FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Silky, Rich Emollient: Oat Carrier Oil’s smooth, luxurious texture conditions the skin and hair, delivering a natural glide and a lightweight softness while improving the sensory profile of creams, lotions, and balms.

Improves Moisture Retention: Naturally high in lipids, Tocopherols, and antioxidants, Oat Carrier Oil supports the skin barrier by locking in moisture.

Naturally Versatile Ingredient: With its emulsifying properties and rich antioxidant profile, Oat Carrier Oil helps stabilize oil-in-water formulations and improves product consistency. It also blends well with other carrier oils and active ingredients, making it suitable for emulsions and anhydrous formulations.

Hair & Scalp Conditioning: As a hair care ingredient, Oat Carrier Oil promotes manageability and adds a light sheen to strands while balancing moisture levels on the scalp. Recommended for leave-in treatments, serums, and scalp massage oils without greasiness.


DESCRIPTION

Oat Carrier Oil is a nourishing, solvent-extracted oil derived from the kernels of the Avena sativa plant. This clear to golden liquid carries a light oatmeal aroma and a rich, smooth consistency. Its luxurious feel and slower absorption make it a preferred ingredient for skin care and hair care products aiming to deliver intense moisture, long-lasting softness, and protection from environmental elements.

Rich in antioxidants, Tocopherols, and beneficial lipids, Oat Carrier Oil supports moisture retention and enhances the skin’s texture. It is especially effective on dry, delicate, or mature skin types. Oat Carrier Oil also functions as a natural emulsifier and contributes to the viscosity and texture of cosmetic products.

With its excellent compatibility across a wide range of formulations, including creams, balms, lotions, soaps, hair treatments, and lip products, Oat Carrier Oil brings both functionality and a luxurious user experience to personal care products.


DIRECTIONS AND SUGGESTED USAGE

  • Skin-Nurturing Emulsions: Add 2–10% Oat Carrier Oil to the total formulation of creams, lotions, and balms to enhance emollience and skin texture for dry or sensitive skin types.
  • Scalp & Hair Care: Use 1–5% in hair serums, conditioners, or scalp oils to support manageability, impart softness, and create a smooth application experience.
  • Body Care & Massage Oils: For improved glide and moisture in massage therapy products, blend 3–10% of this carrier oil. It can also be applied to body care products for luxurious, non-greasy moisture.
  • Lip & Solid Balms: Oat Carrier Oil can be added up to 5% in lip care or multi-purpose balm products for improved spreadability and a naturally conditioning element.
