Ingredient Spotlight: Hydrolized Rice Protein

Hydrolized Rice Protein is an additive ingredient for cosmetics largely known for use in skin and haircare products.

A byproduct of the rice production process, Hydrolized Rice Protein originates from the outer layer of rice that is most often removed to make brown rice into white rice, and results from rice grains that have undergone a natural chemical reaction due to exposure to an acid or enzyme, among other processes.

Vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free and rich in amino acids that may improve the hair’s flexibility and shine, Hydrolized Rice Protein is also thought to add remarkable volume to hair. Its natural properties are often used in hair and skincare products to help fight dryness and retain essential moisture, not to mention it’s gentle enough to accommodate all skin types.

If you’re looking for a way to upgrade your existing products, or experiment with something new, Hydrolized Rice Protein is the additive for you.
