What it is
What it is
BIODERMA Cicabio Cream+ is a 40ml finishing moisturizer. It is distinct from Cicabio Cream+ SPF50+. This page covers the regular cream, so it does not borrow a sunscreen factor from the other product. A Cica name also does not justify assuming a Centella-led formula or a post-procedure use instruction.
Start with the actual composition
The list begins with Water, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Glycerin, Polyglyceryl-3 Polyricinoleate and Rapeseed Oil. Jojoba Oil and Squalane are separate entries. Sodium Polyglutamate, Sodium Hyaluronate and Acetyl Dipeptide-1 Cetyl Ester are listed too. These describe a cream formula, not a record of wound healing, a fixed recovery timeline or firsthand texture.
Keep the regular cream's scope
The Korean official store directs an appropriate amount to be spread at the cream step and allowed to settle. It lists no functional-cosmetic category. Do not count this product as sun protection or turn repair wording into instructions for treating a wound. The disclosed warnings advise against use on wounded areas.
No Fragrance entry appears in this formula, but that is not a guarantee against reactions to other ingredients. Check known personal reactions, including oil ingredients. Cream, pomade and SPF variants from the same brand still have separate instructions.
MEDIHEAL Madecassoside Cream provides a comparison for Centella-related entries and aromatic oils. ma:nyo Panthetoin Cream provides another Panthenol-and-Ectoin composition. These are alternative finishing creams, not a requirement to stack all three.
Separate the 40ml bottle from 100ml sizes, sunscreen variants and gifts. The official Korean disclosure gives three years from manufacture and recommends six months after opening. Check the actual tube rather than borrowing another cream's period.

Key ingredients
A glycosaminoglycan found in human skin and joints, notable for how much water it can draw in and hold. Cosmetics usually use the water-soluble sodium salt, though the acid form is sometimes listed directly. Molecular weight determines whether it sits on the surface or works down between corneocytes.
- SqualaneEWG 1
Squalene with hydrogen added so it no longer goes rancid, closely matching a lipid the skin already produces in sebum. That similarity is why it absorbs without sitting on top, and while it once came from shark liver, olive and sugarcane are now the usual sources.
The most widely used humectant in skincare, drawing water toward the skin and holding it in the upper layers. Its interaction with the skin's own water channels has been studied for decades, and it is mild enough to appear across a very wide concentration range. At high levels it turns tacky, so formulas usually pair it with lighter humectants.
