YUSURU– The Story of Rice Water

Centuries of Korean Tradition in Every Drop

YUSURU or Rice Water Solution, has been a skincare secret in Korea for over 1,000 years. Traditionally, women would rinse their rice and save the milky water, using it to cleanse and hydrate their skin. This natural elixir was revered for its ability to brighten complexion, smooth texture, and deliver long-lasting hydration.

Korean beauty rituals often began and ended with YUSURU, a practice passed down through generations. Its efficacy lies in its nutrient-rich composition, containing amino acids, vitamins, and antioxidants that work together to repair the skin barrier, boost hydration, and promote an even, radiant tone.

At ISLAND, we honor this legacy by sourcing pure Korean rice water and blending it with modern skincare science to deliver transformative results.
