The 10-second verdict: A rice-based cream that hydrates and gently brightens for a dewy, glass-skin glow. A little goes a long way and it suits most skin, even sensitive. The texture is fairly thick, so very oily skin may find it rich.

What it is

A nourishing moisturiser built on Korean rice, using fermented rice water and rice protein to hydrate, brighten and refine the look of pores for a glass-skin glow. The cream is on the richer side but still absorbs to a soft, dewy, non-sticky finish, and a small amount covers the face. It is vegan, gentle and suitable for all skin types including sensitive. This is the 60ml jar.

What reviewers say

Reviewers say it hydrates well and gives a healthy, brightened glow, with a light, pleasant scent, and several note a little goes a long way thanks to the rich texture. The honest notes: some find it thick or slightly film-like on application, the brightening is gradual and results vary from person to person, and very oily skin may prefer a lighter moisturiser.
