Rice NS
RICE NS is a multifunctional modified rice starch produced by Agrana through cross-linking, resulting in a white, ultra-fine powder with a particle size of 7–11 microns. This starch is both hydrophilic and lipophilic, allowing it to efficiently adsorb water- and oil-soluble substances without swelling. Its microcrystalline structure provides a natural soft glow and a seamless transition between powdered and bare skin areas. RICE NS offers benefits such as improved opacity, adhesion, and creaminess compared to talc, and it does not clog pores. It also exhibits a slightly acidic pH (~5.5), aligning with the skin's natural acid mantle, and provides a cooling effect upon application.
