Rice Water for Skin

Ingredients

  • ½ cup uncooked rice (white or brown)
  • 1 cup water (filtered or boiled & cooled)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh aloe vera gel (or store-bought pure gel)
  • Clean spray bottle or airtight container

Instructions

  1. Rinse the rice: Place the rice in a bowl and rinse quickly to remove any surface impurities.
  2. Soak the rice: Add 1 cup of water to the rinsed rice. Let it soak for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to help release the nutrients into the water.
  3. Strain: Pour the water into a clean bowl, separating it from the rice.
  4. Add aloe vera: Mix in the aloe vera gel and stir until fully combined.
  5. Store: Pour the mixture into a clean spray bottle or jar. Keep it in the refrigerator for up to 5–7 days.
  6. Use: After cleansing your face, spray or apply with a cotton pad. Let it absorb into the skin—no need to rinse. Use once or twice daily.

Tips:

  • Shake before each use to mix aloe evenly.
  • Always do a patch test before using on your face to check for sensitivity.
  • For extra soothing benefits, you can chill it before application.
