Key Ingredients:

Rice Powder: A beloved ingredient in East and South Asian beauty traditions, finely milled rice powder acts as a gentle physical exfoliant to buff away dead skin cells and reveal smoother, brighter skin underneath. Unlike harsh scrubs, rice powder polishes the skin without micro-tears, making it ideal for daily or regular use—even on sensitive skin. It also contains natural brightening agents, such as phytic acid and antioxidants, which help even skin tone and restore radiance.

Saccharomyces/Rice Ferment Filtrate:This powerful ferment is a byproduct of sake or rice wine fermentation and is prized in Japanese and Korean skincare. Rich in amino acids, peptides, enzymes, and vitamins, it supports a healthy skin microbiome, boosts hydration, and helps improve the skin’s texture and glow. Its bioavailable nutrients enhance skin renewal, while its pH-balancing properties make it excellent for maintaining a clear, luminous complexion.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3):A multitasking vitamin that’s scientifically proven to benefit almost every skin type. Niacinamide helps brighten dullness, fade the look of dark spots and discoloration, reduce the appearance of pores, and strengthen the skin’s natural barrier. It also helps regulate excess oil production and supports smoother, more refined skin texture over time. With consistent use, it contributes to an overall clearer, more radiant look.

Henna Extract: Used for centuries in Ayurvedic and Middle Eastern beauty rituals, henna is not only for hair and body art, it also offers purifying and toning properties for the skin. This botanical extract is rich in tannins and antioxidants, which help support clear, balanced skin by reducing excess oil and minimizing visible breakouts. In skincare, it’s celebrated for promoting a refined, matte complexion while staying gentle on the skin.

Water Lily Extract: Traditionally revered for its purity and symbolism in many cultures, water lily extract delivers both hydrating and soothing benefits. Rich in natural antioxidants and flavonoids, it helps calm visible redness and promotes a balanced, refreshed appearance. Its mild astringent qualities make it beneficial for refining pores while enhancing skin clarity and overall vitality.

Noni Fruit Extract Known as a miracle fruit in Polynesian cultures, noni is packed with over 150 active compounds including vitamins A and C, flavonoids, essential fatty acids, and xeronine. It offers antioxidant protection, helps boost skin immunity, and encourages cellular regeneration, making it especially valuable for skin that feels tired, dull, or stressed. It supports a visibly more resilient, glowing complexion from within.

The Ritual: Apply a dime size  of Hygieia Luminous Exfoliating Cleanser to damp skin. Gently massage in circular motions, allowing the fine rice powder and botanical actives to lift impurities and polish away dull surface cells.

As you cleanse, take a moment to pause and inhale the naturally uplifting aroma, a delicate blend of citrus and subtle herbal notes designed to ground the senses and bring presence to your ritual.

Avoid the immediate eye area. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat skin dry.

Use 3–4 times a week, or as desired, to maintain a radiant, clarified complexion. Follow with Pomp Essence, Serum, or a moisturizer for optimal results.
