💧 Ceramide-3 Powder - Rice Bran Extract – Water-Soluble Cosmetic Grade
Rice Bran Ceramide-3 Powder – Water-Soluble Cosmetic Ingredient for Serums & Toners is a plant-derived, cosmetic-grade raw material for formulators, skincare brands, and DIY cosmetic makers creating water-based ceramide serums, toners, gels, lotions, and barrier-support skincare.
Derived from rice bran, this specialized Ceramide-3 powder undergoes a proprietary spray-drying process that makes it water-soluble and easier to incorporate into water-based serums, toners, gels, facial mists, lightweight lotions, and oil-free cosmetic formulations.
Rice-derived ceramides are used in skincare formulations designed to help replenish essential barrier lipids, support moisture retention, and promote smoother, softer, and more resilient-looking skin. This makes Rice Bran Ceramide-3 a highly relevant ingredient for products intended for dry skin, dehydrated skin, barrier-support skincare, and moisture-focused routines.
What makes this Rice Bran Ceramide-3 different? Conventional ceramide powders are hydrophobic and can be difficult to incorporate into water-based formulations. This rice-bran-derived Ceramide-3 undergoes a proprietary spray-drying process that creates a water-soluble, water-compatible powder for aqueous skincare and oil-free cosmetic systems.
Ideal For:
Water-based serums, toners, essences, facial mists, gel formulations, lightweight lotions, barrier-support skincare, DIY skincare, small-batch production, and professional cosmetic formulation.
