ANUA Rice + Ceramide Enzyme Cleansing Powder is a multi-purpose Korean powder cleanser with a uniquely satisfying texture that transforms into a creamy lather the moment it meets water. Formulated with rice extract water, ceramide NP, alpha-arbutin, and gentle enzymes (papain + protease), it cleanses, exfoliates, brightens, and balances — all in one step.
The fine rice powder gently sloughs away dead skin and surface buildup, while ceramides reinforce the barrier and alpha-arbutin works on uneven tone over time. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid), lactic acid, tartaric acid, and a rice-derived nourishing complex round out the formula for a radiant, balanced, glowy finish. Best of all — it can be used as a daily enzyme cleanser or as a 10-minute brightening mask, giving you two treatments in one jar.

As a daily cleanser
- Pour a small amount of the powder into damp palms.
- Add a splash of water and rub together to create a creamy paste/lather.
- Gently massage onto damp skin for 30-60 seconds.
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
- Follow with toner, serum, and moisturizer.
As a brightening mask (2-3x per week)
- Mix the powder with water — or, for an extra glow, with the ANUA Rice 70+ Toner — to form a thicker paste.
- Apply evenly to the face, avoiding the eye and lip area.
- Leave on for 5-10 minutes (don't let it fully dry out).
- Rinse off with lukewarm water for a radiant, glowy, and smoother complexion.
- Follow with serum and moisturizer.
Pro tip: For best brightening results, layer with the ANUA Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Serum or ANUA Azelaic Acid 10% Serum afterwards — the freshly exfoliated skin will absorb actives more efficiently. Always finish with SPF 30+ during the day.
