DIY skin brightening and exfoliating with rice powderExfoliating properties Besides offering UV protection, rice powder has exfoliating properties and so that can help to keep the skin looking brighter. Other than that, rice powder has a chemical structure similar to ceramide, and ceramide increases collagen production to make skin more supple. Instant brightening effects But do note that the effects are temporary; you’ve got to use this treatment frequently like once or twice a week over a course of a month to see a change in your skin tone. Use it alone or with other ingredients Use pure rice flour mixed with mineral water and make it into a paste. However, you can also mix the rice flour with yogurt or even milk (I use dry milk) or honey. It’s really your choice of ingredients. Apply on your face and neck and rinse off after 10 minutes or when the paste dries. Easy peasy! When looking for rice powder look for unbleached rice flour. Alternatively, you can grind your own powder out of rice grains. A bit troublesome no doubt but it’ll cost you practically nothing! I grind my own and have made even a microfoliant from it.
