Hi, I'm Fatma, pharmacist & founder of Oat Body. As someone who suffers from sensitive skin, I have always been passionate about my skincare routine. With Oat Body, I wanted to create a product range that is gentle on the skin but one that packs a punch. Enter our skin hero, oatmeal.

At Oat Body, our mission is to help you overcome your skin struggles and feel confident in your own skin. We source the highest quality ingredients and believe in using the cleanest products on our skin. All of our products are entirely natural and completely preservative free, vegan-friendly, not tested on animals, and proudly made in Australia.

Oatmeal has long been celebrated for its numerous health benefits, but did you know it can also work wonders for your skin? Oatmeal-based skin products offer a range of advantages that can transform your skincare routine. Oatmeal is a powerhouse ingredient that has numerous benefits for the skin. 

First and foremost, oatmeal is renowned for its gentle and soothing properties. It possesses natural anti-inflammatory qualities that can calm irritated skin and reduce redness, making it ideal for those with sensitive or easily irritated skin. Whether you're dealing with dryness, itchiness, or minor skin irritations, oatmeal can provide much-needed relief. It also has anti-microbial effects, which helps to kill acne-causing bacteria and tackle breakouts, and is also excellent at soaking up excess oil from the skin. 

Furthermore, oatmeal is a fantastic exfoliator, with saponins that provide skin exfoliation and detoxification by gently buffing away dead skin cells, leaving your skin feeling smooth, soft, and rejuvenated. By encouraging gentle exfoliation, oatmeal helps to unclog pores, preventing acne breakouts and promoting a clearer complexion.

Another benefit of oatmeal-based products is their moisturizing effect. Oatmeal acts as a humectant, attracting and retaining moisture in the skin, which helps to keep it hydrated and supple. This moisture barrier can also provide relief to individuals with dry or itchy skin conditions, such as eczema or psoriasis. Plus, because it is so gentle, it is suitable for all skin types.

Oatmeal contains natural antioxidants that help combat free radicals and protect the skin from environmental damage. These antioxidants can help reduce the signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles, while promoting a youthful and radiant appearance. It is also a rich source of zinc, amino acids, and Vitamin E and Vitamin B complexes that assist with fading scars and pigmentation, dark spots, and skin discolouration, allowing for a brighter skin tone, as well as flavonoids that protect against UV rays.

Whether you use our oatmeal-based scrubs, face oils, or any other Oat Body product, incorporating oatmeal into your skincare routine can be a game-changer. Its gentle nature, exfoliating prowess, moisturizing abilities, and antioxidant properties make oatmeal a versatile ingredient that can benefit a wide range of skin types and concerns. Embrace the nourishing power of oatmeal and unlock healthier, happier skin.
