What is ANUA Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner?
ANUA Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner is a soft, milky hydrating toner from the Korean brand ANUA. Instead of the watery feel of a classic toner, it pours as a light, lotion-like milk that sinks in within seconds and leaves skin supple and dewy, never sticky. Rice bran water makes up the bulk of the formula, supported by niacinamide, panthenol, hyaluronic acid and a trio of ceramides. It is fragrance-free and comes in three sizes: 40ml, 150ml and 250ml.
The "70" in the name refers to the rice bran water content, which is the backbone of the formula. The result is a toner that feels like a first, featherweight layer of moisture rather than a splash of water.
What is ANUA Rice 70+ toner used for?
It is used straight after cleansing to rehydrate the skin, soften rough patches and give a healthy, glowing look. It also helps the serums and moisturisers that follow spread more evenly. Think of it as the step that turns a tight, freshly washed face back into calm, comfortable skin.
Is it a toner, an essence or a moisturiser?
It sits between a toner and an essence. It is thinner than a moisturiser and should not replace one on dry skin, but it delivers more hydration than a water-like toner. Many people with oily skin find it is all the hydration they need under sunscreen in summer.
ANUA Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner benefits: what it does for your skin
This toner is about hydration and radiance, delivered gently enough for daily use.
Hydrates dull, thirsty skin
Rice bran water, glycerin and several forms of hyaluronic acid pull water into the skin's surface. Skin that looked flat or tired after cleansing regains a soft, bouncy feel within minutes.
Supports a brighter, more even-looking tone
Niacinamide, along with small amounts of arbutin and ascorbic acid, helps skin look more even over time. This is a gentle, gradual effect, so pair it with a dedicated serum if dark spots are your main concern.
Strengthens the skin barrier
Ceramides NP, AP and EOP, together with cholesterol and phytosphingosine, mirror lipids found naturally in a healthy barrier. That support matters if your skin is stressed by air conditioning, hard water or active treatments.
Calms and comforts
Panthenol and allantoin are classic soothing ingredients. With no added fragrance, the toner suits sensitive skin that dislikes perfumed products.
Gives a soft, glassy glow
Well-hydrated skin reflects light more evenly. After a couple of weeks of use, many people notice their skin looks healthier and more luminous, especially under makeup or sunscreen.
ANUA Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner key ingredients
The full list is long, but a handful of ingredients do most of the work.
| Ingredient | What it does |
|---|---|
| Rice bran water (70%) | The base of the formula; softens and hydrates for a smooth, radiant look |
| Niacinamide | Helps skin look more even and supports the barrier |
| Ceramides NP, AP, EOP | Reinforce the skin barrier and help prevent moisture loss |
| Hyaluronic acid (several forms) | Draw water into different layers of the skin |
| Panthenol and allantoin | Soothe and comfort |
| Arbutin and ascorbic acid | Support a brighter-looking complexion in small amounts |
Does ANUA rice toner have niacinamide?
Yes. Niacinamide is one of the leading ingredients, listed fifth in the formula. If you want a higher, targeted dose, layer the ANUA Peach 70% Niacinamide Serum afterwards.
Why rice is a K-beauty favourite
Rice water has been part of Korean beauty rituals for generations, valued for leaving skin soft and luminous. Modern formulas like this one use rice bran water and rice proteins in a stable, cosmetic-grade form. Discover more rice-based picks in our rice skincare edit.
Is ANUA Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner good for your skin type?
It is designed to suit all skin types, but the way you use it can change with your skin.
Is it good for dry skin?
Yes. Dry and dehydrated skin often responds best to it, because the milky texture adds real comfort. Press in two layers on dry days and always follow with a moisturiser.
Is it good for oily skin?
It can be. Despite the milky look, it absorbs quickly and does not leave a greasy film. Oily skin usually does well with a single layer, and some people prefer it at night only, using a lighter water toner such as the ANUA Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner in the morning.
Is it good for combination skin?
Yes. Apply one layer all over, then press a second layer onto drier cheeks only. That way the T-zone stays fresh while dry areas get extra moisture.
Is it good for acne and acne-prone skin?
It is a hydrating toner rather than an acne treatment, but it is fragrance-free and its source lists it as fungal-acne safe, which many acne-prone users look for. Hydrated skin also tolerates acne treatments better. If breakouts are your main concern, keep your targeted treatment and use this as the comforting layer around it.
Is it non-comedogenic?
The brand does not publish a formal non-comedogenic test, but the formula is light and oil-free in feel. As with any new product, introduce it on its own for a week or two so you can tell how your skin responds.
Is it good for sensitive skin?
Generally, yes. No fragrance, soothing panthenol and allantoin, and barrier-supporting ceramides make it a gentle option.
Who should patch-test first?
Patch-test on the jawline for a day or two if you have reacted to rice or plant extracts before, or if your skin is currently irritated. Pregnant or breastfeeding? Gentle hydrating toners are generally considered low-risk, but check any routine with your doctor.
How to use ANUA Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner (morning and night)
Pressing the toner in with your hands uses less product and feels more hydrating than wiping with cotton.
Morning routine
- Cleanse with a gentle face wash.
- Shake the bottle lightly and pour a little toner into your palms.
- Press it into your face and neck until absorbed.
- Apply your serum, a light moisturiser and sunscreen.
Evening routine
- On sunscreen or makeup days, begin with a double cleanse using the ANUA Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil.
- Press in one or two layers of toner.
- Follow with your treatment serum and moisturiser.
How much and how often?
A coin-sized amount per layer is enough for the face. It is gentle enough for twice-daily use, every day.
Can you use it with retinol or tretinoin?
Yes. It contains no exfoliating acids, so it is a comfortable partner for retinoids. Apply it after cleansing and let it absorb before your retinol or tretinoin, or use it in the morning on retinoid days to keep skin hydrated. If you use prescription tretinoin, follow your doctor's guidance on layering.
What to pair it with, and what to avoid
It layers well with hydrating essences such as the COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence or the mixsoon Bean Essence. There is no need to layer it with an exfoliating toner in the same routine; if you use one, such as the The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution, keep it for separate evenings.
ANUA Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner results: how long until you see a difference?
Skin feels softer and more hydrated right after the first use. Over two to three weeks of daily use, most people notice a more even, glowing look and fewer tight, dry patches. Changes in tone are subtle and gradual, building over six to eight weeks.
Does ANUA Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner have side effects?
It is very gentle and side effects are uncommon. Very oily skin may find two layers too rich in humid weather; simply use one. Rarely, someone may react to an ingredient in the formula, so stop using it if you notice redness, itching or new bumps that do not settle.

Original vs fake ANUA Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner: how to check
Because it is one of ANUA's most popular toners, copies do circulate. Check that the label print is crisp, the batch and expiry codes are clearly stamped, and the cap seals properly. The toner itself should be a smooth, milky liquid with no perfume; a watery, separated or strongly scented product is a red flag.
