The Face Shop Rice Ceramide Moisturizing Emulsion — 5.0 fl. oz., lightweight hydration with rice water & vegetable ceramides for b

THE FACE SHOP Rice Ceramide Moisturizing Emulsion is a lightweight, daily emulsion that combines rice water and vegetable ceramides to hydrate, soften, and help reinforce the skin’s natural moisture barrier.

Formulated for everyday use, this Korean-style emulsion blends rice extract and nano-sized vegetable ceramides with soothing emollients to deliver moisture without heaviness. The silky texture layers easily beneath sunscreen or makeup, making it suitable for morning and evening routines. It aims to improve surface hydration, gently exfoliate with rice-derived components, and leave skin feeling smooth rather than greasy.

How does this emulsion hydrate without feeling heavy?

The product uses a light emulsion base and finely milled ceramides that absorb readily into skin, providing lasting hydration without a thick residue. Rice water and lecithin add smoothness while maintaining a breathable finish.

• Nano vegetable ceramides for fast absorption and barrier support
• Rice extract and lecithin for silky, non-greasy hydration
• Light emulsion texture that layers under makeup
• Leaves skin soft without clogging pores

Can this help dry or sensitive skin feel more resilient?

Yes — the formula focuses on barrier reinforcement and gentle hydration, suitable for those prone to dryness or mild sensitivity. Vegetable-derived ceramides mimic natural skin lipids, helping reduce moisture loss while rice extracts soothe and refine texture.

• Barrier-supporting ceramides reduce transepidermal moisture loss
• Rice extract provides mild exfoliation and calming nutrients
• Formulated to be mild for normal to sensitive skin types
• Helps skin surface feel less tight after application

How should it be used in a daily skincare routine?

Apply after cleansing and toning while skin is slightly damp to lock in moisture. A pea-to-dime sized amount is generally enough; press gently into face and neck, then follow with sunscreen by day or a richer cream at night if needed.

• Use morning and evening after toner/essence
• Pat into damp skin for better absorption
• Layer sunscreen over it during daytime routines
• Can be combined with serums for targeted concerns

What makes the ingredients effective and gentle?

The emulsion pairs plant-based ceramides with rice-derived components and lecithin to balance nourishment with gentleness. Nano-processing reduces particle size so beneficial lipids penetrate more easily, while natural rice extract contributes moisturizing and surface-refining properties.

• Vegetable ceramides recreate skin’s natural lipids
• Nano technology supports improved skin uptake of ceramides
• Rice extract supports smooth, hydrated skin texture
• Minimal heavy oils keep the formula lightweight

Who is this for? This emulsion is suitable for anyone seeking lightweight, daily hydration that supports the skin barrier—particularly people with normal to dry or mildly sensitive skin who prefer a non-greasy finish. It works well for multi-step Korean skincare routines or minimal regimens, and for anyone who wants a silky, layerable moisturizer that can be worn under makeup and sunscreen. Avoid direct contact with eyes; if irritation occurs, discontinue use.
