Take the skin testThe COSRX Ultimate Nourishing Rice Spa Overnight Mask is enriched with more than 65% of a rice extract which contains a variety of vitamins and minerals. It is the ultimate sleeping mask that provides intensive nourishment and deep moisture and refines and brightens the skin while you sleep! Wake up as if you just went to the spa!
Ultimate Nourishing Rice Overnight Mask is a lightweight sleeping mask from COSRX, a brand based in Korea. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 19 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. It contains both silicones and oils, a combination that usually finishes smooth and slightly satin and sits well under makeup. Hydration is handled by Butylene Glycol, Glycerin and Betaine, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Betaine and Ethylhexylglycerin.
On richness alone it suits Balanced, Combination (oily) and Oily skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, cell renewal and firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, microplastic-free and sulfate-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
Use it in the evening. In a routine it goes last step at night. Apply as the final layer so nothing has to push through it.
