Beauty of Joseon - Ground Rice and Honey Glow Mask

After cleansing, apply a thick, even layer of the mask across the entire face, avoiding the eye and lip areas.

Leave on for 15–20 minutes.

Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, gently massaging in circular motions as you rinse to take advantage of the Rice Hull Powder's gentle exfoliating action.

Pat skin dry and continue with the rest of your skincare routine: toner, essence, serum, and moisturiser.

Use once a week as part of your regular skincare routine, or whenever the skin needs an extra brightening and hydrating boost.

Pro Tips:

• For the best exfoliating benefit, when rinsing, use gentle circular motions with damp fingertips to work the Rice Hull Powder across the skin before washing away completely.
• Pair this mask with the Glow Replenishing Rice Milk toner immediately after rinsing to extend the brightening and pore-tightening benefits of the rice complex throughout the rest of your routine.
• For an extra soothing experience, apply the mask straight from the jar without warming — the Menthyl Lactate will create a pleasant, cooling sensation on the skin.
• Use on mask day as part of a full treatment evening: double cleanse, apply this mask, then layer toner, serum, and a nourishing moisturiser to wake up with glowing, plump skin the next morning.

Gentle Physical Exfoliation with Rice Hull Powder — Oryza Sativa (Rice) Hull Powder provides gentle physical exfoliation, sweeping away dead skin cells, surface impurities, and congestion without the harshness of synthetic scrubbing particles. After rinsing, skin feels noticeably softer, smoother, and more refined to the touch. You may notice small visible grains in the formula — this is completely normal and comes from the natural rice bran component, which contributes to the mask's gentle exfoliating effect.

Brightening Rice Wine Complex — The formula features an upcycled Rice Wine Complex inspired by Makgeolli, a traditional Korean fermented rice beverage. The byproduct extracts — Oryza Sativa Rice Lees Extract, Rice Bran, and Rice Extract — are rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and ferment-derived brightening compounds that help improve the appearance of uneven skin tone, dullness, and lacklustre complexion, while boosting the look of elasticity and radiance.

Pore Purification Without Over-Drying — Kaolin Clay and Bentonite draw out excess sebum, dirt, and impurities from the pores without stripping the skin's natural moisture barrier. Unlike traditional clay masks that can leave skin feeling tight or irritated, the creamy base of this formula ensures that the cleansing and purifying action remains balanced and non-drying, making it suitable for even dry and sensitive skin types.

Deep Hydration with Honey — Honey and Honey Extract are natural humectants, emollients, and natural antibacterial agents celebrated in Korean beauty traditions for their ability to deeply soften, hydrate, and soothe the skin. They help lock moisture into the skin during the treatment and leave behind a delicate, honey-like softness after rinsing.

Cooling and Refreshing Sensation — Menthyl Lactate provides a gentle, pleasant cooling and refreshing sensation on application — making this mask especially satisfying as a weekly skin reset ritual and particularly soothing after sun exposure or on warm days.

All-in-One Skin Reset — Rather than targeting a single concern, this mask is formulated to address a broad range of skin concerns simultaneously: brightness, hydration, pore clarity, texture, and smoothness — all in one 15-minute treatment. It is suitable for all skin types and is equally effective whether used as a regular weekly ritual or as an on-demand treatment whenever the skin looks dull or congested.

Clinically Proven Non-Irritating — Clinically tested and proven to be non-irritating according to a 24-hour Patch Test conducted by the Korea Dermatology Research Institute on 30 subjects.

Sustainably Inspired — Upcycled Ingredients — The Rice Wine Complex used in this mask is derived from upcycled byproducts of the Makgeolli fermentation process — reflecting Beauty of Joseon's commitment to both traditional Korean skincare wisdom and responsible, sustainable ingredient sourcing.

Suitable for all skin types, including dry, oily, combination, normal, and sensitive skin. The non-stripping, creamy kaolin clay base ensures this mask is gentle enough for dry and sensitive skin, while still being effective at purifying pores and controlling excess sebum on oily and combination skin types. Safe to use during pregnancy.

Q: Which skin types can use this mask?
The Ground Rice and Honey Glow Mask is suitable for all skin types — from dry to oily, combination, normal, and sensitive. The creamy kaolin clay base purifies and absorbs excess sebum without stripping moisture, making it effective for oily and combination skin while remaining gentle enough for dry and sensitive skin types.

Q: How often should I use this mask?
Use once a week as part of your regular skincare routine, or whenever the skin needs an extra brightening, hydrating, or pore-clearing boost. During periods of increased dullness, congestion, or after travel, it can be used slightly more frequently if the skin tolerates it well.

Q: What are the visible grains or particles I can see in the formula?
The small visible grains in the formula come from natural Rice Bran (Oryza Sativa Rice Bran), which is a gentle, natural exfoliating ingredient. These grains are completely normal and are part of what makes this mask a dual-action treatment — combining the brightening power of the Rice Wine Complex with the gentle physical exfoliation of rice hull powder and rice bran.

Q: Is this mask fragrance-free?
This mask does not contain any added synthetic fragrances. However, you may notice a subtle, natural scent arising from the Rice Wine Complex and Honey ingredients — this is the natural aroma of the formula's key active ingredients and not the result of added perfume.

Q: Does this mask contain alcohol?
No. While this mask is inspired by Makgeolli (a traditional Korean fermented rice wine beverage), the formula itself contains no alcohol. Any alcohol present in the rice wine extract during processing evaporates completely during the manufacturing process, leaving behind only the beneficial brightening and nourishing compounds.

Q: Is it safe to use during pregnancy?
Yes. This mask is listed as pregnancy safe. As always, if you have any concerns or sensitivities during pregnancy, we recommend consulting your primary care doctor or midwife before introducing new skincare products.
