Oat Milk

 

Oat Milk (Avena Sativa)

Oat milk, a creamy, plant-based extract derived from soaked and blended oats, is a powerhouse ingredient for skin and hair care. Packed with vitamins, minerals, and beta-glucans, oat milk is known for its deep hydration, soothing properties, and ability to strengthen the skin barrier. Its lightweight yet nourishing nature makes it ideal for sensitive, dry, or irritated skin, providing intense hydration without clogging pores or causing heaviness.


Skin Benefits:

  • Deeply Hydrating: Oat milk is rich in polysaccharides and beta-glucans, which help retain moisture and keep the skin soft and supple.
  • Calms and Soothes Irritation: The anti-inflammatory properties of oat milk help relieve redness, itching, and sensitivity, making it ideal for eczema, rosacea, and psoriasis.
  • Supports Skin Barrier Function: Oat milk strengthens the skin’s natural defense against pollutants and harsh environmental factors.
  • Rich in Antioxidants: Contains avenanthramides, which help fight oxidative stress, reducing premature aging signs like fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Gentle and Non-Irritating: Its soothing and hypoallergenic nature makes it perfect for sensitive skin and those prone to allergies.

Hair Benefits:

  • Hydrates and Softens Hair: The natural emollients in oat milk deeply condition the hair, leaving it silky and manageable.
  • Strengthens Hair Strands: Oat milk contains proteins that reinforce the hair structure, reducing breakage and split ends.
  • Soothes Dry and Itchy Scalp: Its anti-inflammatory properties help relieve dandruff, itchiness, and scalp irritation.
