Updated Review: The Face Shop Rice Water Bright Set

Here’s my updated review on the The Face Shop Rice Water Bright Set! I loved it from the start, but things have changed. I noticed comedones and hard sebum in my pores. I noticed some blackheads too. Looking at the ingredients of the cleansing oil, it contains isopropyl myristate as the first ingredient. Yeah, I was hoping it would work. haha. That’s too bad. Isopropyl myristate is very comedogenic. I think I’m better off slathering EVOO or EVCO to remove my makeup. I stopped using the cleansing oil last night, and my skin looks better this morning. I tried using the foaming face wash without the cleansing oil this morning. And, it left a weird residue on my skin. I followed up with my original face wash Trader Joe’s Tea Tree Oil to remove the residue off of my face. So, I think I’m going to stick to my HG face wash. It worked in the past, and it’s working now. It removes excess oil, dirt, debris from my skin very well. Stick to what works ya know! lol. Yep, I’m done with The Face Shop Rice Water Bright cleansing oil and foaming face wash! It was nice to try it out, but it didn’t work for me. I don’t recommend it if you have acne-prone skin. I haven’t noticed my skin any brighter using them. It’s not on the skin long enough to take effect anyways. Well! I hope this review helped!

Here are my thoughts on the cleansing oil and facial foaming cleanser after using it for less than a week. I used it in the morning and at night.

The light cleansing oil is amazing. It truly does remove makeup. Even tough eyeliner and mascara! Before this, I was using EVOO or EVCO to remove my makeup. And, it was difficult to remove my eye makeup. EVOO and EVCO are heavy oils too. So, what’s up with that? With the light cleansing oil, it’s lightweight and glides effortless over the skin to remove makeup. I’ve tried rinsing the oil off with just water and with the facial foaming face wash. It works both ways. Yep, even with plain water. It rinses clean! Love it! I’m really in love with this cleansing oil. Quick tip: Use it on a dry face.

The facial foaming face wash irritated my skin at first. I am on a prescription cream that is making my skin very sensitive. But, the burning sensation diminished as I continued to use the face wash. It reminds me of the Neutrogena Visibly Even Foaming Cleanser. Does anyone remember that face wash? BTW, it has been discontinued many moons ago. Oh well. ??‍♀️ I like this foaming cleanser. It comes out creamy, foams up, and cleans the skin without leaving it dry.

My experience so far with the Rice Water Bright Set has been good. I’m going to continue to use it to remove my makeup, but also in the morning for that extra clean skin. I will still be using my Trader Joe’s Tea Tree Face Wash. Yes, I am cleaning my skin with 3 products. Keep in mind that I have extremely oily skin, especially during the summer months! None of these skin care products dry my skin out either.
