For a long time, there has been a tradition in Japan that women
rub rice bran in or put rice bran oil on their face to keep their skin smooth.
It was a tradition and people don’t know the real reason why rice bran or rice
bran oil is effective in keeping skin smooth but it is thought that it relates
to the functions of minor components of rice bran oil.
Rice bran oil, a medically significant lipid containing drug, is
obtained from the husk of paddy and consists of embryo (germ) and endosperm of
Oryza sativa family Graminae. You can obtain this oil as a byproduct in rice
mill during polishing of rice after dehusking.
Rice bran oil contains three healthy antioxidants useful in
protecting the body’s cells against the effects of free radicals–tocopherol,
tocotrienol and oryzanol. Rich in Vitamins B and E, rice bran oil increases
elasticity of your skin and keeps it hydrated and soft. Rice bran oil is unique
in that it contains different kinds of vitamin B and vitamin E, making it a
more complex and wholesome ingredient for your skin.
Owing to the presence of vitamin E, Gamma-oryzanol, it is used for
many alternative herbal therapies along with skin care products to prevent
aging. Thus you can obtain a younger looking, wrinkle free and glowing skin
with use of this oil. Vitamin E helps skin feel refreshed all the time. Rice
bran oil is used in sunscreen as vitamin E protects skin against harmful
ultraviolet (UV) rays. The antioxidant property of this oil helps to overcome
free radicals which cause damage.
In addition, this formula also contains refined vegetable
Squalane, a phenomenal emollient derived from vitamin-rich olive oil that
boosts the skin’s ability to naturally regenerate, nourish, hydrate, oxygenate
and protect itself.

Rice bran oil is a powerful anti-aging complex known to protect
the skin from aging and external aggression. It is also known to promote blood
microcirculation, which is beneficial in reducing dark circles and puffiness.
Use of rice
bran oil for skin:
•
It is used to exfoliate the skin by massaging it thoroughly within
the face. This helps improve blood circulation thereby making the skin radiant
and glowing.
•
The anti-melanin property of rice bran oil comes into play when
used as a sun block. It is also known to whiten the skin slightly thus making
it effective as a skin lightening and fairness product.
•
Benefits of rice bran oil for skin also include its property of
keeping the skin incredibly soft. Polishing the face is popular in the Far
East; Japanese women use both powder and oil for keeping their skin silky
smooth.
•
It can also be used as a substitute for lanolin to help control
inflammation and soothe irritable skin. Alligator skin can be healed completely
courtesy the rice bran oil.
•
The oil extracted from rice bran can also be used as a carrier oil
for blending numerous other medicinal oils as it gets absorbed within seconds
leaving the skin velvety smooth.

Using it on oily skin is not taboo either. The oil is light and
does not linger on the surface of the skin increasing the oiliness despite
containing numerous essential fatty acids.
