The Mary&May Rice Niacin 10% Triple Vitamin Serum is a potent brightening serum designed to deliver a clear, radiant complexion and improve skin tone and texture. Formulated with 10% Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), it strengthens the skin barrier, reduces pores, fades dark spots, regulates sebum, and improves signs of aging, making it suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin. The inclusion of 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C derivative, 10,000ppm) and Tocopherol (Vitamin E, 2,000ppm) provides antioxidant protection, reduces hyperpigmentation, and promotes collagen production. Panthenol (Vitamin B5, 30,000ppm) soothes and hydrates, while Glutathione enhances brightening by blocking melanin activation, oxidation, and epidermal migration in three stages.

About Rice Niacin 10% Triple Vitamin Serum

Overview

Rice Niacin 10% Triple Vitamin Serum is a lightweight serum from Mary&May, a brand based in Korea. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 26 ingredients, each broken down in full below.

Texture and finish

By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. Silicones in the formula tend to give a smooth, blurred finish and help it grip under makeup. Hydration is handled by Butylene Glycol, Panthenol and Glycerin, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.

What the formula does

Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Butylene Glycol, Panthenol, Glycerin and Water.

Barrier support: Moderate. Lipids and repair signals that support skin barrier integrity, and here that comes from Niacinamide, Panthenol and Hydrogenated Lecithin.

Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Niacinamide and Tocopherol.

Brightening: Moderate. Ingredients that act on uneven tone and post-inflammatory marks, and here that comes from Niacinamide, 3-o-ethyl Ascorbic Acid and Tocopherol.

Who it suits

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.

What it does not target

The formula contributes little or nothing on 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. One ingredient on the label has not been matched to our database yet, so the analysis above reads a slightly incomplete list.

Where it fits in a routine

It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after toner, before moisturiser. Apply to clean, dry skin and give it a minute to absorb before the next layer. Introduce one new treatment at a time so you can identify what is working.

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.

What is and is not in it

Part of this label has not been matched to our ingredient database, so only what is present is listed — no absence is claimed.

Contains

  • Silicones

    Vinyl Dimethicone

What to layer it with

Judged by the same curated rules our routine checker uses. It reads the ingredients, not the label.

Compatible with

  • Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid)
  • Retinoids (retinol, retinal)
  • AHAs (glycolic, lactic)
  • BHA (salicylic acid)
  • PHAs (gluconolactone)
  • Benzoyl peroxide
  • Azelaic acid
  • Copper peptides
  • Bakuchiol
  • Niacinamide
  • Hyaluronic acid
  • Ceramides
  • Signal peptides
  • Panthenol
  • Sunscreen

Nothing in this formula belongs to a group our rules can put in conflict, so it layers freely. Order still matters — thinnest texture first.

Where it fits in a routine

Morning Evening
  1. Cleanse
  2. Toning
  3. Treat
  4. Moisturise
  5. Protect

This product is the "Treat" step.

  • Apply to clean, dry skin and give it a minute to absorb before the next layer.
  • Introduce one new treatment at a time so you can identify what is working.

Safety and suitability

Flags to check, not verdicts. None of this is medical advice — if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or treating a skin condition, ask a doctor.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Nothing in this formula is on the standard pregnancy-caution list. That is not clearance — ask your doctor about anything you use daily.
Fungal acne (malassezia)
4 ingredients could feed malassezia: Cetearyl Olivate, Sorbitan Olivate, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Sorbitan Oleate. That is about the yeast's food supply, not a prediction that you will break out.
Sensitive and reactive skin
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
Recorded ingredient risks
