Product details

An open jar of Arencia Rice Mucin Cleanser heaped with white paste, on a warm cream table beside white rice grains and a golden rice ear

Gentle + all-in-one

A white rice mochi cleanser with mucin that removes makeup in one step and leaves skin soft and hydrated.

Arencia’s signature mochi texture comes from pounding the formula 7,200 times. Rice powder, rice extract and rice bran cleanse gently and nourish, and mucin adds a cushiony slip, so makeup, excess oil and fine dust wash away without a second cleanse.
