How it works
Oryza Sativa (Rice) Extract is named on the ingredient panel on this cream. Rice Extract is the anchor of the Korean rice-skincare category. It carries starches, amino acids and ferulic acid, and it is used for the look of dullness and for a soft, blurred finish. On this panel it sits alongside Mineral Oil, Saponaria Officinalis Leaf Extract and Adenosine. Mineral Oil is a purified petroleum-derived oil. Cosmetic grade is one of the most inert ingredients available, which is why it appears in patches, balms and formulas for easily irritated skin.

Key actives
Oryza Sativa (Rice) Extract
Rice Extract is the anchor of the Korean rice-skincare category. It carries starches, amino acids and ferulic acid, and it is used for the look of dullness and for a soft, blurred finish.
Mineral Oil
Mineral Oil is a purified petroleum-derived oil. Cosmetic grade is one of the most inert ingredients available, which is why it appears in patches, balms and formulas for easily irritated skin.
Saponaria Officinalis Leaf Extract
Soapwort leaf extract. It is naturally rich in saponins, so it foams a little and works as a very mild plant cleanser.
Adenosine
Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated.
When in a routine should I use this cream?
Use it as the moisturizer step, AM and PM, as the last step of the routine. Placing a cream out of order is the most common reason a Korean routine feels like it is not working, so keep this one at its own step rather than doubling it up with a product built for a different stage. Give it a few weeks at that placement before judging the result.
Is this the same formula sold in Korea, or a US version?
This is the exact Korean-market formula, not a US-shelf reformulation. THE FACE SHOP sells a separate reformulation on some US shelves, and this listing is not that version. The Korean-market batch coding and packaging travel with it, which is the detail worth checking against the box on arrival.
Where does this formula come from?
It comes from the Korean-market catalog rather than a US-shelf reformulation, and the packaging carries the same Korean-market batch coding a shopper would find on the box in Korea. That sourcing is checked on this row before the page is written, not assumed from the product name. It is the detail worth checking against the box on arrival.
What kind of texture does this cream have?
THE FACE SHOP formulates its creams for the finish that format is known for: light enough to layer without pilling, and finished for a Korean routine rather than a heavier US-market equivalent. It is built to sit at its own step, not to double as a different product type.
Is this cream fragranced?
Fragrance varies by formula, and the box lists what this specific version carries. If fragrance sensitivity is a concern, check the ingredient panel on the packaging on arrival before working it into a routine that already runs fragrance-free.

How to use
- Use it as the moisturizer step, AM and PM, as the last step of the routine, giving it a moment to settle before the next step.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on the inner arm first if trying a new brand's formula for the first time.
- Stop use and check the ingredient list against any known sensitivities before continuing.
