Oat Oil Introduction
Oat oil, also known as oat kernel oil, is a natural and gentle emollient that plays a big role in maintaining the skin’s natural barrier. Extracted from the oat kernel, this oil is rich in essential fatty acids, linoleic acid and oleic acid, which are good for the skin. These fatty acids nourish and protect the skin, making oat oil a great ingredient for skincare products, especially for sensitive or dry skin. Its moisturizing and protective properties keep the skin hydrated and resilient, a nice addition to any skincare routine.
Compared to Other Oils
Unlike heavier oils like Argan or Castor, Oat Oil has a lipid profile that matches the natural sebum in the skin. Its unique lipid profile includes ceramides and free fatty acids which are good for the skin. This allows for better moisture retention and non greasy feel. Oat oil retains moisture, forms a barrier that minimises water loss.
High antioxidant content gives a healthy looking complexion and Omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acid blend gives softness and hydration without weighing down the skin or hair.
Uses and Applications
Oat Oil is very versatile across skincare and haircare formulations:
-
Add to lotions and creams for long lasting hydration
-
Blend into massage oils for a soft, glide friendly texture
-
Use in hair oils and masks to smooth frizz and condition
-
Include in baby care products for a gentle, nourishing base
It’s compatible with other oils such as Apricot Kernel, Peach Kernel, Argan and Camellia so it’s a popular ingredient in oil blends. Oat oil is also compatible with apricot kernel carrier oil to enhance moisturisation and skin compatibility.
