What is it?

Noted for its soothing, emollient and protective properties, it helps to soothe and defend the skin against irritation and external stressors.

What is this for?

Create a natural protective film that reduces water loss and delivers immediate relief from itching and redness. It helps improve skin comfort and maintain hydration, promoting softer, more elastic, less reactive skin.

Did you know that oats are one of the oldest and most thoroughly researched soothing ingredients in dermatology? Avena Sativa Kernel Flour acts as a "protective cushion" for sensitive skin: it soothes, hydrates, and protects. Its natural components – beta-glucans, lipids, and antioxidants – form a thin barrier that shields skin from external irritants and helps reduce redness and irritation. Scientific studies* have shown that Avena Sativa Kernel Flour helps reduce redness and itching, improving skin comfort and barrier function.
