Centella Blemish Cream — Reddit Reviews
by COSRX
Updated September 16, 2026
Centella cream calms redness and dries active pimples; ineffective for acne prevention.
What the community says
A centella-based cream that settles redness and helps dry out active pimples. It's favored for calming inflamed spots and PIE fading but doesn't stop breakouts or keep skin clear long-term. Best as a spot treatment, not a daily acne solution.
What this means for you
What people love
Watch out for
- Not effective at preventing new acne or maintaining clear skin
- Mixed effectiveness; some users see no improvement after finishing a tub
