Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Probiotics Barrier Essence 120ml (Makgeolli Essence)

This essence is built around black rice and rice lees extract alongside bifida ferment filtrate and galactomyces ferment filtrate, each included to support the skin’s barrier and microbiome. Five types of ceramide and panthenol are added to help lock in the hydration the fermented actives deliver.

The rice lees reference the makgeolli, or Korean rice wine, that the essence takes its nickname from, and together with the ferment filtrates it is meant to leave skin calmer and more resilient with regular use, particularly for skin whose barrier feels compromised. The texture applies generously with hands or a cotton pad.

Apply morning and evening after cleansing. Pour a generous amount onto palms and press into skin, or apply with a cotton pad. Layer as needed before serums and moisturizer.
