An ultra-light moisturiser, for dry and dehydrated skin, to deliver 24-hour soothing hydration.
Rice Lipids + Ectoin Microemulsion is an ultra-lightweight moisturiser to deliver 24-hour soothing hydration and translucent-looking, radiant skin. The moisturiser delivers all the hydration of a rich cream in our lightest format.*
Optimising skin hydration requires a mixture of oil and water-loving ingredients. Rice Lipids, a lipid extract made from whole rice, retains skin hydration, and the supporting ingredient Jojoba Oil provides high emollience to reduce water loss from the skin. The amino acid derivative, Ectoin, and a blend of supporting Natural Moisturising Factors in the formulation have a high affinity for water molecules to boost skin’s water content and deliver deeply hydrated skin.
This face moisturiser provides intense soothing hydration from one use, reduces visible redness, and repairs the skin barrier, making the formula ideal to combat dry and sensitive skin. The microfluidised texture offers an ultra-lightweight emulsion that absorbs instantly without a greasy after-feel.
Rice Lipids + Ectoin Microemulsion can be incorporated into any skincare regimen for dewy and radiant skin. Apply Rice Lipids + Ectoin Microemulsion after Saccharomyces Ferment 30% Milky Toner for a 62% boost in moisture** and to boost firmness. 100% of users saw boosted luminosity and glossiness with one use together.
For very dry skin, layer Rice Lipids + Ectoin Microemulsion with another moisturiser. This moisturiser is also compatible under SPF or foundation for smooth, blendable makeup application.
Testing shows after the first use:
- Delivers 24-hour soothing hydration
- Reduces visible skin redness
- Skin looks more radiant and dewy
- Repairs the skin barrier
