Dealing with skin that feels irritated, red, or stressed from the Mauritian heat and sun? This cream offers a calming solution. Formerly known as the Centella Unscented Recovery Cream, this upgraded formula provides rapid soothing for sensitive skin and helps fortify your skin's natural defenses against environmental stressors, all without a heavy or greasy feel.
At-a-Glance (30s) (who it's for, what to expect)
When your skin feels reactive and uncomfortable, finding a moisturizer that calms without causing more problems is essential. The Purito Wonder Releaf Centella Cream is designed for this very purpose.
- Texture: A rich but lightweight cream that absorbs quickly.
- Finish: Leaves skin feeling silky, supple, and comfortable without a greasy residue.
- Best For: All skin types, especially sensitive, combination, oily, and acne-prone skin experiencing redness, irritation, or a weakened barrier.
- Core Benefit: Provides rapid soothing to calm irritated skin while strengthening the moisture barrier to prevent future sensitivity.
Quick Start (60-second routine) (essentials for beginners)
- Cleanser: Wash your face with a gentle, low-pH cleanser.
- THIS PRODUCT: Apply a pea-sized amount of the Wonder Releaf Centella Cream and gently massage it in.
- Sunscreen (AM) / Heavier Cream (PM, if needed): Always protect your skin with SPF 30+ in the morning. At night, if your skin is very dry, you can layer a sleeping mask on top.
Note: Already own a similar soothing cream? Finish that first to avoid waste (substitute, don’t stack).
AM Routine Guide (morning order) (how to use in the morning)
Minimalist (3 steps):
- Cleanser: Start with a gentle face wash.
- THIS PRODUCT: Apply a pea-sized amount of Wonder Releaf Centella Cream to soothe and moisturize.
- Sunscreen: Finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher. This is crucial to protect sensitive skin and prevent irritation.
Optional: If you have specific concerns, you can add a targeted serum (like a hydrating or brightening serum) before the cream. In Mauritius' humid climate, this cream may be hydrating enough to use without a separate light moisturizer underneath.
Wait times: Allow the cream to absorb for 1-2 minutes before applying sunscreen to prevent pilling.
PM Routine Guide (evening order) (recommended for starting)
Minimalist (3 steps):
- Cleanser: Double-cleanse if you wore makeup or water-resistant sunscreen. Start with an oil cleanser, then follow with a water-based cleanser.
- Serum (Optional): Apply a hydrating or repairing serum like the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Ampoule.
- THIS PRODUCT: Apply a moderate amount of Wonder Releaf Centella Cream to calm your skin and lock in moisture overnight.
Texture rule: Always apply products from the thinnest to the thickest consistency.
How to Use (Beginner-friendly) (AM/PM amounts) (amount, frequency, and tips)
Daily Use — AM/PM:
- Amount: A pea-sized amount is sufficient for the entire face. Add a little more for the neck.
- Apply to: Face and neck, after your toner and serum steps.
- Method: Gently smooth and massage into the skin until absorbed.
- Frequency: Use morning and night for consistent soothing and barrier support.
If-This / Then-That:
- Very irritated skin? Apply a slightly thicker layer at night to act as a soothing mask.
- Oily T-zone? Use a smaller amount in that area. The lightweight formula is suitable for oily skin.
- Dry cheeks? This cream provides good hydration, but you can layer it over a hydrating toner for extra moisture.
- Using strong actives (retinoids, acids)? This cream is excellent to use in the same routine to help calm potential irritation and support the skin barrier.
Safety: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Patch testing before first use is recommended.
Weekly Planner (Example & Alternating Actives) (how to schedule use)
This is a gentle, daily-use cream designed for barrier support and soothing.
- Daily: Use AM and PM as the moisturizer step in your routine.
When using with strong actives:
- This cream is not a strong "active" itself, but a supportive product. It can and should be used every night, including on nights you use exfoliants (AHA/BHA) or retinoids. It will help buffer irritation and keep your skin barrier healthy.
-
Example Week (PM focus):
- Mon: Exfoliant -> Serum -> THIS CREAM
- Tue: Retinoid -> Serum -> THIS CREAM
- Wed: Hydrating Serum -> THIS CREAM
Mauritius Note: Its lightweight texture makes it comfortable for daily year-round use, even in high humidity.
What to Expect (Results Timeline) (immediate → 8+ weeks)
- Immediate: Skin feels soothed, comfortable, and hydrated. The cream provides instant relief from tightness and a non-greasy, silky finish. The brand claims a soothing effect on physically irritated skin within 10 seconds.
- 2–4 Weeks: With consistent use, you should notice a reduction in general redness and sensitivity. Your skin's moisture barrier will begin to feel stronger and more resilient. The brand's 4-week user satisfaction survey showed 100% of participants felt their skin was soothed and the barrier was strengthened.
- 4–8+ Weeks: Skin appears calmer and more balanced overall. It should be less reactive to environmental stressors. Continued use helps maintain a healthy skin barrier, leading to consistently calm and hydrated skin.
Myth Replacement (Why this, not that) (safer, effective alternatives)
- Why this, not DIY remedies for irritation? While things like pure aloe can offer temporary relief, they lack the comprehensive barrier support of a formulated cream. This product combines potent Centella Asiatica with Ceramide NP and Squalane to not only soothe but actively repair and strengthen your skin's protective barrier, providing more reliable and long-lasting results than simple DIY solutions which can sometimes carry contaminants or be unstable.
Compatibility Guide (what to pair it with)
-
Works Well With:
- Hydrating Toners & Serums: (e.g., Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol) to boost moisture.
- Brightening Serums: (e.g., Niacinamide, Vitamin C) as it helps soothe any potential irritation.
- Retinoids (Retinol, Retinal): An excellent buffer to use before or after a retinoid to minimize dryness and irritation.
- Exfoliating Acids (AHA, BHA): Perfect to use after an acid to calm the skin and support the barrier.
- Use Carefully With: No major incompatibilities. This cream is designed to be compatible with most skincare routines due to its focus on soothing and barrier repair.
Skin Type Compatibility (best fits and cautions)
- Sensitive / Reactive Skin: Excellent. Formulated specifically to soothe irritation and redness. The unscented version is ideal.
- Oily / Combination Skin: Very good. Its lightweight texture absorbs well without feeling greasy or clogging pores.
- Acne-Prone Skin: Very good. It helps calm inflammation from breakouts and supports the skin barrier, which can be compromised by acne treatments.
- Dry Skin: Good. Provides effective hydration, but very dry skin types might prefer a richer, more occlusive cream, especially for their night routine or during drier winter months.
- Normal Skin: Excellent as a comfortable daily moisturizer.
Targeted Concerns (what it helps to solve)
- Redness and Irritation
- Compromised or Weakened Skin Barrier
- Sensitivity from environmental stressors (sun, heat, pollution)

Is This the Best Choice for You? (Mindful Alternatives) (other options to consider)
This cream is an excellent choice if your primary concerns are soothing redness, calming irritation, and strengthening a compromised skin barrier, especially if you have sensitive, combination, or oily skin.
However, consider these alternatives from our catalog if your needs are different:
- For Very Dry Skin or Intense Barrier Repair: ETUDE SOONJUNG 2x Barrier Intensive Cream — Choose this if you need a richer, more occlusive cream. Why: It contains Panthenol and Madecassoside in a slightly thicker formula that provides a more robust protective barrier for very dry or severely compromised skin.
- For Oily, Acne-Prone Skin with Active Breakouts: SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Cream — Choose this if you need active blemish control in your moisturizer. Why: It includes gentle exfoliating acids (AHA, BHA, PHA) and tea tree to actively treat and prevent breakouts while providing lightweight moisture.
- For Anti-Aging and Firming: APLB Collagen EGF Peptide Facial Cream — Choose this if your main goal is improving skin elasticity and fine lines. Why: It is specifically formulated with Collagen, Peptides, and EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) to target signs of aging.
Mindful Use: If you already have a comparable soothing cream at home, finish it first to avoid waste and get a fair assessment of its results before trying something new.

Genuine Community Experiences (unbiased, real-user feedback)

- "I've been using the cream for two months and I love it. I have dehydrated, combination/acne-prone skin and this cream brings life and moisture back to my skin. I recommend it for people with a weak skin barrier." - Amazon Customer Review (2024-09)

Frequently Asked Questions (your questions, answered)
Is this the same as the old Purito Centella Unscented Recovery Cream?
Yes, this is the renewed and repackaged version. The brand has confirmed the beloved formula is the same, just with updated packaging and a new name as part of the "Wonder Releaf" line.
Can I use this if I have oily, acne-prone skin?
Absolutely. Its lightweight texture is non-comedogenic and helps to calm the inflammation associated with breakouts, making it an excellent choice for acne-prone skin that is also sensitive or dehydrated from acne treatments.
Is this cream moisturizing enough for dry skin?
For mildly dry skin, it should be sufficient. However, if your skin is very dry, you may want to layer it over a hydrating serum or use a richer cream at night. Many users with dry skin enjoy it as a daytime moisturizer.
Is this product "fungal acne-safe"?
It contains several ingredients (oils and fatty acids) that could potentially trigger fungal acne (Malassezia). If you are highly sensitive to these ingredients, we recommend patch testing on an affected area before applying it all over your face.

- Key Benefits: Calms irritation effectively, provides lightweight hydration without greasiness, and supports overall skin health. Excellent for use alongside stronger active ingredients.
- Keep in Mind: May not be rich enough for very dry skin types as a standalone night cream. Contains ingredients that could be a concern for those with severe fungal acne.
