The Ordinary Rice Lipids + Ectoin Microemulsion is an ultra-lightweight facial moisturizer that delivers up to 24 hours of soothing hydration while helping restore the skin’s barrier and reducing visible redness.

Designed to combine the hydrating power of a rich cream with a weightless texture, this microemulsion blends oil- and water-loving ingredients to lock in moisture without greasiness. Key actives — rice-derived lipids, jojoba oil, ectoin and Natural Moisturizing Factors — work together to increase skin water content, calm irritation and promote a dewy, radiant appearance. Clinical testing shows improved hydration, reduced redness and enhanced luminosity for many users.

How does this microemulsion hydrate without feeling heavy?

The formula uses micro-fluidized emulsion technology to deliver lipids and humectants in an ultra-light format that absorbs quickly. Instead of a dense cream, the product spreads evenly and sinks in, giving the sensation of a light serum with cream-like moisture.

  • Rice Lipids: plant-derived lipids that help retain hydration
  • Jojoba Oil: high emollience reduces trans-epidermal water loss
  • Ectoin & NMF blend: attract and bind water molecules for longer-lasting moisture
  • Microemulsion texture: instant absorption, no greasy residue

Will it calm redness and support a damaged skin barrier?

Yes — clinical evaluations indicate the formula reduces visible redness and helps repair the barrier after a single application for many participants. The combination of soothing ectoin and replenishing lipids helps the skin feel more comfortable and resilient.

  • Ectoin: an amino-acid derivative known for soothing properties
  • Lipid replenishment: restores the skin’s protective layer
  • Fast-acting: reports of calming and barrier support after one use

How should I layer this in my skincare routine?

Use Rice Lipids + Ectoin Microemulsion after water-based treatments, such as toners or serums, and before sunscreen or makeup. For very dry skin, apply this microemulsion then follow with a richer cream to seal in extra moisture.

  • Apply after cleansing and toning — works particularly well after Saccharomyces Ferment 30% Milky Toner
  • Can be used under SPF and foundation for smooth application
  • Layer with a heavier moisturizer for prolonged hydration if needed

What results can I expect and when?

Users report immediate soothing and improved hydration, with measurable 24-hour moisture retention after a single use in clinical testing. With consistent use, skin often appears more radiant and glossy, and sensitivity-related redness tends to diminish.

  • Instant absorbency and calming effect
  • 24-hour hydration observed in clinical testing
  • Improved luminosity with repeated use, especially paired with the Milky Toner

Who is this for: This microemulsion is formulated for dry or sensitive skin types seeking substantial hydration without heavy creams. It suits anyone who wants a lightweight, fast-absorbing moisturizer that plays well under sunscreen or makeup, and it can be layered for very dry skin. Ideal for those looking to calm redness, support barrier repair and enjoy a dewy finish without oily residue.
