Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works

Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate suitability for oily skin due to the humectant action of glycerin and sodium hyaluronate, which hydrate and plump the skin without exacerbating oiliness.
  • While it provides excellent moisturizing benefits, it lacks specific ingredients to directly address concerns about oily shine.
  • The product is safe for your oily skin, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of harsh ingredients and the inclusion of soothing components like bisabolol and panthenol.

How to apply

  • Could be used as part of your AM or PM routine every day to keep your face fresh.
  • Apply this moisturizer after cleansing and toning, but right before your SPF in the morning.
  • Gently press a small amount into your skin and let it absorb fully.
  • Apply on clean, slightly dry skin to help control that oily shine.
  • Avoid the eye area and do a quick patch test before your first use.

People Say

★4.6Overall rating based on 1.3k+ reviews

Based on a very large amount of data, this cream is highly praised by users with dry and sensitive skin for its nourishing properties and ability to strengthen the skin barrier, often leading to a radiant glow. Users with oily or acne-prone skin, however, frequently find its rich texture too heavy or greasy, especially in warmer climates, indicating it is a polarizing product that performs differently based on skin type.

Questions and answers

How well does I'm From Rice Cream work for oily skin?

This cream works moderately well for oily skin by hydrating and plumping with glycerin and sodium hyaluronate without feeling too heavy. It is safe and soothing, though it lacks ingredients to directly manage oily shine. A moisturizing treatment for oily skin needs peptides and lightweight hydrating agents to control shine while keeping the skin barrier healthy.

Which ingredients make this cream a good fit for oily skin?

Glycerin and sodium hyaluronate make this cream a good fit for oily skin by hydrating and plumping it without adding extra oil. A product of this type needs peptides, lightweight hydrating agents, and ingredients that target oily shine while supporting the skin barrier.

What does Rice Bran Water do for oily skin?

Rice Bran Water helps keep oily skin balanced by providing lightweight moisture without clogging pores, and its natural properties may help calm the skin. This type of product needs ingredients that control excess oil and soothe irritation to truly fit oily skin.

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2022

What does Glycerin do for oily skin?
