Concern level
High concern
Finely milled oat kernel material used as a soothing, absorbent, and skin-conditioning cosmetic ingredient. It is typically used in bath, cleanser, mask, and powder formats to help reduce the feel of dryness and discomfort while adding a мягкий, cushiony slip to formulas. Its benefits come from the oat matrix (starch, proteins, beta-glucan-related components, and lipids), rather than from a single discrete molecule.
