8. Skin benefits of rice water

Some experts believe that rice water may have benefits for skin as well as hair, with one study finding that the starch in rice water helped to heal skin damaged from dermatitis. Rice water may also have a drying effect on the skin, which can be beneficial to some, but means that those with dry scalps should be careful not to overuse rice water - around once or twice a week is fine.
