Rice Water Face Scrub for Glowing Skin
Most scrubs promise radiance but leave skin feeling stripped and irritated. This rice water face scrub is different—it blends tradition with modern skincare to gently exfoliate while deeply nourishing. Inspired by centuries-old Asian beauty rituals, rice water is rich in vitamins and amino acids that naturally brighten and refresh the skin.
With a perfectly balanced formula, it smooths away dullness and buildup without disrupting skin’s natural moisture. The result is a healthy, lit-from-within glow that doesn’t need makeup to shine through.
Key Benefits:
- Rice water extract naturally brightens and evens skin tone
- Walnut shell powder gently exfoliates dull, dead cells
- Hyaluronic acid & glycerin replenish and lock in hydration
- Kaolin clay purifies and absorbs excess oil without dryness
- Mineral actives add protection and a subtle luminous effect
Use 2–3 times weekly to reveal fresher, smoother, more radiant skin.
Reveals Natural Radiance
Rice water extract contains natural enzymes that gently brighten skin and help fade dark spots over time, giving you that coveted healthy glow.
Gentle Yet Effective Exfoliation
Finely ground walnut shell powder removes dead skin cells without causing micro-tears or irritation that harsher scrubs can create.
Deep Hydration
Hyaluronic acid holds up to 1000 times its weight in water, ensuring your skin stays plump and moisturized even after exfoliation.
Suitable for Daily Concerns
Whether you’re dealing with blackheads, rough patches, or just everyday dullness, this face scrub addresses multiple skin concerns in one step.
Balanced Formula
The combination of cleansing and moisturizing ingredients means you won’t experience the tightness or dryness that makes some people avoid exfoliation altogether.
Safe for Sensitive Areas
Gentle enough to use around the delicate eye area (with light pressure) and on sensitive skin types that typically react to harsh scrubs.
Rice Water Extract
The star ingredient that’s been used for generations in Asia for its skin-brightening properties. Rich in vitamins and minerals that help improve skin texture and promote a natural glow while providing gentle nourishment.
Walnut Shell Powder
Provides natural, biodegradable exfoliation that’s more gentle than synthetic microbeads but effective enough to remove stubborn dead skin cells and reveal smoother skin underneath.
Hyaluronic Acid
A powerful humectant that draws moisture from the environment into your skin. This ensures that even after exfoliation, your skin remains hydrated and plump rather than stripped and tight.
Light Kaolin Clay
A gentle clay that helps draw out impurities from pores without over-drying. Perfect for balancing oil production while maintaining your skin’s natural moisture barrier.
Glycerin
A skin-identical ingredient that helps maintain hydration levels and creates a protective barrier that keeps moisture locked in long after you’ve rinsed the scrub away.
Titanium Dioxide & Zinc Oxide
Provide gentle, mineral-based protection while contributing to the brightening effects. These ingredients are also soothing for sensitive or irritated skin.
Cetyl Alcohol & Stearic Acid
Despite the name “alcohol,” cetyl alcohol is actually a conditioning agent that helps soften skin, while stearic acid provides a creamy, luxurious texture that makes application comfortable.
How to Use
Step 1:
Start with clean, damp skin. Splash your face with lukewarm water to prepare your skin for exfoliation.
Step 2:
Take a small amount (about a teaspoon) of the face scrub and gently massage it onto your skin using circular motions. Focus on areas that tend to be rougher or more prone to blackheads, like your T-zone.
Step 3:
Pay special attention to areas with visible pores or rough texture, but use lighter pressure around the delicate eye area and avoid scrubbing too vigorously on thin or sensitive skin.
Step 4:
Continue massaging for 30-60 seconds, allowing the rice water extract to work while the walnut powder gently exfoliates.
Step 5:
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat your skin dry with a clean towel.
Step 6:
Follow up with your regular moisturizer or serum. Your skin will absorb products much better after exfoliation.
Pro Tip: Use 2-3 times per week for best results. If you have sensitive skin, start with once a week and gradually increase frequency as your skin adjusts.
Suitable For
This face scrub for glowing skin is formulated to work with all skin types, which is pretty rare in the exfoliation world. Here’s why it works so well for everyone:
- ✅ Normal Skin: Maintains healthy cell turnover and prevents dullness from building up. The balanced formula won’t disrupt your skin’s natural harmony.
- ✅ Dry Skin: The hyaluronic acid and glycerin ensure that exfoliation doesn’t lead to increased dryness. Instead, you’ll find your moisturizers work better on freshly exfoliated skin.
- ✅ Oily/Combination Skin: Light kaolin clay helps control excess oil while the gentle exfoliation prevents clogged pores that can lead to breakouts.
- ✅ Sensitive Skin: The natural ingredients and gentle walnut powder exfoliation make this much more tolerable than scrubs with harsh synthetic beads or strong acids.
- ✅ Mature Skin: Regular gentle exfoliation helps improve skin texture and allows anti-aging products to penetrate better, while the hydrating ingredients prevent that papery feeling.
- ✅ Acne-Prone Skin: Helps prevent clogged pores without being so harsh that it triggers more breakouts. The anti-inflammatory properties of several ingredients help calm existing irritation.
Why Dr. Sufia’s Wellness?
When I started formulating skincare products two decades ago, I was frustrated by the gap between what science shows works and what was actually available to consumers. Too many products either contained harsh ingredients that damaged the skin barrier or were so gentle they didn’t provide any real results.
My approach combines traditional ingredients that have been used safely for generations (like rice water) with modern understanding of skin physiology. Every ingredient in this face scrub for glowing skin was chosen based on published research and my clinical experience with thousands of clients.
I personally test every formula and won’t release anything that I wouldn’t use on my own skin or recommend to my family. When you choose Dr. Sufia’s Wellness, you’re getting products backed by real expertise, not just marketing claims.
We also believe in transparency – that’s why we list every single ingredient and explain exactly what it does for your skin. No mystery ingredients, no “proprietary blends” that hide what you’re actually putting on your face.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our Rice Water Face Scrub
Start with 2-3 times per week. If you have very sensitive skin, begin with once a week and gradually increase. Your skin will tell you what it needs – if you notice irritation, reduce frequency.
Yes, but not on the same day. Use the scrub on days when you’re not applying retinoids, AHAs, or BHAs. Always follow up with sunscreen during the day since exfoliation can increase sun sensitivity.
Absolutely. The gentle exfoliation helps remove the buildup that makes pores appear larger, while the clay component helps draw out impurities. Consistent use over 4-6 weeks typically shows the best results for pore appearance.
Yes, but use very gentle pressure. The skin around your eyes is much thinner and more delicate. Focus the scrubbing action on areas like your forehead, nose, and chin where skin is thicker.
Rice water contains natural enzymes, amino acids, and vitamins that have been shown to brighten skin and improve texture. It’s also rich in antioxidants that help protect against environmental damage while being extremely gentle.
Of course! Men’s skin actually tends to be thicker and can handle regular exfoliation really well. This is perfect for guys who want to improve their skin texture and get rid of that rough, dull look.
With 2-3 uses per week, a standard container typically lasts 6-8 weeks. A little goes a long way – you only need about a teaspoon per use.
While this isn’t a treatment specifically for acne scars, the gentle exfoliation and rice water’s brightening properties can help improve the appearance of surface-level discoloration over time. For deeper scarring, you’d want to combine this with other treatments.
Yes! It works great on areas like elbows, knees, or anywhere you have rough skin. Just remember that body skin is typically less sensitive than facial skin, so you can apply a bit more pressure.
Stop using the product immediately and rinse your skin thoroughly with cool water. Apply a gentle moisturizer and avoid other active ingredients until your skin calms down. If irritation persists, consult a dermatologist.
Yes, we never test our products on animals. We believe in ethical beauty practices and only work with suppliers who share these values.
