The use of food-derived ingredients in personal care also provides a view of healthiness and nutritional value for the skin. Oats have traditionally been regarded as healthy to eat; however, their popularity has exploded in recent years with not only the addition of innovative products but also increasing awareness of their cholesterol-lowering properties1. They are also increasingly recognized as an ingredient with very low allergenic potential, but very high, proven, therapeutic value1. 

Additionally, oats can benefit hair by providing nutrients like iron, zinc, and omega-6 fatty acids2. These nutrients may contribute to a healthy scalp and hair. Oats can also act as a natural moisturizer, helping to alleviate dryness and reduce irritation on the scalp. Moreover, the beta-glucans in oats may enhance hair texture and promote overall hair health. 

Furthermore, oats have been used for centuries to calm and soothe irritated skin. Oats are rich in proteins, beta-glucans, and avenanthramides that are known to have moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and anti-irritant properties3. This makes for great cosmetic applications for those with problem or easily irritated skin. Avenanthramides are known to suppress histamine release at low levels, while beta-glucans improve the plumpness of the skin and reduce signs of aging by promoting collagen synthesis3. When used in cosmetics, oat can soothe, smooth, and nourish skin and hair.

In addition, oats are known for their ability to interact with the skin while providing rejuvenating benefits. The known moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant benefits typically associated with oatmeal originate from oat bran4. The bran is known to contain nutrients, lipids, beta-glucans, and avenanthramides4. Anti-inflammatory properties can assist to reduce redness and inflammaging, which is aging associated with inflammation, while antioxidants can help protect against free radical damage. This cellular damage can result in fine lines, wrinkles, reduced wound healing, and accelerated signs of aging.
