Rice Bran Wax

Rice wax, a by-product of rice oil production. It is a naturally hard, crystalline vegetable wax. Rice bran oil is first gently heated and then cooled until the waxy part turns into a solid and can be filtered out using vegetable ethanol. Its odor is similar to wax crayons but can be easily masked as per preferences. It is used as a skin conditioning and protective agent. In hair products, it smoothens and softens the hair after application as it restores the moisture of the hair. Rice bran wax is also used in small amounts to create gels. This wax is used in cosmetics, skincare, and hair care and formulators view it as a thickener, binder, plasticizer, and gelling agent. It contributes to hardness, texture, strength, and mould release.
