Introducing our Dry Oatmeal Scrub, a naturally gentle and highly effective exfoliant designed to reveal smoother, softer, and more radiant skin.

Perfect for DIY skincare enthusiasts and professional formulators alike, our dry oatmeal scrub is your key to unlocking a healthier complexion.

Description and Key Features

Our Dry Oatmeal Scrub is simply finely milled oats, processed to create a soft, granular texture suitable for skin exfoliation. Oats have been revered for centuries in skincare for their soothing, anti-inflammatory, and cleansing properties. This dry form ensures maximum freshness and allows for complete customization when creating your skincare products.

Key features and benefits:

• Gentle Exfoliation: The finely ground particles of oatmeal provide a soft, non-abrasive exfoliation that effectively removes dead skin cells and impurities without causing irritation or micro-tears, making it perfect for daily use.
• Soothing & Calming: Oatmeal is renowned for its calming properties. It helps to soothe irritated, itchy, and sensitive skin, reducing redness and discomfort.
• Deep Cleansing: It gently cleanses pores, helping to remove excess oil and dirt, which can lead to breakouts.
• Moisture Retention: Oatmeal contains compounds that help the skin retain its natural moisture, preventing dryness and flakiness, and leaving the skin feeling hydrated and supple.
• Rich in Nutrients: Packed with avenanthramides (antioxidants unique to oats), beta-glucans, and lipids, it nourishes the skin, promoting overall skin health and resilience.
• Versatile Dry Form: As a dry ingredient, it offers incredible flexibility in formulation. You can mix it with water, hydrossols, honey, yogurt, or various oils to create custom fresh-batch scrubs tailored to specific skin needs.

Cosmetic Recipe: "Calm & Glow" Soothing Oatmeal Face Mask

Create a deeply soothing and gently exfoliating face mask perfect for sensitive, dry, or irritated skin, leaving it soft, hydrated, and radiant.

Instructions for Preparation:

1. Prepare Bowl: In a small, clean, non-metallic bowl, combine the Dry Oatmeal Scrub, honey, and plain yogurt.
2. Mix & Adjust: Gradually add the hydrosol, mixing with a small spoon or spatula until you achieve a smooth, spreadable paste. The consistency should be thick enough to stay on your face but thin enough to spread easily. Adjust hydrosol amount as needed.
3. Immediate Use: This mask is made fresh and should be used immediately after preparation for best results. Do not store.

Recommendations for Application and Use:

• Application: Apply the mask evenly to clean, damp skin, avoiding the eye and lip areas. You can gently massage it in circular motions for added exfoliation, especially on areas like the T-zone.
• Leave On: Leave the mask on for 10-15 minutes, allowing the active ingredients to penetrate and soothe the skin.
• Removal: Rinse off thoroughly with lukewarm water, using gentle circular motions to further exfoliate as you rinse. Pat your skin dry with a soft towel.
• Frequency: Use 1-2 times per week for optimal results.
• Storage: Since this is a fresh mask, do not prepare large batches. Only make what you need for one application.
• Customization: Feel free to customize this recipe by adding a few drops of a skin-friendly carrier oil (like jojoba or sweet almond oil) for extra nourishment, or a drop of suitable essential oil (e.g., lavender for added calming properties, ensuring safe dilution).
• Patch Test: Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin (e.g., inner forearm) before widespread use, especially if you have sensitive skin or are using new ingredients.
