Budget-friendly alternatives (dupes)
DUPES
Very similar cica-based daily mask with Centella 4X complex and patented Cicaliao/Cicahyalon. Contains fragrance unlike Medicube. Thinner 0.2mm sheet. Slightly less cica concentration but adds propolis and panthenol.
More affordable daily mask option with green tea extract. Lyocell fabric sheets. Simpler formula lacking the multi-cica complex and 7 types of HA. Good for basic hydration on a tighter budget.
Another cica-based daily cooling mask with centella extract. Designed for sensitive and acne-prone skin. Similar cooling effect and jar format. Lacks the 7 HA types and Super Cica 7 depth of the Medicube formula.

Frequently asked questions
FAQYes. The formula contains no retinoids, salicylic acid, hydroquinone, chemical sunscreens, or other ingredients commonly flagged during pregnancy. All ingredients are considered safe for use while pregnant or breastfeeding. However, always consult your healthcare provider before adding new products to your routine during pregnancy.
Use with caution. The formula contains Polyglyceryl-10 Oleate, an oleate-based emulsifier that can potentially feed Malassezia yeast, which causes fungal acne. If you are prone to fungal acne, it is recommended to patch test first or choose a fully fungal-acne-safe alternative like masks without oleate esters.
Yes. This mask is a soothing and hydrating treatment that pairs well with active ingredients. Centella Asiatica is actually beneficial for calming irritation caused by retinol, AHA, or BHA. You can use it before applying actives to provide a hydrated base, or after actives to soothe and calm the skin. It does not interfere with vitamin C efficacy.
This mask is suitable for all skin types but is especially excellent for sensitive, combination, and oily skin. The lightweight watery essence absorbs quickly without greasiness, making it ideal for oily skin. Sensitive skin benefits most from the 88% cica complex and fragrance-free formula. Dry skin types may want to layer a heavier moisturizer on top.
Immediate results include cooling (skin temperature drops ~7°C) and redness reduction (~5%) within 60 seconds. After one 5-minute session, skin texture improves measurably (~7%). With consistent daily use over 2–4 weeks, most users report noticeably calmer, more hydrated, and more resilient skin overall.
Apply after cleansing as step 3 in your routine (cleanser → toner → sheet mask → serum → moisturizer → sunscreen). You can skip toner before applying. In the morning, use it for 60 seconds as a quick protective barrier before makeup. At night, leave it on for 5 minutes for deeper nourishing care before your serum and moisturizer.
This mask has a very low comedogenic rating of 1 out of 5. The formula is water-based with no heavy oils, silicones, or known pore-clogging ingredients. It is unlikely to cause breakouts for most skin types. The lightweight essence absorbs quickly and does not leave a heavy residue on the skin.
The product has a Period After Opening (PAO) of 12 months. Since each jar contains 30 sheets designed for daily use, you will likely finish the product within one month of opening. Always keep the cap tightly sealed after each use and avoid reaching in with dirty hands — use the provided tweezer for hygienic extraction.
Verdict: The Medicube Super Cica Daily Quick Masks are an excellent everyday soothing mask for anyone with sensitive, irritated, or stressed-out skin. The standout 88% Centella Asiatica concentration with the full Super Cica 7 complex, combined with 7 types of hyaluronic acid and tea tree extract, delivers clinically backed soothing and hydrating results in as little as 60 seconds. The convenient 30-sheet jar format, vegan certification, and fragrance-free formula make it a strong daily-use pick. It loses half a point for the thinner sheets that can tear easily, the fact it is not fully fungal acne safe, and the bulky packaging that limits travel portability. Overall, one of the best value-for-money daily cica masks on the K-beauty market.

Understanding Silicones
If you've ever used a skincare, makeup or beauty product that's made your skin look and feel smoother tempoarily - it's likely contained Silicone. They are a popular class of ingredients found in cosmetics due to their smooth, soft, easy-to-spread and smooth properties that help creates an artificial layer/barrier on top of skin or hair (commonly found in conditioners).
For the same reasons they are popularly used, they are also commonly avoided. Anecdotally, many individuals have reported that Silicones cause/excerbate breakouts, irritation, cause a feeling of skin being unable to breathe, cause clumping of cosmetic products and find it difficult to wash off. As a result, those who find them problematic are avoiding them and increasingly, cosmetic companies are avoiding them as well.
If you have had bad experiences with Silicones in the past, or suspect they are problematic then look out for the tick on the Silicone-free label.

Understanding the Identified Contact Allergens
The EU's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) has identified and established 26 cosmetic ingredients that are likely contact allergens (potential to cause skin allergies) as demonstrated in clinical or epidemiological studies. The EU's SCCS have recommend cosmetic companies to disclose them on the labels if used and in cases where the concentration exceeds 0.001% in leave-on products and 0.01% in rinse-off products, then they must be labelled.
Look out for the tick on the EU-Allergen free label to know your cosmetic is free from any of the 26 identified cosmetic ingredients.

Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Understanding Fungal Acne (Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia Folliculitis)
Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia folliculitis or simply known as Fungal Acne is a persistent acne-like condition that commonly responds poorly to traditional acne-treating methods. Unlike most cases of Acne where bacteria is the culprit, Fungi is the culprit of Fungal Acne (Hence the name!). There are certain classes & groups of ingredients that have been shown to promote and feed the growth of the Fungal Acne, Fungi such as fatty acids, oils, esters, polysorbates and fermented ingredients.
For more information regarding Fungal Acne, please visit Simple Skincare Science (f.c) - #3 of our Recommend Skincare Resources for an amazing comprehensive guide!
Please Read: How to use the Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Label
At SkinCarisma, we've done our best to identify as many ingredients as possible but note the fungal-free label may not be 100% accurate due to the complexconditions and combination of ingredients that malezzeria can thrive on.
Additionally, products that may contain ingredients that have shown to feed Malassezia may not neccessarily exacerbate the condition due to concentration of ingredient used in the product, this information is simply not available on the products.
As a result, please note this is only an experimental label that can be best used to possible identify problematic products you have used in the past. It is in no way a perfect identifier nor a predictor in whether or not it will exacerbate or cause fungal acne. It will continue to be worked on as more information and research comes to light.
If you find any ingredients you believe should be included, please email us at snails@skincarisma.com.
Disclaimer
Due to the lack of substantial research into this area it is very likely there are other ingredients and class/groups of ingredients that could feed Fungal Acne which have not been indentified.
The Fungal-Safe label does not constitute as medical advice. For your specific case, always consult your medical professiona such as dermatologist, physician, pharmacist, or health care provider - please read our medical disclaimer for more information.
What are Notable Effects & Ingredients?
Ever used a product that promised a certain effect but provided no results? It might not have contained any notable ingredients that could have been responsible for that promised effect. It doesn't matter what the marketing or packaging «promises» it can do, if it doesn't contain anything that can help - then the likelihood of it helping is low.
We help you identify key notable ingredients that have been shown to help with effects such as acne-fighting, brightening, UV-protection, wound healing & anti-aging to help you achieve your skincare goals smarter. Please note that different notable ingredients have varying levels of research behind them, some are extremely well proven yet some have mixed research in their efficacy.
Pro Tip Alert!
Just because a product doesn't contain any notable ingredients doesn't mean it's bad. And a product with notable ingredients (or even many) doesn't necessarily guarantee the efficacy of the product performing these effects either. There are other factors such as ingredient quality, concentration and formulation that will ultimately determine this.
Be smart and use this as just a starting point for you to make more informed and smarter choices and compare it with reviews to see if the product is right for you

Pro Tip Alert!
A product that contains good or bad ingredients for your skin type doesn't always flat out make the entire product good or bad for your skin. There are other factors such as ingredient quality, concentration and formulation that will ultimately determine your skins reaction.
One of the best ways to use this section is to troubleshoot products you've had bad experiences with in the past. Check if it contains any of the marked ingredients to point out suspect ingredients to avoid in the future!

What is the Ingredient Safety Breakdown?
Ingredient Safety Breakdown refers to the percentage % of ingredients in different risk categories as classified by EWG (Environment Working Group) if they are available. There are almost endless cosmetic ingredients and they are one of the few organisations globally that have assigned ratings to a lot of the more commonly used ingredients which is why we reference them.
Pro Tip Alert!
EWG is seen by many to be more on the alarmist side in their assignment of health ratings resulting in rating ingredients as riskier than they actually are. We recommend using this a reference point rather than a strict guide of ingredient safety and to always do further research if into ingredients that you may find suspect.
