Rice in cosmetics

The fact is that many of us have discovered pigment irregularities on our face. Healthy cells disperse melanin, the skin pigment, evenly. But UV radiation, dehydration, inflammatory processes and acne damage our cells, they no longer produce melanin as they should, dark spots and pigment irregularities appear. In addition, hormones, drugs also contribute to their formation, and genetic predisposition must be taken into account.

We often don't see damage, pigment spots right away. Sometimes even a few weeks or months pass, so it appears at a time when we can no longer influence the degree of damage. Therefore, it is important to think about the health of our skin literally every day. The often mentioned hydration is necessary, among other functions, for the proper functioning of the skin barrier. A healthy and durable skin film protects the skin from drying out and inflammatory processes. Acne, inflammation, or improperly treated rashes damage cells, melanin is formed unevenly and we have unwanted spots. Excessive sunbathing is also not good for our beauty. UV radiation damages cells, also negatively affects the production of skin pigment and, in addition, causes the breakdown of collagen fibers. And the result? Uneven skin tone, wrinkles, loss of elasticity and sagging facial contours.

We already know that we have to take care of the health of our skin on a daily basis, strengthen the skin barrier, prevent inflammatory processes and professionally treat possible rashes, use SPF cream all year round and protect the skin from intense sunlight. But how to whiten the spots that have arisen after all? Each skin type reacts differently to individual brightening active substances and we have already mentioned some of them in our previous blogs. Niacinamide, arbutin, vitamin C, and today it's rice's turn.

Rice, a simple crop that satiates our hunger, provides the body with energy and nutrients, strengthens our health and also takes care of beautiful skin. The water left after cooking rice has been used centuries ago in Japan to regenerate skin and strengthen hair. It may have fallen into oblivion over time, but today, in the age of pigment spots, it is again in the limelight (or in the foreground - the center of cosmetic interest?).
