sidmool White Rice Bran Soap

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-09-25

What is this product?

A 100 g rice bran face soap bar from Korean brand sidmool, original unscented variant, sold for moist cleansing and a paler-looking skin tone. The 20-entry list leads with glycerin and washes with lauryl glucoside and sodium fatty acid salts, with 3 percent rice bran water, rice bran and rice bran oil, sugars and sodium hyaluronate. There is no fragrance entry and no sulfate-named entry; the brand calls the bar weakly alkaline without a pH value. Brightening claims are not tested on the page. The list changed in July 2025 when rice bran water replaced rice bran extract.

What makes it different?

A soap-salt bar built around three rice bran components, with rice bran water printed at 3 percent, sold in an unscented original variant beside a separately listed scented one.

What is in it?

The full ingredient list as the brand publishes it, in the printed order. Each name links to what we know about that ingredient.
