Rice starch for mattifying and adsorption in powders, dry-care and skin systems
INCI Name: oryza sativa (rice) starch | COSMOS
REISITA NATURAL is an unmodified rice (Oryza sativa) starch formulated as an aesthetic modifier and adsorber for cosmetic use. It delivers reliable mattification, oil and moisture adsorption and a soft, non-whitening skin feel across powder, dry-care and emulsion systems while meeting natural-cosmetic standards.
Key benefits
- High surface area and fine particle character produce effective oil adsorption and sustained mattification.
- Delivers a soft, velvety skin feel and clean reapplication in pressed powders and foundations.
- Improves dry-shampoo performance as a filler and texturiser, enhancing hair feel with minimal residue.
- Compatible with emulsion phases to reduce surface shine and support matt boosts in high-oil skin creams.

Enhance the activity of your cosmetics the natural way by choosing the right variant. We provide formulation guidance, sample trials and scale-up support.
Formulation insights
How rice starch controls shine and oil without whitening
REISITA NATURAL combines particle fineness and a high specific surface area to adsorb sebum and moisture while keeping an unobtrusive appearance on skin. In powder systems the rice starch contributes opacity and mattification. Combined with mineral derivatives it supports cohesion and sensorial stability in pressed formats.
In surfactant and water-free systems, REISITA helps improve foam quality and after-feel while acting as a natural opacifier and filler. Its low microbial load (achieved by heat treatment) and conformity with natural-cosmetic standards make it a practical choice where certification and clean-label declarations matter. These attributes position REISITA as a polyvalent aesthetic modifier across powder, dry-care and emulsion applications.
