May feel sticky for oily skin, results take time, not the best for severe acne.

Hydrates deeply, soothes irritation, strengthens skin barrier, lightweight texture.

Might feel too light for very dry skin, results are gradual, not ideal if you want rich night cream texture.

Calms redness, hydrates without heaviness, strengthens skin barrier, great for sensitive skin.

Texture is quite runny and you still need a second cleanser for a full double cleanse.

It deeply cleanses, helps with blackheads, non-comedogenic, leaves skin soft & hydrated.

Might not suit oily skin if layered too many times.

The I’m From Black Rice Toner is lightweight yet super hydrating, packed with antioxidants to protect and soothe the skin. It layers beautifully without feeling sticky—perfect for the 7-skin method or daily hydration boost.
