HARUHARU WONDER CENTELLA PHYTO & 5 PEPTIDE CONCENTRATE CREAM REFILL 30ML

Values: 100% Genuine (Adilsons policy) · Fragrance-Free · Halal-Friendly* · Vegan-Friendly*

If your skin is dehydrated-oily rather than truly oily — feels tight under the surface shine, especially by afternoon in Mauritius humidity — this cream's combination of humectants (Glycerin, Butylene Glycol) and barrier lipids (Squalane, Ceramide NP, Shea Butter) addresses the actual dehydration driving that oiliness, rather than stripping more oil off an already-compromised barrier.

Pros: real ppm-disclosed actives (rare transparency for this ingredient class); thick-but-non-greasy texture per multiple reviewers; fragrance-free; refill format reduces packaging waste once you own the jar. Caveats: requires separately owning the jar — this listing alone is not usable; the brand's 29.46%/41.40% clinical claim is brand-conducted with no public dataset; a minority of combination/acne-prone reviewers reported mild breakouts.

In Mauritius heat, sebum and sweat on the skin surface often get mistaken for "dirt," leading to over-washing that strips the acid mantle (target pH 4.5-5.5) and triggers compensatory oil overproduction — the exact oiliness the over-washing was meant to fix.

How this cream breaks the cycle: its Centella complex is anti-inflammatory and calming, while Squalane and Ceramide NP directly rebuild the lipid barrier that over-cleansing damages. Rather than adding more "product" on top of stripped skin, it replaces the specific lipids and moisture that a compromised barrier is missing, which is the actual fix for post-over-cleansing oiliness.

Classification: GREEN, leaning YELLOW for the peptide/Adenosine anti-aging framing specifically. Centella, Squalane, and Ceramide NP are broadly gentle and appropriate at any age for barrier support; the peptide complex and Adenosine are anti-aging actives with no real function on skin that hasn't begun showing fine lines — not harmful for a teenager, just unnecessary.

Bedside-compatible: yes. No rinsing, no precise dosage beyond "1-2 peas," no mandatory wait time. It works as a single-product finishing step in a bare-bones 2-3 product routine (cleanser, this cream, SPF in AM) on low-motivation days.

Sensory note: thick-but-non-greasy per most reviews, but if your skin state prefers something lighter on a hot, humid day, a gel-cream alternative may feel less heavy — see Sec. 15.

Step 1 — When: AM and PM, as your final or near-final step before sunscreen (AM) or a sleeping mask/occlusive (PM).

Step 2 — How much: 1-2 pea-size amounts for the full face.

Step 3 — How: press and pat into skin (do not rub), working outward from the center of the face.

The One Rule: Introduce this as the ONLY new product in your routine. Wait a full 14 days before adding anything else. This isolation window ensures you can identify whether any reaction is caused by this specific product.

1. Rinse or gentle cleanse. 2. Hydrating toner (1-2 layers). 3. Optional treatment serum. 4. Eye cream. 5. Centella Phyto & 5 Peptide Concentrate Cream. 6. Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ (non-negotiable).

Mauritius humidity note: the Glycerin and Butylene Glycol in this cream draw water from humid morning air effectively — in high humidity, you may need less product than the "2 peas" default; adjust down if it feels heavy.

1. Double cleanse. 2. Toner. 3. Treatment serum/active, if used. 4. Eye cream. 5. Centella Phyto & 5 Peptide Concentrate Cream. 6. Optional sleeping mask or occlusive seal on very dry nights.

This cream is not itself an "active lane" product (no retinoid, no acid), so it does not need skin-cycling rotation — it can be used every single PM alongside whatever active lane you're running that night.

Technique: Pat/Press, do not rub — friction reduces how evenly the peptide and Centella complex settle into skin. Required skin state: either, though slightly damp skin (right after toner) improves initial spread. Wait time: none required before sunscreen, though 1 minute helps if you tend to pill under makeup.

Hands vs. tools: hands deliver 100% of product; use clean fingers, not a spatula scraped straight onto skin, once the pod is decanted.

This is an encyclopedia map of all product types. You do not use all of these daily. You select modules based on your skin state.

Global rules: viscosity ladder thinnest to thickest, water-phase before oil-phase, treatments before seals. Wait-time defaults: watery layers 10-20s, serums 30-60s, before sunscreen 10-15 min. Amount defaults: toner 5-8 drops, serum 2-3 drops, eye product ½ rice-grain per eye, gel moisturizer 1-1.5 peas, cream 1-2 peas, sunscreen 2-finger rule. Hard cap: if the routine pills, stings, or feels heavy, reduce layers, not increase.

AM Maximum Stack: 1. Rinse/gentle cleanse (optional). 2. pH-prep toner (optional). 3. Hydrating toner layers. 4. Essence (optional). 5. Mist (optional). 6. Booster serum (optional). 7. Antioxidant lane. 8. Pigment lane. 9. Hydration serum lane. 10. Oil-control lane. 11. Peptide/repair lane (this cream's own peptides cover this role — skip a separate peptide serum the same routine). 12. Eye cream. 13. Moisturizer (this cream). 14. Optional seal if dry/AC. 15. Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ (non-negotiable). 16. Lip SPF.

In AM, prioritize comfort + SPF adherence over stacking. In high humidity, fewer layers often perform better.

PM Maximum Stack: 1. Micellar pre-cleanse (optional). 2. Oil cleanser (if SPF/makeup worn). 3. Water cleanser. 4. pH-prep toner. 5. Hydrating toner layers. 6. Essence. 7. Soothing serum. 8. Anchor active, if used (separate from this cream). 9. Targeted serum. 10. Moisturizer (this cream). 11. Sleeping mask (optional). 12. Occlusive seal (optional, avoid if clog-prone). 13. Spot treatment. 14. Lip sleeping mask.

Do not layer retinoids with AHA/BHA in the same night; keep "one lane" per night. One-lane rule: Retinoid OR Exfoliation OR Strong Vitamin C (LAA) OR Acne-control active per routine; barrier/hydration can always accompany.

This sits in the "medium-to-thick cream" tier — apply after every water-based and serum step, before only an occasional occlusive seal on very dry nights. It is a true emulsion (Water-continuous with an oil phase from Sunflower Seed Oil, Squalane, and Shea Butter).

Phase compatibility: water-phase base with oil-phase emollients — apply before any pure facial oil layered on top, after all water-based serums.

*Brand-conducted clinical test with no publicly available dataset for independent verification.

Purging vs. reaction: the mild breakouts a minority of combination/acne-prone reviewers reported are more likely a genuine reaction to the rich lipid content (Shea Butter, Squalane) than true purging — this cream contains no exfoliating or turnover-accelerating actives that would cause classic purging. If breakouts appear in new areas or worsen past 2 weeks, discontinue rather than waiting it out.

Prerequisites: none required — this is a foundational barrier moisturizer suitable as an early routine addition.

Barrier repair/redness: Madecassoside and Asiaticoside (Centella derivatives) are well-documented anti-inflammatory, wound-healing-support compounds. Fine lines/firmness: the 5-peptide complex (Copper Tripeptide-1, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Oligopeptide-29/32, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4) supports collagen signalling, alongside Adenosine, an MFDS-recognized wrinkle-improvement ingredient. Secondary: Squalane and Ceramide NP provide direct lipid replenishment.

What this product cannot do: it cannot reverse deep, established wrinkles or lift sagging skin — peptides support collagen signalling incrementally, not surgically; it cannot treat active acne or exfoliate; it is not a sunscreen and provides no meaningful UV protection on its own.

1. Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner — hydrates before this cream so the humectants have moisture to draw on rather than pulling it from deeper layers. AM/PM.

2. Black Rice Bakuchiol Eye Cream — extends the same gentle anti-aging philosophy to the eye area, applied before this cream. AM/PM.

3. Black Rice Moisture Airyfit Sunscreen SPF50+ — protects the collagen-support work this cream is doing. AM only.

4. Centella 4% TXA Dark Spot Go Away Serum — if pigmentation is a secondary concern alongside barrier repair, this pairs a treatment serum under the cream's calming base. PM preferred.

This is a conflict-solver for ACTIVE ingredients. If you run multiple actives, use these rules to avoid irritation, deactivation, and barrier damage.

Peptides × direct acids: this cream's Copper Tripeptide-1 and other peptides can be destabilized by low-pH acids applied immediately before or mixed in the same layer. Instead: apply any AHA/BHA/Vitamin C treatment first, wait 15-20 minutes for pH to normalize on skin, then apply this cream — or simply use acids on alternate nights from your main peptide-cream routine.

Copper peptides × Vitamin C specifically: if you use an L-Ascorbic Acid serum, apply it in a separate routine (AM Vitamin C, PM this cream) rather than layering them back-to-back, since copper ions can accelerate Vitamin C oxidation.

Do not layer retinoids with AHA/BHA in the same night; keep "one lane" per night. If unsure, default to the safest lane — barrier/hydration — and reduce layers.

Chronic stress elevates cortisol, which breaks down collagen, increases transepidermal water loss (TEWL), triggers inflammatory flare-ups, and compromises barrier function — a real, physiologically-grounded mechanism, not a wellness platitude.

This cream's Centella complex (Madecassoside, Asiaticoside, Asiatic/Madecassic Acid) directly targets the inflammatory and barrier-compromise side of that equation, while the peptide complex supports the collagen-signalling side. On visibly stress-flared skin (redness, tightness, sudden sensitivity), this is a reasonable frontline barrier-support product rather than introducing a new active.

Assessment: Water-Permeable (wudu-compatible), once fully absorbed (typically 2-3 minutes after application given the richer texture). Immediately after application, before full absorption, it behaves more like a light film — allow it to sink in before ablution for the most reliable result.

Adilsons provides this assessment based on the product's physical properties. Rulings on wudu validity vary between scholars. Consult your own trusted Islamic authority.

MYTH: "Refill pods are a lower-quality, diluted version of the original." REALITY: this refill is the exact same formula and full ppm-disclosed active complex as the original jar — refill formats exist purely to reduce plastic/glass packaging waste, not to cut corners on the formula.

MYTH: "Peptides don't actually do anything, it's just marketing." REALITY: peptide signalling on collagen production is a real, published mechanism in cosmetic chemistry — the honest caveat is dose and delivery matter enormously, and most peptide claims (including this one) rest on brand-stated ppm figures rather than independent third-party verification.

AC environment warning: Glycerin and Butylene Glycol in this cream can pull moisture from deeper skin layers instead of the air during long air-conditioned exposure. Because this cream already includes occlusive-adjacent lipids (Squalane, Shea Butter), it partially self-seals — but on very long AC days, a proper occlusive layer on top still helps.

*Emerging: Acetyl Hexapeptide-8's efficacy evidence is less robust and more brand-marketing-dependent than the Centella complex's; treat as plausible-but-not-strongly-proven.

Full INCI: Water, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Polyglyceryl-3 Distearate, 1,2-Hexanediol, Cetyl Alcohol, Cetyl Palmitate, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer, Sorbitan Palmitate, Sorbitan Olivate, Glyceryl Stearate, Stearyl Alcohol, Xanthan Gum, Glyceryl Stearate Citrate, Myristyl Alcohol, [--- Estimated 1% Line ---] Squalane, Caffeine, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Pentylene Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Adenosine, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Phytosterols, Lauryl Alcohol, Centella Asiatica Extract (150ppm), Hydrolyzed Pea Protein, Madecassoside (90ppm), Asiaticoside (60ppm), Caprylyl Glycol, Xylitylglucoside, Anhydroxylitol, Copper Tripeptide-1 (20.02ppm), Xylitol, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (10.02ppm), Asiatic Acid (6ppm), Madecassic Acid (6ppm), Glucose, Ceramide NP, Hippophae Rhamnoides Fruit Extract, Oligopeptide-32 (0.02ppm), Oligopeptide-29 (0.02ppm), Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 (0.02ppm).

*Squalane, Caffeine, the peptide complex, the Centella complex, Adenosine, and Ceramide NP all appear below the estimated 1% line. This is consistent with the brand's own disclosed ppm figures (as low as 0.02ppm for three of the five peptides) rather than a sign of fairy dusting — the brand is unusually transparent here about exactly how trace these actives are, which is worth noting honestly both ways: real ingredients, genuinely low concentrations.

Preservative system: 1,2-Hexanediol, Pentylene Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin, and Caprylyl Glycol form a multifunctional glycol-based preservative system, not a traditional paraben/phenoxyethanol system.

Fragrance status: Fragrance-Free — no Parfum/Fragrance in the declared INCI. Scent: essentially neutral, appreciated by fragrance-sensitive reviewers. EU 26 allergen screen: none detected in the declared INCI. Alcohol disclosure: contains Cetyl, Stearyl, Myristyl, and Lauryl Alcohols — fatty (moisturizing) alcohols, not drying alcohol; no Alcohol Denat./Ethanol present.

Additional note: Hydrolyzed Soy Protein and Hydrolyzed Pea Protein appear in the INCI. Neither is one of the standard EU 26 fragrance allergens, but anyone with a diagnosed soy or legume contact allergy should patch test before full use.

Halal:* Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available INCI data. No ethanol from fermentation, no porcine-derived ingredients, and no haram animal-derived ingredients detected in the declared ingredient list. This is NOT a formal Halal certification. Muslims with stricter requirements should consult their own scholars.

Vegan:* Haruharu Wonder is listed on multiple third-party cruelty-free/vegan directories as brand-wide certified, per search-summary-level research this pass. This cream's declared INCI (Squalane here is plant-derived, not shark-derived; Ceramide NP is synthetic) shows no animal-derived ingredients.

Cruelty-Free:* Brand-stated and corroborated across multiple third-party directories as PETA-certified brand-wide; not independently re-verified against PETA's own database this pass, and mainland-China retail presence remains an open question in our research.

Microplastic-Free: Yes — no film-forming polymer microplastics detected in the declared INCI.

MFDS classification: Functional Cosmetic (Wrinkle Improvement), brand-stated, built around Adenosine — Korea's most common MFDS-recognized wrinkle ingredient. "Functional" means the product underwent additional government efficacy testing for this specific claim; this was reused from the non-refill jar's existing research and was not independently re-checked against the MFDS public database this pass.

Clinical evidence: the brand states a 29.46% reduction in wrinkle appearance and 41.40% moisture improvement after 1 month of consistent use.* Evidence confidence: Low-Medium — a real brand-conducted test, but with no publicly available dataset for independent verification.

*Brand-conducted clinical test; no public dataset available for independent verification.

Fungal Acne Safety: FA-Conditional. Glyceryl Stearate, Shea Butter, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearyl Alcohol, Myristyl Alcohol, and Lauryl Alcohol all appear on stricter Malassezia-feeding ingredient checklists. Common and generally low-risk for most people, but a confirmed fungal-acne-prone routine may want to patch test carefully or consider an alternative (see Sec. 38).

Lipid ratio: the formula delivers Squalane, Ceramide NP, and Shea Butter's fatty-acid content, but the brand does not disclose the specific ceramide:cholesterol:fatty-acid ratio, so it cannot be confirmed as matching the skin's ideal 3:1:1 barrier lipid ratio — treat it as real, but partial, barrier lipid support rather than a precisely calibrated barrier-repair formula.

Assessment: Low-to-Medium. No specific pilling complaints surfaced in the reviews checked, but the cream's richness means layering it under a heavy sunscreen or silicone-based primer without a full absorption wait can cause pilling. Mitigate by patting rather than rubbing, using a slightly smaller amount, and waiting 60 seconds before the next step.

Baseline color: off-white to very pale cream. A shift to yellow/brown discoloration, or a sour/rancid smell replacing the neutral scent, signals oxidation — discard rather than continuing to apply.

Storage: once the refill pod is decanted into the jar, keep the jar's lid fully closed between uses and store away from direct bathroom heat/humidity, which accelerates degradation of the peptide and Centella actives faster than cool, dry storage.

Spoilage signs: separation that won't remix, a sour smell, or visible discoloration. When in doubt, discard.

Patch test: apply a small amount to the inner forearm, wait 24 hours, then behind the ear for another 24 hours, before full-face use — especially relevant given the minority of combination/acne-prone reviewers reporting mild breakouts.

72-hour barrier reset: if you get an adverse reaction, STOP ALL ACTIVES. For 72 hours, use ONLY gentle cleanser + plain moisturizer + mineral SPF. NO acids, retinoids, Vitamin C, exfoliants, or essential oils. After 72h, reintroduce ONE product per 14 days.

Emergency stop signals: hives, swelling, blistering, persistent burning, or any breathing difficulty — seek emergency care.

Pregnancy note: this does not meet the skill's hard pregnancy-unsafe criteria (no retinoids, salicylic acid, hydroquinone, or chemical UV filters), but published safety data on some specific peptide combinations during pregnancy is limited. If pregnant or nursing, mention this product to your care provider as a precaution rather than treating it as a confirmed contraindication.

1. Buying this refill without already owning the jar (it has no housing of its own — check Sec. 43 before purchasing). 2. Applying acids or Vitamin C directly under this cream without a wait period (destabilizes the peptide complex — see Sec. 15B). 3. Using too much on humid days (a smaller amount than "2 peas" is often enough in Mauritius heat). 4. Rubbing instead of patting (reduces even settling of the peptide/Centella complex). 5. Assuming the brand's clinical percentages are independently verified (they are a brand-conducted test with no public dataset).

Usage math: roughly 1-2 pea-size amounts per application, twice daily, from a 30ml pod. Lifespan: at recommended dosage, approximately 2-2.5 months of twice-daily full-face use; over-applying (using it as a thick mask-like layer) roughly halves that window without improving results. Reorder timing: plan to reorder your next refill pod about 2 weeks before this one runs out to allow for delivery time — you'll keep using the same jar indefinitely.

This cream is a barrier-repair, anti-aging-support finishing step, not a treatment serum — pair it with hydration underneath and SPF on top. AM: cleanse → toner → eye cream → this cream → SPF. PM: double cleanse → toner → treatment serum, if used → eye cream → this cream.

If your skin is barrier-compromised right now (stinging on moisturizer, visible flaking): this cream is a reasonable frontline barrier-support choice — its Centella and lipid content directly address that state.

If you are in AC all day: this cream's built-in lipids partially self-seal, but consider a light occlusive on top for very long AC exposure.

If you're combination/acne-prone and trying this for the first time: patch test and start every-other-day before committing to twice-daily use, given the minority breakout reports in Sec. 42.

Stock-true bundle: the Adilsons Curated Centella & Hyaluronic Barrier Relief Set (verified active, in stock) bundles this exact refill with the jar and the Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner — the simplest way to buy everything you need in one order if you don't yet own the jar.

After purchasing, you will receive our skincare education email series covering this product in depth.

The recommendations above are based on formulation synergy with this cream, not on margin or stock levels. If a pairing does not exist in our catalog, we say so. If you already own a product that fills the same role, use what you have first.

If you want a simpler, more straightforward ceramide-focused barrier cream without the peptide complex (e.g., if the mild breakout reports in Sec. 42 give you pause, or you prefer a leaner ingredient list), Haruharu Wonder Black Rice 5 Ceramide Barrier Moisturizing Cream 50ml (verified active, in stock) is a same-brand alternative built around capsule-technology ceramide delivery rather than the Centella-peptide complex.

Choose the Centella Phyto & 5 Peptide Cream over the 5 Ceramide Barrier Cream if you need: broader-pathway coverage — this product combines anti-inflammatory Centella actives, a peptide complex for collagen signalling, AND barrier lipids, rather than a lipid-focused formula alone.

IF you are combination/acne-prone and new to this specific formula, THEN the leaner 5 Ceramide Barrier Cream is the safer starting point given the mild breakout reports above. IF your primary concern is redness plus visible aging together, THEN this Centella & Peptide formula's broader coverage is worth the added complexity.

Don't upgrade to this from a simpler cream if: you're already breaking out from rich, lipid-heavy creams generally, or your barrier is currently compromised and needs the absolute simplest formula while it heals.

This product's PRIMARY function is: Centella-and-peptide barrier repair and mild anti-aging support, refilled into an owned jar. You do NOT need this if you already own an unopened, unexpired jar of the same cream, OR if you don't yet own the jar at all — in that case, buy the jar (or the bundle in Sec. 37), not this refill.

Inventory audit: check that your existing jar is actually running low before buying a refill — buying a second refill while one is still half-full and the first still has months of PAO left is unnecessary.

Stacking assessment: owning this cream alongside another rich barrier moisturizer with the same lipid/peptide role is Marginal Benefit at best — pick one as your daily driver rather than alternating two similar creams.

Haruharu Wonder has publicly warned via its official social channels that counterfeit versions of its products exist in the market. Refill pods carry no independent authenticity markers of their own beyond standard batch coding — check for clean, sharp label printing and buy only through authorized retailers like Adilsons.

Brand: Haruharu Wonder, founded 2018, headquartered in Seoul, South Korea. "Haruharu" means "day by day" in Korean. Hero ingredient: fermented Black Rice across the flagship line, though this specific product is part of the Centella-focused sub-line rather than the Black Rice line. Manufacturing model: not publicly confirmed as in-house vs. contract manufacturing.

Refill formats like this one reflect a broader brand sustainability angle also seen in FSC-certified packaging on other Haruharu Wonder SKUs — reducing the plastic/glass footprint of repeat purchases without changing the underlying formula.

Because this refill is the exact same formula as the original jar, the review evidence below reflects what a refill customer actually receives. An iHerb-style review described the cream as "thick but somehow not greasy, absorbs faster than it looks like it should," specifically praising it for dry, sensitive skin. A blog reviewer noted the peptide content left skin "feeling firmer and more elastic within a few weeks," while flagging the 30ml size as smaller than they expected for how quickly they used it. A more mixed account from a combination/acne-prone user reported mild breakouts, while still rating the overall texture and tone improvement positively.

Common praise themes: hydrating and soothing especially for dry/sensitive skin, non-greasy despite a thick texture, firming feel over time, appreciated by fragrance-sensitive users. Common complaint themes: 30ml feels small relative to usage rate; a minority combination/acne-prone breakout complaint.

Sustainability: this refill format directly reduces packaging waste — you keep and reuse the same outer jar indefinitely rather than buying a full new housing with every repurchase.

Do I need to buy anything else with this? Yes — this listing is the refill pod only. You need the original jar (sold separately, or as part of the bundle in Sec. 37) for this to be usable.

Is the refill the exact same formula as the jar? Yes — confirmed identical INCI, actives, and ppm figures.

How do I actually insert the refill? Remove the empty inner pod from your existing jar, place the new pod in, and twist until it locks per the brand's packaging instructions.

Will this break me out? Most reviewers report no issues, but a minority of combination/acne-prone users reported mild breakouts — patch test if that's your skin type.

Is the 29.46%/41.40% clinical claim independently verified? No — it's a brand-conducted test with no publicly available dataset for outside verification. Treat it as a real but unverified brand claim.

Refill pod

Best for: existing owners of the Centella Phyto & 5 Peptide Concentrate Cream jar who want to repurchase sustainably, or anyone assembling the full bundle for the first time via Sec. 37's stock-true set.

Key benefits: unusually transparent ppm-disclosed actives; real Centella-plus-peptide dual mechanism; fragrance-free; reduces packaging waste versus a full new jar every time.

Keep in mind: this listing alone is unusable without the jar; the brand's headline clinical percentages aren't independently verified; a minority of combination/acne-prone users reported mild breakouts.

Assessment: Consult Oncologist. This cream is fragrance-free with a mild glycol-based preservative system, which is favorable, but it contains an active peptide and Adenosine complex whose interaction with chemotherapy- or radiation-sensitized skin has not been specifically studied.

Consult your oncology care team before introducing any new skincare products during treatment.

Antioxidant pollution defense: the Centella complex and Caffeine (present in the INCI, below the 1% line) both carry real, if modest, antioxidant properties that offer some defense against Mauritius's year-round UV and, in July-November, sugar cane burning season particulate exposure.

AC/humidity swing interaction: Glycerin and Butylene Glycol content means this cream benefits from AC-day awareness — the built-in lipids (Squalane, Shea Butter) provide some natural sealing, but very long air-conditioned stretches may still call for an additional light occlusive layer.
