## How it works

This cleansing powder's own ingredient list opens with the base that carries Allantoin, which sits near the top on the list. Oryza Sativa (Rice) Powder follows in the front half, one of the formula's named working ingredients. Ceramide NP follows mid-list, one of the formula's named working ingredients. Ascorbic Acid follows mid-list, one of the formula's named working ingredients. The texture is built for that placement, layering under or over the rest of a Korean routine without disrupting it. Together these actives are why the formula suits its role as the second cleanser step, worked up into a foam with water, applied 2 to 3 times a week.

## How to use

1. Use the Rice Enzyme Brightening Cleansing Powder as your first step, morning or evening, on wet hands rather than a wet face.
2. One sachet or one scoop into a wet palm, worked with a little water until it turns to foam before it goes anywhere near the face.
3. Rinse with lukewarm water, then tone while skin is still damp.
4. Once a day is plenty for a powder wash. Do not use it on the same evening as another exfoliating step.

## FAQ

### What does Rice Enzyme Brightening Cleansing Powder actually contain?

Allantoin is the ingredient we lead with because it sits near the top on this product's own ingredient list, ahead of most of the rest of the formula. The full ingredient panel on this page is drawn directly from that same list, not from a marketing summary.

### Where does Oryza Sativa (Rice) Powder sit on the ingredient list?

Oryza Sativa (Rice) Powder sits in the front half on the list, which places it among the formula's named working ingredients rather than as a trace addition at the very end. Its position on the list is one of the reasons this formula pairs it with Allantoin.

### How do I fit this cleansing powder into a routine?

This cleansing powder is meant to be used 2 to 3 times a week, as the second cleanser step, worked up into a foam with water. Apply it in that order relative to the rest of a routine, giving each layer a moment to settle before the next, and give it a few weeks of consistent use before judging the result.

### Is this the same formula sold in Korea, or a US version?

This is the authentic Korean-market formula for Rice Enzyme Brightening Cleansing Powder, sold at retail in Korea rather than reformulated for the US shelf. Anua is the Korean brand that built its catalogue around heartleaf, birch and other calming botanicals sourced for the Korean market rather than a US-reformulated line.

### What skin type suits this cleansing powder?

It suits normal skin and dry or dehydrated skin looking for everyday hydration, used as part of a full Korean routine rather than as a standalone fix. As with any new formula, patch test first and introduce it gradually alongside what is already in a routine.
