Rice Bran Carrier Oil is one of the best sources of tocotrienols, an antioxidant that may be much more powerful and effective than Vitamin E. It is a mild oil perfect for dry, flaky, sensitive, mature, and delicate skin (e.g. baby's skin), where additional moisture is required. It is effective for keeping skin smooth. It is also a known alternative to olive oil in soap making.
