"I feel the toner is too heavy and it doesn't absorb well, [...] so I wanted to give similar hydration level but this one a little more heavier than this, but I wanted to give the I'm From better point because it's very lightweight. My oily skin friend tried Lana's Cream Skin first and said girl this is milk, this is straight up tap water. She's not wrong though. Easily the lightest of the bunch, making it the ultimate gateway toner for teens and twentysomethings."

I Tried Every Viral Toner — Who Wins?

"Among all the milky toners, this one feels lighter and absorbs faster. It works well for all skin types, no heavy or sticky finish at all. I hadn't used this for a while, and when I put it on my skin today, testing sixteen different products, I knew this was going to be the last one, the best one. It's more soothing, and it's not sponsored, I'm From doesn't even recognize me. If you have more sensitive skin and want something really mild, it still works well and hydrates so well. Just try this."

TOP 10 Korean Skincare Brands | Global #1 VS Korea #1 - WHICH IS BETTER?

"Compared to Numbuzin's number one toner, which is too watery, this one sits in the middle, a good amount of hydration without being too heavy, and if you layer it two or three times it gets even more hydrating. I recommend this one a lot to my guests, especially if they have dry, mature skin or live in a really cold climate."

Are These Popular Viral Toners Actually Good? | Tier List

"This is the superstar of the milky toners, I love it. They pour moisturizer into the toner, it has a thicker consistency and is a lot more hydrating than the toners I mentioned earlier. The transparent bottle lets you easily see how much is left. Compared to other cream toners, this one isn't that heavy, it's very moisturizing for winter. When your skin feels pretty dry you can layer it two or three times and it still feels hydrating. It's pretty good."

Global No.1 vs Korea No.1 SKINCARE | Which One is Really Better To Buy?

"I'm From toner is milky, but the texture is lightweight, so it's great for oily or combo skin too. [...] For most people I'm From can be more appealing because I think it's a little lighter, and it's a little less expensive, so I like it better."

100% HONEST TikTok viral trending TONERS REVIEW // rec for every skin type

"A lot of people compare this with the Toko toner, that one is for oily and combo skin, and this one is better for dry skin. I tried it half and half, it's a lot more moisturizing, they basically put a cream in the toner so it takes a little more time to absorb, you have to tap it in a little more. It has niacinamide, which is supposed to make your skin brighter, I don't really see the difference, but as an everyday toner it's worth the hype."

Is VIRAL TIKTOK skincare *Worth the HYPE?* | BRUTALLY HONEST REVIEW

"I'm From's Rice Toner is less absorbent and less moisturizing than Beauty of Joseon. When I applied it half and half, [...] this one just disappeared quickly. I checked the label later and [...] it's actually formulated for oily skin, but for me it feels more drying. Also the scent, some people say it's okay, but for me it feels too artificial."

I tried TIKTOK *VIRAL* Korean skincare… an honest review (Not sponsored)

"I wondered why this is popular, it feels like rice, that's why it became popular I guess. The size is 60% of the Anua toner but the price is similar, so it's actually expensive for what you get. It's too watery to apply from your hands [...] so you have to pat it in, it was easier to apply on a cotton pad. This is one of my favorite brands but I'm not going to repurchase this one."

The Ordinary Saccharomyces Ferment 30% Milky Toner *REVIEW*

"The I'm From Rice Toner, that was amazing. Rice extract, very hydrating, very soothing, excellent if you have atopic dermatitis or rosacea. It delivers on the promises of better barrier function and sustained hydration. The saccharomyces filtrate is extra sophisticated, but I think it should be a supporting ingredient in another product like a backbone, for example, in a moisturizer or something of that sort. [...] By itself, this milky toner isn't really delivering as much."

"This one's got rice extract, a great soothing ingredient. It's got squalane, which is a wonderful antioxidant, rice bran extract, and then it's also got an extract which is a hydrating humectant ingredient. This stuff is really nice and pretty wonderful and pretty affordable. It works well for a lot of people. So it seems to be a winner."

Rice Toner Versus 🆚 I'm From Rice Toner VS Beauty of Joseon Glow Replenishing Rice Milk Toner

"I think when it comes down to rice being the title of both of these products, the fact that I'm From [...] has more of the rice in its formula, I end up liking that one a little bit more. [...] I like the I'm From more. It's a little bit more unique and I really like it, it's just a little bit more hydrating but doesn't feel greasy or sticky. [...] I really like the I'm From, so it's really nice."

I'm From Black Rice Toner VS I'm From Rice Toner 🆚 Which is Best For Your Skin?!?

"You can pat it onto skin or apply it with a cotton pad. [...] A little bit goes a long way if you're going to pat it on the skin. [...] It's very emollient. My skin prefers this at night. Sometimes, especially in the summer, if I use this in the morning, it ends up being a little too emollient and a little too hydrating for my skin, especially if I pat it on. But if I use it with a cotton pad, that's not as big of an issue."

"I'm on my second or third bottle of it. It's 19 bucks, great for acne, oily and sensitive skin types. We've got rice, we've got niacinamide, purain, great antioxidant, then extract, which is another great skin conditioning ingredient and an antioxidant. This one's nice. This one is probably the original of all of these. [...] I think they did so good with it that that's why everybody else decided to follow suit."

It's really nice, really minimal, no fragrance, great for sensitive skin, really hydrating. You can apply with a cotton pad or you could just pat it on your skin, whichever you prefer."

Rice Toner Versus: Anua Rice Ceramide Glow Milky Toner 🆚 I'm From Rice Toner

"It promises to brighten up skin while giving it moisture, but it does lack some [...] really science-driven brightening ingredients. Otherwise it hydrates skin and leaves it feeling nice and soft and ready for the next step. It works well for most skin types. The [...] texture of it makes it work well for morning and evening, gives skin moisture while not feeling greasy on the skin. Great for those with weakened skin barrier, those who use a lot of actives."

"It's the I'm From Rice Toner, and I've repurchased it. So 19 bucks. In here we've got rice extract, we've got niacinamide, we've got percan, we've got adenosine. The first bottle I went through I thought it was a little bit on the too hydrating side. When I started testing this most recent bottle it wasn't as hydrating or greasy as I remembered feeling. So I just think it works well for most skin types."

"I emptied it. My skin drank it up. And this is a product that I would gladly repurchase as well. It's such a unique product in the sense that the ingredient list is one of the shortest, it's the simplest and also doesn't have fragrance and essential oils which I always appreciate. This is also one of the only products that doesn't have those ceramides or skin barrier repairing serum. So this is staying very true to a brightening hydrating toner with rice bran extract and niacinamide as well."

"This is a very milky toner, but still quite lightweight. The goal of this toner is really to be brightening. It has niacinamide in it, which not only helps with dark spots, but also helps fortify the skin barrier. And remember, when it comes to mirror skin, we want the barrier to be strong and we want it to be clear."

"The black Rice Toner from I'm From, I [...] absolutely loved it. I made sheet masks out of it, and it was wild that I was able to make DIY sheet masks out of such a creamy, milky style toner. [...] I can't believe that I'm a person with dry skin telling you that this toner they supposedly made for oily skin is my favorite toner from I'm From. There are a lot of milky toners out there, but this one actually stood out to me."

HUGE Milky Toner Comparison: 10x K-Beauty & More Toners!

"This one seems a lot like Thank You Farmer, but there are a few quirks, you have to shake it since it has two layers. They claim it's brightening and even anti-wrinkle because it's hydrating, but I don't fully buy the anti-aging claim since almost any hydrating product could say that. [...] In terms of usage I don't hate this, but I also don't find it to be my favorite, [...] it's a little runny for my taste. It's just kind of fine."

"This is the I'm From Rice Toner. This is another one of those more moisturizing toners, I'm really excited to try this again, it's a nice unscented moisturizing toner. I admit I usually prefer these a little later in my routine, but it can work here for sure."

Trying Hyped FLOP K-Beauty Products :(

"It's never been among my absolute must-haves. I think it does what it claims to do. I do think it's soothing, hydrating, moisturizing, but as a person with more reactive skin, I need more than the basics. I really need something that's going to help keep my skin under control. While rice is soothing, I just feel like there's better products for soothing, for my skin type at least. It's a really hard product to hate, probably."

"I really had to go back into the archives for this one. [...] I used this years ago, but it is making a bit of a comeback. I used this toner non-stop for about two years and my skin was well balanced, there was no excessive sebum production whatsoever, more even skin tone, really probably just down to me consistently using one product consistently. But also the niacinamide in here, I know a lot of people find niacinamide overwhelming because it's in everything, but my skin loves it."

"The I'm From Rice Toner is an amazing toner that sits somewhere between moisturizing and hydrating. It really brightens your skin, hydrates, and smooths out your skin as well. It's such an amazing all-around hydrating product. Honestly, probably one of the best toners I've ever used. I think it's like Laneige Cream Skin Refiner but less moisturizing and more hydrating."

"Rice is an amazing skin conditioning, skin softening ingredient. It offers this really light balance of moisture that makes your skin feel super silky soft but it doesn't actually create an oily or greasy or overwhelming type of moisture. It's not thick, it's just a very light moisture at the top that really makes your skin feel very conditioned. [...] I think it can actually still work for oily skin types."

"This is so soothing, this is so gentle, and a little bit goes a long way. With a lot of toners I find myself having to load up pads and spread them all over, but literally just a drop or two can spread so easily and hydrate so well. [...] It soaks in so beautifully. [...] It's gentle, it's lightweight, it's hydrating so like you know it's there and it's working but it's not overbearing. It's so nice and lightweight. It's like that barely there feeling that actually does the work."
