Rice Amino Acids

What Rice Amino Acids is & what it does

Rice Amino Acids are a blend of amino acids derived from the hydrolysis of rice proteins. In skincare and haircare they act primarily as humectants and conditioning agents, helping to bind water and support the skin or hair surface for a softer feel. Because they are small, water-soluble molecules, they are commonly used in lightweight hydrating formulas, toners, and rinse products. They are not a UV filter and offer no inherent sun protection.
