WHAT IS IT AND WHAT’S IT SUPPOSED TO DO?
I’m From’s Rice Serum contains 73% of Rice Germ Fermented Extract which retains more than 65% of the nutritional value in a grain of rice. It is rich in Vitamin B and powerful antioxidants which will boost collagen production and improve skin elasticity. [Source: Wishtrend.com]
PACKAGING
This serum is housed in a glass pump bottle with a sleek frosted pump cover. It gives off that luxurious vibe.
TEXTURE AND SCENT
The serum comes in between a gel and creamy white texture that gets easily absorbed by the skin. It has that serum factor that is not as light as an essence, nor is it as thick as an ampoule. It has a subtle sweet scent that doesn’t linger.
KEY INGREDIENTS

HOW TO USE
I use it after cleansing, or after essence, and before moisturizer both day and night. Dispense a small amount as smaller amount takes a long way!
MY EXPERIENCE
First impression. It’s the perfect partner for the Rice Cream! I first used this during the winter season, so it’s a good addition to my hydrating routine! However, I couldn’t get myself to always use it, which is a personal thing, but no doubt a great addition to your day and night routine if you’re a person who loves serums!
Texture details. It’s lightweight but it helped my skin from drying or flaking during the winter. However, I couldn’t give all the credit to this as I already have a hydrating routine, to begin with. It doesn’t leave any sticky feeling at all, instead, it helps give that bouncy feeling on your skin!
Hydration level. As mentioned above, I couldn’t give all the credit to this but it does help with hydration. My skin is okay without it too, but if you want that extra oomph for softer skin then you can add this to your routine.
Worth it for you to try? Of course! If you love the Rice Toner and the Rice Cream, then this is definitely worth a try only if you’re into that full routine with serums and all. Are you that kind of a person? Let me know in the comments below!
Final note. I am not so much of a serum user type of skincare enthusiast, however, I do love an occasional use of serum. This serum is one of those I’d love to use tonight for an extra TLC but it’s not always the case for me, luckily, for my skin. My skin is fine even without a full routine of all the extra products which I’m very thankful for, and even if I’m in the breakout phase I’d still go for a minimal routine as it helps me than using more products.
It’s one of the reasons I’m not reviewing a lot of products in a month as I take a lot of time trying out the products sent to me.
Rating:
- Collagen boost production ⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
- Hydrating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
- Improves skin elasticity ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
FINAL VERDICT and OVERALL RATING: I’d go for a 4 out of 5 stars rating which is really not that bad. It’s just a matter of preference. My skin is okay with using this and it’s also okay without it, you get where I’m coming from?
