Using Rice Powder For Flawless Skin And Long Hair

The benefits of Rice Flour

Traditionally used by Geishas to maintain their flawless porcelain skin and luscious hair, rice flour has a myriad of uses in beauty care. A humble bowl of rice flour has high contents of para aminobenzoic acid, ferulic acid and allantoin. These elements give it powerful properties that can be very easily used to repair and maintain beautiful skin and hair. 

Rice Flour for skin care

The para aminobenzoic acid in rice flour makes it a good natural sunscreen. It protects the skin and hair from damage caused by UV rays. It soothes sunburn, reliving the pain and discomfort associated with it. It also works well at removing suntan due to the presence of amino acids and vitamins. It diminishes dark spots caused by sun exposure, repairs damaged skin cells, and overall ensures healthy, young, and flawless skin. 

Its anti-inflammatory properties courtesy of its high allantoin content also help calm redness and acne while reducing breakouts. Rice flour is also germicidal and has antiseptic properties that combat the bacteria and germs that cause acne and breakouts. It also gently removes scarring caused by acne and breakouts, repairing the skin intensely. 

Rich in antioxidants like ferulic acid, rice flour delays signs of aging and prevents fine lines and wrinkles. The amino acids present in rice flour also help tighten skin and reduce the visibility of pores. Rice flour increases the elasticity of skin, firms up sagging skin, and rejuvenates skin to leave it moisturized and youthful. 

Rice flour is also a great cleanser and can be used very effectively as an exfoliator. The fine particles help remove dead skin cells, dirt, and grime while at the same time absorb excess oil and sebum resulting in deeply cleansed skin. It is also a useful remedy for removing dark circles as it helps firm up and brighten the delicate skin under your eyes while also providing a cooling effect to the eyes.

Rice flour has excellent properties for scalp and hair health as well. Many Asian cultures owe their bountiful tresses to the nutritional benefits provided by rice, rice water, and rice flour. Being an excellent cleanser, rice flour helps maintain a clean and healthy scalp, riding it of product build up, excess oil, and anything that clogs the hair follicles leaving hair to grow feeling and healthily. 

Rice flour also strengthens and smoothens hair, removing frizz as hair is left silky and smooth. It repairs damaged hair due to its high amino acid content working intensely to nourish the scalp and hair follicles. It also improves hair elasticity resulting in less breakage and hair loss.
