Review on 🍚 [I'm From] Rice Toner, 5.07 fl oz: Hydrating Glow Essence for Dry Skin by Kelly Thompson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good but not for dry skin

I have dry skin. James Welsh on YouTube recommends this tonic and it's a regular part of his daily routine. For myself I bought this for its "soothing and brightening" effects due to the rice and niacinamide content. I swim and would use this after getting out of the pool after showering in the locker room. It just wasn't very moisturizing and I definitely had to use a heavy duty moisturizer afterwards. I didn't notice any difference in brightening effects. I use serum niacinimide regularly so I may not have had good results with this toner. It's also nice to note that I'm in my 20s, use a high dose of retinol for acne, and have sensitive dry skin. In general this may work better for people with oily to combination skin as my friend said it hydrates their skin and they have combination oily skin. It's not that strong at all for brightening effects, and I don't recommend it. I would add that this lasts forever and I give it high marks because my skin type was probably the problem and not the formula. The glass bottle packaging is also a plus because I was able to reuse it in my bathroom for other skin care products.
