Information

Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Wax is a natural wax obtained from the bran layer of rice grains. It is primarily used in skincare as a thickening agent, emollient, and stabilizer. Known for its smooth texture and skin-conditioning properties, rice bran wax helps to improve the consistency and application of skincare products while providing a protective barrier on the skin.

Where does it come from?

Rice Bran Wax is derived from the outer layer of rice grains (Oryza sativa), particularly from the bran, which is rich in natural waxes, oils, and nutrients. The wax is obtained through the cold pressing or solvent extraction of rice bran oil, followed by refining and purification processes to isolate the wax for use in cosmetic formulations.
