Brilio.net - Having a naturally glowing and bright face is indeed a dream. Especially for women who always prioritize appearance.
A glowing and bright face will support your appearance and increase your self-confidence. But unfortunately, getting a glowing and bright face is not easy. There are various external factors that actually make the face dull and dark.
Some of the factors in question are sun exposure, pollution, weather changes, accumulated dead skin cells, and an unhealthy lifestyle. Sunlight is actually the biggest enemy for most people who want to have a naturally glowing and bright face.
Not without reason, UV rays from the sun will trigger the production of melanin in the skin, as an effort to naturally protect the skin from the bad effects of sunlight. Well, excessive melanin is what will make the skin look dull and dark.
One of the efforts made to get a glowing and bright face is to use masks made from natural ingredients. Not a few people use yoghurt to help nourish and care for their face.
But unfortunately, because the price is relatively expensive, many people object to using this material. If you are one of them, you don't need to worry, because you can use other natural ingredients that are no less effective than yoghurt.

Can rice help treat acne and scars?
Not only does it make your face glow and bright, rice can also be useful for treating acne and scars, you know. This is because rice contains phytic acid which has an exfoliating effect on the skin.
Phytic acid is an antioxidant alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) which, when compared to other types of AHA, is gentler on the skin. In fact, phytic acid is as effective in treating acne and hyperpigmentation (dark spots), as glycolic acid and salicylic acid.
