But since it’s cheap, easy, and already in the kitchen, I gave it a shot. Surprisingly, after using it regularly for a week or two, I noticed my skin looked brighter, felt smoother, and didn’t break out as often. Turns out, rice water is packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that are actually great for your skin.
