Our Journey to You

Women in Japan care for their skin with a beauty ritual that is as elegant as it is simple. Delicately polishing skin to a jewel-like luster is at the heart of their daily practice. For centuries, Japanese women have used the milky water from the first wash of rice to prepare a perfectly smooth complexion. The Rice Polish Collection brings this timeless secret to the modern skincare lover.

About Our Packaging

Inspired by kaizen, the philosophy of continuous improvement and learning, we are on a journey toward sustainability. The Rice Polish is packaged in a mono material jar of 30% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic for easy recycling. It features a new, easy-to-pour spout made with greater accessibility in mind. This push-to-open spout also better prevents water from getting into the jar, making for a more shower-friendly experience.

Sapna D. (5/5)

It’s quite good.

"This does gently cleanse the skin but you have to be so quick because the granules dissolve very quickly in the water. I don’t think I’d buy it again as I’m terrified of spilling it."

Just Beautiful

"I have just recently purchased this product, and I must say I’m very impressed, lathers very well, you do not need a lot of this product, didn’t sting like other well known brands have done, nor was it abrasive. Skin was beautiful and soft after using, will definitely be repurchasing again, and cannot wait to try other products from you."
