Because of its moisturizing quality, Rice Bran Oil is great for formulations for mature, delicate, or sensitive skin. Rice Bran Oil is also a natural anti-oxidant and rich in Vitamin E. Rice bran wax, obtained from rice bran oil, is used as a substitute for carnauba wax in cosmetics, confectionery, shoe creams and polishing compounds.

Rice bran oil has a composition similar to that of peanut oil, with 38% monounsaturated, 37% polyunsaturated, and 25% saturated fatty acids. This makes Rice Bran Oil a good alternative to Peanut Oil due to nut allergy concerns.
