HYDROGENATED OAT KERNEL OIL

Hydrogenated oat kernel oil, also known as oat butter, is a firmer, creamy variant of oat oil that has been stabilized through hydrogenation. This oat butter retains the essential skin-caring properties of the original oil and contains functional lipid compounds that have a particularly nourishing and regenerating effect. The buttery texture makes it particularly pleasant to use.(1-8)

Advantages:

  • Supports the skin in case of irritation and helps with itching.

  • Protects the skin from moisture loss and leaves it feeling supple.

  • Promotes the natural skin barrier and strengthens dry, rough or stressed skin.

Ideal for soothing and barrier-strengthening formulations.1
