Rice flour is a fine, soft powder used in some DIY masks and body polishes when you want a gentle creamy texture. It should be used carefully: soft does not mean irritation-free for every face.
Best for: gentle body polishes, creamy masks, soft-texture DIY recipes. Avoid when: skin is irritated, broken, sunburned or freshly exfoliated.
How Rice Flour Is Used
In Glow Rituals recipes, rice flour is usually mixed with aloe, rose water, yogurt or oil to make a smooth paste. Keep the texture creamy and never rub hard on facial skin.
Gentle Use Ideas
- Use 1 teaspoon in a face mask for slip and body.
- Use 1 tablespoon in a body polish with enough oil or milk to soften the texture.
- Apply with light pressure only and rinse before the mixture dries tight.
Safety Notes
Patch test first. Avoid the eye area and skip rice flour on active irritation, broken skin or after strong exfoliants. If a recipe feels gritty, add more liquid or choose oats instead.
