Anua Rice 70 Intensive Moisturizing Milk

Editor's Take

The rice-milk idea earns its shelf space: serious barrier care in a light texture, though strict clean-beauty shoppers will spot the synthetic scaffolding.

Four-pillar formula scores

  • Efficacy: 8.8 / 10
  • Modern Tech: 8.2 / 10
  • Clean Beauty: 5.9 / 10
  • Sustainability: 8.7 / 10

The Verdict

Efficacy is Exceptional, led by 70% Oryza Sativa Rice Bran Water, Niacinamide, and a five-ceramide complex for dry or barrier-stressed skin. Technology is Highly Advanced, using ceramides, cholesterol, fatty acids, and a pseudo-ceramide to go beyond basic moisturization. Sustainability is Good, but the clean profile is pulled down by Vinyl Dimethicone, Polysorbate 20, and synthetic polymers. A credible daily barrier moisturizer with better lipid support than the average lightweight lotion.
