General, ingredient-based — not your personalized match.
See how this fits your skin
Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testUnlock radiant, dewy skin with Hyeja's Vegan Rice Probiotics Gentle Ferment Cream (85ml) a lightweight, nourishing moisturiser crafted to suit all skin types. Enriched with soothing vegan squalane and Madecassoside, this cream instantly hydrates and cools, leaving a fresh, luminous glow. Powered by a potent blend of fermented Korean rice extract and nourishing probiotics (including Bifida, Galactomyces and soy-derived Lactobacillus) it supports a healthy, balanced microbiome while protecting the skin's natural barrier. It absorbs quickly into skin, delivering a dewy, non-greasy finish. Perfect for daily use, this gentle formula restores hydration and resilience with the simple power of Korean fermentation tradition.
Hyeja Vegan Rice Probiotics Gentle Ferment Cream is a lightweight cream from Hyeja Skincare. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 27 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. Hydration is handled by Butylene Glycol, Beta-glucan and Glycerin, 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, Beta-glucan, Glycerin and Ethylhexylglycerin.
Barrier support: Moderate. Lipids and repair signals that support skin barrier integrity, and here that comes from Squalane, Niacinamide, Ceramide NP and Madecassoside.
On richness alone it suits Balanced 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, oil control, 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, silicone-free and microplastic-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after serums. Seal in your serums with it; in the morning, sunscreen still goes on top.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
