Rice contains antioxidants that help counter the impact of free radicals, which are volatile molecules that can harm cells in the body. There are many ways to use rice water for skin beauty.

1. Use rice water as a face cleanser and toner

Pour a small amount of rice water into a small bowl, soak a cotton pad in it, gently apply it evenly on the face and neck like a toner. Massage gently for the rice water to penetrate the skin. Rinse with cool water.

2. Three types of rice water masks

Pure rice water mask: Use a sheet mask and soak it in rice water. Cleanse the face with a cleanser and warm water, apply the pure rice water mask on the skin for 10-15 minutes. Rinse with cool water.

Rice water and honey mask: Mix 2 teaspoons of pure honey with 2 teaspoons of rice water. Apply this mixture to the face, massage gently, then rinse the face.

Rice water and turmeric mask: Mix 2-3 teaspoons of rice water with 2 teaspoons of turmeric powder to create a smooth paste.

3. Make ice cubes from rice water

Pour the rice water into small ice trays and freeze. After a few hours, you can wrap the ice cubes in a thin cloth and apply it to your face.

Note:

– Although it helps brighten and deeply cleanse the skin from within, and reduces acne, you should only do it a maximum of 3 times per week. This ensures safety for the skin.

– Although some substances in rice water help protect against sunlight, you should not expose your bare face to hot sunlight. You still need to apply sunscreen regularly.

– Rice water should only be stored in the refrigerator for a maximum of one week (if making ice cubes, it can be stored longer). If left too long, rice water can become moldy and contaminated with bacteria. At this time, rice water cannot whiten the skin and can even cause harm, such as redness, swelling, and pustules.

– Rice may be exposed to pesticides during cultivation or contaminated with chemicals during storage. Therefore, you should not use rice water as the first choice for facial use.

– If you experience allergic reactions to rice water such as dry patches, peeling, or itching, you should immediately stop using rice water.

– Rice water cannot replace medications used to treat skin conditions such as eczema. Therefore, you need to consult a doctor if you have any issues with your skin./.
