In summer, I sometimes only applied this. It's not sticky and feels fresh... how should I put it... the finish is great! In winter, I use it along with a cream. My small blemishes have significantly reduced, and my complexion has brightened.
ConsWell... there's nothing bad to say! I'm extremely satisfied. During sales, they even provide refills, which is absolutely fantastic.

True to its name, this toner provides excellent hydration compared to regular toners. Its essence-like texture absorbs well without feeling sticky, leaving your skin moisturized. It's a toner that also helps with skin elasticity!
ConsI'm using this product so well that I can't find any downsides yet... If I had to nitpick, maybe the price?
TipDon't rush the absorption process. Gently pat it into your skin and layer it once more for ultimate hydration.

ConsIt's a bit too watery and runs easily, which is disappointing. The way it absorbs could be better

While it's not as elastic as I expected, it spreads smoothly and leaves a fresh, non-sticky finish. What's most impressive is how well it absorbs! You can really feel your skin drinking it up, but it doesn't leave you greasy. Instead, it finishes with a hydrated feel. I have dry skin that tends to feel parched no matter what I apply, but even though this product doesn't feel particularly rich, using just this rice essence after my usual toner helped alleviate some of that deep dryness (!) It's an essence, but with a generous 150ml volume. Compared to typical 30ml dropper-type essences, this will last much longer, which somewhat justifies the price point. Excluding the cap, the glass bottle gives it a substantial weight. The Hanyul basic skincare line has a rather luxurious feel to its packaging. Overall, it has skin-friendly ingredients. I'd recommend this if you're looking for a product that addresses lack of hydration, absorbs quickly, and has a lightweight feel.
ConsIt's not fragrance-free, so when applying, you'll notice that typical (and quite strong) cosmetic scent.

First off, it absorbs well and doesn't feel sticky or leave a film. It's so moisturizing that the skin feels great. I've been using it for over a week now, and it's gentle without causing any blemishes! It layers well with other products without pilling, so I'm really satisfied.
ConsThe pump on the dispenser seems a bit weak... I'm not sure if it's just mine, but it feels like it's creaking slightly when pressed.

It absorbs incredibly fast. After application, your skin feels breathable with a subtle glow and hydration, without any heaviness.
ConsWhile the scent is milder than a cream, which is somewhat better, it still has an out-of-place floral fragrance.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe texture is slightly milky and clear, reminiscent of rice water. It applies moisturizing without any stickiness, absorbs well, and leaves the skin feeling fresh after application. While the hydration might be a bit lacking on extremely dry winter days, it's generally good - neither too heavy nor too light. I found that applying an additional layer of moisturizer or nourishing cream works well. The pump packaging is convenient and hygienic, which is great!
ConsOn days when my skin is super sensitive, I feel a slight irritation. Personally, I'm not a fan of the scent. It reminds me of an artificial fragrance found in inexpensive men's toners. Being extremely sensitive to scents, I'm somewhat relieved that the smell dissipates after application. As for the brightening and anti-wrinkle effects, they're just so-so for now - I'll need to use it longer to see. I wish Hanyul would focus more on high-quality, substantial ingredients rather than fancy packaging and artificial fragrances.

Hydration: It's fantastic! When applied at night, it keeps your skin moisturized until the next day! Plus, it's not too sticky - just the right consistency, so your face doesn't get overly oily in the morning! Scent: Absolutely divine! Like most Hanyul base products, it has a lovely, non-irritating fragrance. The Red Rice scent is particularly pleasant and uplifting. Skin changes: There's a noticeable difference on days when I use this essence. My skin feels more hydrated, and makeup applies more smoothly in the morning. However, if you have oily skin, be careful not to over-apply, or you might wake up a bit greasy! It's great for all seasons, but I find it especially suitable for transitional weather like we're having now.
ConsApart from being a bit on the pricier side, I can't find much to complain about!
TipFor the best deal, try to snag it during an Amore Pacific sale.

The surface is oily, but it feels tight underneath. When I first used the Red Rice Essence, I was so impressed! Application: It glides on smoothly with absolutely no stickiness. Since my skin tends to be a bit oily, I really dislike products that leave residue, but the Red Rice doesn't do that at all, which I love. Hydration: I usually feel tightness deep in my skin, but after using the Red Rice, I don't feel that at all! It completely resolves deep dryness while keeping the surface of my skin moisturized yet fresh. Absorption: It absorbs well into the skin. When I pat it in gently, saying 'soak in well,' it absorbs quickly and I can feel the moisture both on the surface and deep down. As we head into the dry autumn and winter seasons, I'm confident I can keep my skin hydrated inside and out with just the Red Rice Essence, nothing else needed!
ConsThere are no downsides. It feels gentle on the skin while using it. If you're concerned about deep dryness, you absolutely must try this!
TipMake sure to let your toner absorb completely, then layer the essence two or three times. It'll feel like you've applied an emulsion too!
