Ariana & Evans aftershave serum Wood & Lavender 59ml
Rice water has been used for centuries in Asian skincare rituals; it is the secret to a clear, glowing complexion. Rice water is gentle, rich in skin-healthy nutrients and virtually unknown in America. During his last trip to Asia in February 2020, Peter first learned about these benefits and is giving them to us.
The reason rice water is good for the skin is that it is rich in many nutrients. To begin with, about 16% of its composition consists of proteins, which are the building blocks of skin cells. It is also enriched with triglycerides, lipids and starch, which are all responsible for skin improvement against skin ageing. Carbohydrates, inositol, phytic acid and inorganic substances make up the rest of the composition, making rice water an ideal ingredient for achieving radiant skin.
Rich in antioxidants, rice water has been shown to inhibit the action of elastase, a compound that causes damage to elastin in the skin and leads to premature ageing. This is why rice water can be safely used to delay and reduce the appearance of signs of ageing on the skin.
Studies have found that rice starch can be useful in repairing and maintaining the skin’s natural barrier. This can be useful in preparing the skin to prevent problems such as atopic dermatitis and to protect against damage from pollution.
Rice water has an astringent effect on pores and a toning effect when used on oily skin.
