Rice Flour for Face

1. Peeling and Smoothing Skin
   Rice flour is not as hard or coarse as other facial scrubs. That is why a gentle massage with rice flour is suitable even for the most sensitive skin. Moreover, the product does not cause allergies.
2. Skin Brightening
   If you have a dull complexion and your skin has lost the desired glow, use rice flour. After a week, the skin will acquire a pleasant shade. And if you have any age spots, after a month they will disappear.
3. Pore Minimizer
   Rice flour is a godsend for acne-prone skin. Thanks to its absorbent properties, it fights acne, oiliness, redness, and inflammation.
4. Face Lifting
   Rice flour contains a lot of potassium. This element renews the skin and promotes collagen production. The contour of the face will become clearer, and the skin will be firmer.
5. Nutrition and Moisturizing
   In addition to potassium, rice flour contains a range of minerals, vitamins, and amino acids that nourish and moisturize the skin.

Like many people nowadays, I love to explore new places. My favorite type is slow travelling, when you can really blend in with locals and learn about new cultures and languages. But I think there are also perfect times for enjoying freshly baked pastry, a cup of fragrant coffee, and a good movie in the comfort of your own home. I guess I'm kind of a cultural omnivore, and I watch different types of movies, but the ones about art and food inspire me the most!
