Torriden Balanceful Cica Calming Serum 50ml + Mask 10-Sheet Set

Features

The Torriden Balanceful Cica line, featuring the Balanceful Serum and Balanceful Cica Mask, is specifically formulated for sensitive, combination, and acne-prone skin types struggling with clogged pores, excess sebum, and frequent irritation. Powered by Torriden's patented T-Percent Calming Complex and a 5D Complex Cica, this line delivers gentle yet intensive soothing care to restore skin balance.

At the core of this formula is T-TECA, which is designed to be 1/10,000 of the average pore size (with an average pore size calculated between 250 to 500 micrometers). This micro-sized soothing component penetrates deeply and densely into irritated skin. The advanced T-TECA Drop System encapsulates these active ingredients in liposomes to deliver them stably, safely, and effectively into the skin barrier.

Formulated with a mild acidic (low pH) formula, these products mimic the natural pH of healthy skin to maintain a balanced, comfortable skin environment. Additionally, Torriden supports environmental sustainability by using FSC-certified 100% recycled paper, soy ink printing, recycled PCR materials, and water-soluble peel-off labels that easily separate in water.

Benefits

This line provides intensive, non-sticky calming care. The Balanceful Serum features a refreshing water-gel texture that spreads smoothly and absorbs quickly without leaving any greasy residue, making it ideal for year-round daily use. It helps regulate sebum production and clear away dead skin cells using LHA, a gentle exfoliating ingredient.

The Balanceful Cica Mask offers rapid redness relief and skin barrier improvement. It uses a soft, highly adhering Tencel-blend sheet that clings tightly to the skin without slipping, ensuring the rich calming essence is fully delivered to sensitive skin.

Clinical test results

In a 4-week non-comedogenic clinical trial for the Balanceful Serum, participants showed an 18.7% reduction in sebum levels, decreasing from 70.5 before use to 57.3 after 4 weeks of use.

A skin-soothing evaluation under chemical irritation demonstrated that the Balanceful Serum improved skin soothing by 3.1 times compared to the untreated area (21.16% improvement vs 6.73%) after 2 days of use. It also showed a 17-fold improvement in redness soothing compared to the control area (6.71% improvement vs 0.39%). Primary skin irritation tests on sensitive skin also confirmed the serum's low-irritation profile.

For the Balanceful Cica Mask, clinical tests on skin temporarily irritated by infrared rays demonstrated a 60.01% improvement in redness immediately after a single use. In a satisfaction survey, 100% of participants reported feeling rich moisture, experienced soothing of irritated skin, felt redness was relieved, and felt sensitive skin became stabilized.

Usage instructions

For the Balanceful Serum, apply an appropriate amount evenly over the face after refining skin texture. Gently pat to promote absorption. For days when the skin feels extra sensitive, apply one or two additional layers for enhanced soothing care.

For the Balanceful Cica Mask, apply the mask sheet evenly onto the face after cleansing. Leave on for 15 to 20 minutes, then remove the mask and gently tap the remaining essence into the skin. Layer with the Balanceful Serum or Cream afterward to maximize the soothing effects.
