DESCRIPTION
Used for centuries in Asian beauty rituals, Rice Starch is one of nature’s most versatile cosmetic ingredients. This finely milled, plant-derived powder offers a silky texture that soothes the skin, absorbs excess oil, and leaves a smooth, soft-touch finish.
In modern cosmetics, Rice Starch is prized as a gentle alternative to talc and synthetic fillers. It helps mattify the skin, reduce shine, and improve product spreadability without clogging pores. Its natural soothing properties also make it a popular addition to baby care products, face masks, and powders designed for sensitive skin.
