The Face Shop Rice Ceramide Cream Hydrating Face Moisturizer — 1.69 fl oz, Lightweight & Fast-Absorbing

The Face Shop Rice Ceramide Cream is a fast-absorbing, lightweight face moisturizer that restores skin hydration and helps lock in moisture with plant-derived ceramides and rice extracts.

This cream blends rice-derived ingredients with nano-processed ceramide to deliver a silky, non-greasy moisturizing layer. Formulated for dry to combination skin, the texture absorbs quickly and supports the skin’s natural barrier without heavy residue. The formula also includes gentle emollients and humectants like glycerin and shea butter to maintain softness and comfort throughout the day.

How does this cream restore moisture without feeling heavy?

The Face Shop uses a lightweight base of caprylic/capric triglyceride, cyclopentasiloxane and glycerin to provide immediate hydration while keeping the texture airy. Nano-sized ceramides are included to integrate with the skin surface and help reduce moisture loss. This creates a hydrated, smooth finish rather than an oily film.

• Fast-absorbing silicone esters and emollients for a silky feel
• Glycerin and betaine act as humectants to draw in moisture
• Plant-derived ceramide NP and glycosphingolipids help reinforce the moisture barrier

Will this moisturizer suit sensitive or combination skin?

The formula emphasizes mild, naturally derived ingredients like rice extract, rice bran oil, and vegetable ceramides to lower irritation potential. It avoids heavy occlusives as a main base, making it appropriate for combination skin that needs hydration without pore-clogging weight. Patch testing is recommended if you have reactive skin or known sensitivities.

• Rice extract and rice bran oil for gentle conditioning and light nourishment
• Shea butter for balanced emollience without extreme greasiness
• Designed to be mild and smooth for normal to sensitive skin types

How should I incorporate this cream into my daily routine?

Apply after cleansing and a serum or essence while skin is slightly damp to lock in hydration. A small pea-sized amount spreads easily over face and neck; massage until fully absorbed. It can be used morning and night and layered under sunscreen during the day.

• Use post-toner or serum to seal in active treatments
• Suitable as the final step in evening skincare or before SPF in the morning
• Works well under makeup thanks to its quick-absorbing texture

What key ingredients are in the Rice Ceramide Cream and why they matter?

The formula combines rice-derived components with ceramides and gentle emollients to hydrate and support the skin surface. Nano ceramides are included to enhance ingredient delivery to the upper skin layers, while rice extracts help with mild exfoliation and softening. Complementary stabilizers and silicones create a pleasant spreadable cream.

• Ceramide NP and glycosphingolipids for barrier support
• Oryza sativa (rice) extract and rice bran oil for conditioning and subtle smoothing
• Glycerin, betaine, and shea butter for lasting hydration and texture balance

Who is this for: The Face Shop Rice Ceramide Cream is aimed at people with dry, dehydrated, or combination skin who want a lightweight, fast-absorbing moisturizer that strengthens the skin’s barrier without a heavy finish. It’s a good option for those who prefer plant-derived ceramides and rice-based ingredients in a daily moisturizer. If you have very oily or acne-prone skin, try a patch test first or consult product reviews to ensure it meets your needs.
