Hydrolysed Rice Protein
Hydrolysed rice protein is a water-soluble extract obtained by breaking down rice proteins into smaller amino acids, a gentle, vegan powerhouse that supports the skin’s needs in both the Follicular and Luteal phases.
Hydrating
Deeply conditioning, and science-backed, hydrolysed rice protein reinforces hydration, elasticity, and calm, helping your skin stay balanced, nourished, and resilient across these two contrasting phases.
Follicular Benefits
In the Follicular phase, as oestrogen rises and skin glows with natural plumpness, this protein forms a lightweight protective film that locks in moisture, boosts elasticity, and enhances the barrier, helping preserve that radiant, resilient feel without heaviness.
Luteal Benefits
In the Luteal phase, when progesterone can trigger inflammation and disrupt balance, hydrolysed rice protein calms redness and provides anti-irritant support while helping maintain a more harmonious skin microflora. Rich in key amino acids, it delivers strong antioxidant activity, scavenging free radicals and protecting against oxidative stress, while the overall peptide profile supports hyaluronidase inhibition, helping preserve hyaluronic acid levels crucial for hydration and combating signs of aging.
