Drinking sake or applying it to the face as a toner actually inhibits the production of melanin, decreasing the appearance of dark spots like freckles and sun spots, plus it could also prevent one from getting wrinkles because the ferulic acid in sake absorbs UV rays from the sun. Aside from brighter and firmer skin, it could also soothe those who have skin problems like acne or eczema.
