This fine silky powder has been produced using a unique process, making it extremely easy to use even at low ambient temperatures.  The process increases the capability to absorb oil resulting in excellent creams and lotions without an ‘oily’ feel.

The availability of beta glucan has been enhanced, which allows Oat Cosmetics Colloidal Oatmeal to exhibit more effective moisturising properties than alternative colloidal oatmeals.

Colloidal Oatmeal is a natural anti-irritant, that gives a silky smooth feel to the skin. It has good skin buffering properties and is an effective UVA sunscreen and antioxidant. It also demonstrates excellent cleansing properties.

This is the first Ecocert & Cosmos 'natural' Colloidal Oatmeal available.
