If you’ve been following me for a while you would know that I’m really obsessed with skincare. I’ve been through so many brands and lines — Origins, Shu Uemura, Laneige, Shiseido, Kanebo, Sulwhasoo… but I was using Sulwhasoo the longest. I started with their most basic line and eventually graduated to the Sulwhasoo Ultimate S line. These days I usually post on Instagram and Facebook so blogging has taken a bit of a backseat. However, my new skincare regimen Riman InCellDerm needs a blog post so I can fully explain it. Riman is a Korean brand that is only available online. They do not have physical stores.
The Riman InCellDerm (ICD for short) line is what I currently use. I apply most of these day and night, so 2x a day. I will enumerate the products here:
- Cleansing Powder Wash (₱1,900) – Day, for cleansing
- Moisture Cleansing Oil (₱1,900) – Night, for cleansing
- Two Phase Oil Mist (₱2,200) – Day and Night
- Calming Balance Gel (₱2,200) – Day and Night
- Dermatology Package – Booster + Serum (₱5,600 for a set) – Day and Night
- Dermatology Cream (₱3,800) – Day and Night
- Moisture Layer Sun Protector (₱1,600) – Day
All the above products cost ₱19,200 total but it’s on sale as a set for ₱17,000. This is waaaay cheaper than the Sulwhasoo Ultimate S line I’ve been using. One 50 ml bottle of Sulwhasoo Ultimate S Serum alone cost me ₱18,000… which is the entire set of Riman InCellDerm already.
In the morning, I start my routine by washing with the Cleansing Powder Wash. I put a bit of powder on my hand and wet it until it lathers. Then I massage it onto my face. It’s plant and enzyme based. It does a really good job of cleansing. The effect is similar to the Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Foam except this makes face feel cleaner. No tight feeling after but super fresh and clean. At night, I start my routine with the Moisture Cleansing Oil. It’s really good at completely dissolving makeup, and sunscreen. It also rids your face of dirt and grime. If you need deep cleansing you can follow up the oil with the powder wash. These two products last long. I’ve been using them for 2.5 months and both have not even reached the halfway mark. Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Foam costs around ₱1,000 per 200ml bottle and it lasts around 8 months when used 2x a day. That said, you can actually keep using Sulwhasoo as your cleanser if you prefer and just buy the other products. I tried doing this when I traveled abroad and the rest of the Riman InCellDerm line worked just fine even with the Sulwhasoo cleanser.
After cleansing, I spritz on the Two Phase Oil Mist. This is literally skin vitamins as it nourishes the skin and makes it more radiant. Shake well then spray all over the face. Then I follow with the Calming Balance Gel which calms, balances, and moisturizes the skin. My skin is prone to redness so the soothing effect of this gel is perfect for it.
This is the Dermatology Package which consists of a Booster and a Serum. They are sold together. After applying the gel, you spray the booster all over the face. It magnifies the effect of the serum. With Sulwhasoo, this is the equivalent of First Care Activating Serum + Ultimate S Serum. After the booster dries, you apply serum all over — including the eye area. You don’t need a separate eye cream or eye serum anymore. After the serum, you spray the booster all over the face again. They call this process Boo-Se-Boo (Booster-Serum-Booster). These products firm, brighten, moisturize, and protect the skin.
The Dermatology Cream is the second to the last step during the day (sunscreen being the very last) and the last step at night. This is a firming, lifting cream which locks all of the previous steps in. It comes with a spatula for hygienic application. Honestly, the effect is the same as the Sulwhasoo Ultimate S Cream… the difference being that Sulwhasoo cream costs US$400. I had some leftover Ultimate S Cream which I used in place of this and the effect was the same.
This is the last step for day — sunscreen! The Moisture Layer Sun Protector SPF50 PA++++ is one of the best I’ve used. It has a nice cooling feeling on the face and is extremely lightweight. Not sticky and not greasy, it’s actually pleasant to apply. Honestly though, you can use any sunscreen you prefer and this is just an excellent add-on, not a must buy.
For Riman InCellDerm, the must-buy products are the Oil Mist, Balance Gel, Booster + Serum, and Cream. You can use any cleanser and/or sunscreen.
I started using Riman InCellDerm on Sept. 28, 2025. Above left is my photo before Riman, above right is my photo after 2.5 months of use. My skin has become more hydrated and luminous, glowy with a lot less texture issues. I didn’t try samples, I straight up bought a set. This brand and regimen was vouched for by a very good friend of mine after all, you may know her as the OG beauty blogger Beautynomics. I’m 50+ years old so no, I’m not some young-ish person reviewing anti-aging products. I am actually part of the market for all this anti-aging shiz.
So far I’m very happy with this regimen. It has gotten me better results for a lot less money.
