Hiiiii! I would really appreciate your recommendations for bb creams and skin tints that suit oily skin. Cushions are nice, too. Would be happy to try a new brand this year. Thank you. 💚

I like this serum a lot but, its a little pricey for my skincare budget for a rice serum. I will buy another bottle though when it goes on sale.

For me, this serum is nourishing and hydrating enough. It makes my skin feel plump and healthy. A nice addition to my bedtime #wellaging skincare routine daily. I guess I just have to use it longer to see the brightening and firming effects, but I still like it.
Im happy I got to try this. It satisfied my need for a nourishing rice serum, and didnt break me out.

Rice is an ingredient you wouldnt normally recommend to someone with very oily skin like mine, but it works well for me. The almost-watery gel texture is lightweight, easily absorbed and non-tacky, when used alone.

Based from product description, this not only contains 73% Rice Germ Fermented Extract (which claims to retain more than 65% of the nutritional value in a grain of rice), but also Vitamin B (Niacinamide) and powerful antioxidants (Madecassoside, Portulaca Oleracea Extract).

Other interesting ingredients I saw on the IL are Squalane, Panthenol, Adenosine and Sodium Hyaluronate. Plus points that its free from alcohol, essential oils and fragrance.

Price check - 27USD (approx 1297PHP). A bit pricey for my skincare budget for a rice serum, but might purchase if it goes on sale.

I like this one a lot. Has a thin cream texture (watery-cream-like)  that is lightweight and spreads smoothly on skin. Non-tacky and  easily absorbed when used alone. Glad to add that it doesnt pill, and I can apply my bbcream on top with no issues. Also has a pleasant scent that is not bothersome for me.

The finish is dewy for me, but it doesnt feel greasy. Feels refreshing and cool on skin when applied, and it hydrates a bit, too. And yas, it leaves very little to no whitecast on my light brown skin.
Of course, YMMV.

Nothing bad, for me. I just need to use it a bit longer to reap all the benefits. 

I love their Rhodiola Relief Toner and Lively Triple Cream, and this highly-concentrated double functional ampoule was worth the wait as it offers premium care for brightening and well-aging. 
- Key ingredients are winners, for me: 120,000ppm Rhodiola extract, 50,000ppm Niacinamide, 30,000ppm Tranexamic acid, 500ppm Glutathione, and different types of Hyaluronic Acid. Add Patented Phyto Amino Acid Complex. Yas.
- Milky white texture is viscous with a good slip, and spreads smoothly on skin. Absorbs nicely (give it a minute or so), leaving a non-tacky and silky finish with a healthy glow. Gives a light, cooling effect on skin that makes application refreshing as well. To add, I like the calming scent - not too strong, and it dissipates after a few mins.
- I havent used this that long yet - but right now, Im loving it because its nourishing. Gives my skin the hydration and moisture it needs. This is a part of my bedtime routine - I use it solo during daytime. 
Now, the formulation is a winner for me, and it makes me want to keep using it every day as part of my well-aging routine. Those ingredients. I need them. And, I trust that this will brighten my skin as long as I use it consistently. I will.
Of course, YMMV.

Dyou like rice in skincare? I do. Meet my new love. This is a vegan & cruelty-free moisturizing cream formulated with rice milk to retain moisture, and rich aqua ceramide to repair and strengthen the skin barrier.

💛thoughts&xperience (ymmv):
Yas, this keeps my skin moisturized for long hours. I like that it makes my skin feel soft and plump.
The cream texture is thick, but it doesnt feel too heavy on my skin. Rich cream takes some time to absorb, but I dont mind - Im just happy that its non-greasy and not that sticky. Yeah, Im enjoying that texture. Glides smoothly on skin, no tugs. 
- I like applying this generously at bedtime. Yours truly have oily skin thats why I prefer using this at night, plus the weather here is hot & humid, so nope to daytime, xcept on weekends when Im just at home being lazy and sleepy.
- Also glad that this rice goodness doesnt make my skin itch. No irritation. Just well-moisturized, healthy skin.
- Good to know: Free from 18 harmful ingredients. Passed Skin Irritation Test. Sustainable packaging.
