INTRODUCTION ABOUT OAT
Oats, scientifically known as Avena sativa, originate from England, France, Poland, Germany, and Russia. Nowadays, oats are cultivated worldwide. In Vietnam, oat grass is primarily grown in the Northern regions, with the grains used for medicinal and food purposes, while the stems and leaves are utilized in livestock farming. The main components of oats include starch (65%–85%), protein (15%–20%), lipids (3%–11%), fiber (5%), and beta-glucans (5%).
THE BENEFITS OF OAT EXTRACT
The cosmetic researchers have identified several benefits of oats for use in skincare products, including:
Antioxidant Properties
Oats contain various phenolic compounds, particularly Avenanthramides with approximately 300 ppm, exhibiting antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities in different cell types. Additionally, due to the high lipid content in oat grains, rich in unsaturated fatty acids, they contain various compounds to protect lipids from oxidative processes. The most important antioxidants in oat flour are the Glyceryl Esters of Hydroxycinnamic, Ferulic, p-coumaric, and Caffeic acids
Anti-Inflammatory Effects
In a study on the anti-inflammatory capabilities of oat extract contributing to the treatment of itching related to dry and irritated skin by Michelle Garay and colleagues, oat extract demonstrated the ability to reduce the activity of the NF-κB stimulant, decrease the process of reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, and lower the production of IL-8 (inflammatory and oxidative mediators as well as itching and skin conditions). Specific results showed a significant improvement in skin dryness and itching conditions for most subjects after 14 days of use.
Restoring the skin's protective barrier
The impact of reducing negative effects on the damaged acid mantle layer in individuals with allergic or dry skin from the protein content in oats has directly contributed to the benefits of the skin's protective barrier. Furthermore, incorporating oat extract into skincare lotions has shown significant clinical improvements in dry skin conditions, increasing skin moisture, reducing Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL), and thus effectively enhancing the skin's protective barrier. This brings benefits to both dry and damaged skin.
Skin restoration
Oat extract with phytochemical components helps care for and restore the skin by regulating the expression of genes related to the skin's protective barrier in the outermost layers of the epidermis. It creates tight connections and regulates lipid levels in the skin, providing the ability to buffer pH and stabilize the skin's pH.
