Oats are not only a delicious and nutritious grain, but also a true blessing for the skin. They have been known for their beneficial properties for centuries, and in recent years they have also found their way into skincare.
The effect of oats on the skin
Oats have a soothing effect on dry, eczematous, itchy skin and rashes. They can be particularly helpful during recurring flare-ups of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.
Oats are not only good for the body from the inside out; their diverse range of nutrients is very well tolerated and healthy for sensitive skin. This is because oats contain beta-glucan , barrier-healing omega-3 and -6 fatty acids, phenolic antioxidants, and the anti-inflammatory substance avenatheramide.

Particularly high-quality forms of oats include oat kernel extract or colloidal oatmeal . The difference to regular oat extract lies in the fineness of the powder.
Colloidal oats are made from whole rolled oats, so the bran and its associated nutrients are also included. This has a more soothing effect on the skin. To produce colloidal oats, oat grains must be ground into an ultra-fine powder, which can then be dissolved in water.
