Rice Powder: A Royal Heritage at the Heart of Exceptional Soaps

 

The history of rice powder

Rice powder occupies a significant place in the history of cosmetics, particularly during the reign of Louis XIV, when it was prized for its ability to whiten complexions and set wigs. This practice reflected the aesthetic standards of the time, when pale skin symbolized nobility and high social status.

Reinvention of this fragrance by La Savonnerie Royale

Today, La Savonnerie Royale pays tribute to this heritage by integrating the fragrance of rice powder into its collection of solid and liquid soaps. These products offer a unique sensory experience, blending floral and fruity notes of rose, violet and coconut milk, evoking the refinement of the French royal courts.

Poudre de Riz solid soap, enriched with organic shea butter, is ideal for nourishing and softening the skin. Its rich texture is particularly suitable for dry areas such as elbows, knees, feet and hands. It can also be used as a daily moisturizer or after-shave balm to soothe and nourish the skin.

Poudre de Riz liquid soap, made from olive and coconut oils, is suitable for all skin types, including the most delicate. Presented in a reusable glass bottle with luxurious gold enamel decoration, it combines practicality and aesthetics.

By incorporating the historic fragrance of rice powder into its soaps, La Savonnerie Royale perpetuates an age-old tradition, offering products that combine history, elegance and skin benefits.
