What it is

Oats contain beta-glucan, a sugar that holds water, along with lipids and compounds called avenanthramides. Oat preparations have been used on dry, itchy skin for a very long time.

We use a filtered extract so the lotion stays light and does not feel floury.

How we use it

At 1% in Everyday Body Lotion, with 5% glycerin.

How to use

After a bath or shower, on slightly damp skin.

Pairs well with

Glycerin and panthenol.

Cautions

Oats can be processed alongside wheat. If you have coeliac disease or an oat allergy, check with your doctor first.
