Science & Benefits

Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract is a purified liquid extract that concentrates the most bioactive components of the oat: avenanthramides and beta-glucans. Avenanthramides are potent polyphenols with profound anti-itch and anti-inflammatory properties, making this extract the 'gold standard' for calming irritated acne. As a humectant, it is rich in complex sugars that form a protective moisture film on the skin. It is entirely non-comedogenic and zero-irritant. Unlike oat flour, this extract provides a weightless, transparent finish that is ideal for lightweight serums and toners intended to soothe active inflammation while providing deep hydration.
