Rice Milk Softening Hand Soak
Rice milk's starch content is the distinguishing feature of this soak: as hands soak, the starch leaves a light, silky protective film on the skin's surface that helps retain hydration even after the soak ends, distinguishing it from the Oat Milk Hand Soak's purely beta-glucan-based approach.
