resolution of the hyperpigmentation left after the blemish fades. Consistent spot-cream use over four to six weeks on persistent post-acne marks (not active pimples) provides the best visible results for mark reduction.

The Centellusion Nanosica Acne Cooling Body Wash (500 ml) extends the centella complex into a body wash format targeting acne on the back, chest, and shoulders - areas where acne-prone skin often flares due to sweat, friction, and occluded pores. The "Nanosica" name suggests nano-encapsulated centella actives for enhanced delivery. The "Cooling" element indicates a cooling agent, likely menthol or similar, providing a refreshing sensation on application.

Use in the shower as your main body cleanser, focusing lather time on acne-prone areas. The centella active supports post-breakout repair while the cleansing base removes sweat, excess sebum, and surface bacteria. At 500 ml this is sized for regular daily use. Rinse thoroughly to avoid residue that can clog pores on the back and chest.

The Centellusion Sika Dry Cream 3X is available in a 2-piece set (2x 100 ml) and a 3-piece set (3x 100 ml) alongside the individual jar. The multi-piece sets are the bulk purchase option for consistent daily users who have confirmed the Dry variant is the right formula for their skin. At two to three months of twice-daily use per 100 ml jar, the 3-piece set covers six to nine months of supply.

The 2-pack and 3-pack are only available for the Dry variant in this grid - the Oily and Lipopolymer variants are single-jar only. If you are testing the Centellusion range for the first time, buy a single jar to confirm skin compatibility before switching to a multi-pack. The centella complex is the same across all sizes; the only difference is the purchase quantity.

Start with the question: does your skin run dry, oily, or sensitive? Dry skin with tightness and flaking: Sika Cream 3X Dry. Oily skin with visible shine and frequent congestion: Sika Cream 3X Oily. Sensitive skin with frequent reactions or a compromised barrier: Sika Cream 3X Lipopolymer. For combination skin, the Oily variant is the safer choice since a lighter formula on combination skin is easier to supplement with a facial oil on dry zones than to manage a rich cream on an oily T-zone.

If you have used other cica creams before without reaction, the Dry or Oily variant is the appropriate starting point based on skin type. If cica or Korean skin care is new to you and your skin tends to react, start with the Lipopolymer variant. All three variants use the same centella complex - the choice is purely about the moisturising base that surrounds it.
