Key ingredients
These are the ingredients Axis-Y highlights for this product, cross-checked against general dermatological and cosmetic-chemistry sources, not a full INCI list.
Fragrance: No fragrance or essential oil appears in the published ingredient list; brand confirmation pending.
| Ingredient | What it is | What it does for skin |
|---|---|---|
| Centella asiatica | A plant extract, also called Cica or tiger grass, long used in traditional medicine for wound healing. | Calms redness and irritation and supports the skin barrier; some preclinical and limited clinical research suggests it may also support collagen production, though more rigorous long-term studies are still needed to confirm this. |
| Asiaticoside | One of centella asiatica's primary triterpenoid glycosides, alongside madecassoside. | Studied for supporting wound healing and collagen synthesis; often included alongside madecassoside for a broader range of centella's soothing and repair-supporting effects. |
| Niacinamide | A form of vitamin B3, one of the most studied ingredients in cosmetic dermatology. | Strengthens the skin barrier by boosting ceramide production, helps even out tone by limiting pigment transfer to skin cells, and can reduce the look of enlarged pores. |
| Sodium hyaluronate | The salt form of hyaluronic acid, commonly used for its water solubility and stability in formulas; molecular weight varies by product rather than being uniformly smaller. | Draws and holds moisture the same way hyaluronic acid does; how easily it absorbs depends on the specific molecular weight used, which formulas don't always disclose. |
| Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid | Hyaluronic acid broken down into smaller fragments for easier absorption. | Delivers hydration to the skin's upper layers more readily than larger-molecule hyaluronic acid. |
| Ceramide NP | One specific, well-studied type of ceramide used in skincare formulas. | Reinforces the skin barrier and helps it retain moisture, the same core ceramide function. |
| Adenosine | A compound naturally present in skin cells, used in skincare as an anti-aging active. | Recognized by South Korea's MFDS as a functional anti-wrinkle ingredient at 0.04% concentration, based on clinical studies showing measurable fine-line improvement; a real but modest effect, not a retinoid substitute. |
| Houttuynia cordata extract | An extract of heartleaf (Houttuynia cordata), a herb popular in Korean skincare. | Used for its soothing and calming positioning; evidence is mostly from lab studies. |
