Oat-cosmetics-AvenaPlex-New-StudyOat Cosmetics has released new data to show that its natural active lipid complex, AvenaPLex, improves skin condition. Results for the studies will be presented on Booth 335 at CaliSCC Suppliers' Day (2nd – 3rd October) in Long Beach, CA.

Cutaneous Skin Hydration Study, Consumer Perception Study and 28-Day Comedogenicity Study have been conducted to enhance the data pack for AvenaPLex. The strong data pack will be available in full when Oat Cosmetics will co-exhibit with US Distributor Charkit Chemical Company.

AvenaPlex Protects Skin Aging


  • It is Avena sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract.
  • It replenishes skin lipids lost through ageing.
  • It is a complex of skin identical lipids that delivers the short-term and long-term protection of skin aging.
  • It assists in the rapid absorption of skin beneficial molecules, supplements skin lipids, aids the strengthening of the dermis and helps prevent the loss of skin elasticity and firmness.

Key Conclusions from the Studies


  • Non-comedogenic.
  • After 28 days, it significantly increases skin hydration.
  • It reduces the number of Micro cysts, Blackheads, papules and Pustules over a 28-day period.
  • It increases the production of the skin’s natural moisturizing factors.
  • 91% of users feel their skin was more hydrated.
  • 86% stated that they had softer skin.
  • 82% agreed that their skin’s texture was improved.
  • 77% stated their skin felt more radiant.
  • An overall skin improvement performance rating was scored by 82% of users.

Cara Dewis, Head of Research and Development at Oat Cosmetics commented on the new research, “This is really strong data – despite the cohort for these studies having oily skin, as determined by a dermatologist, and the fact that AvenaPLex is anhydrous, skin hydration was significantly improved after 28 days. In one participant, the hydration improvement was a staggering 26%.”

Angus Robertson, Head of Sales, further added, “This data adds to what is already a very strong data pack. Despite only being launched in April this year, AvenaPLex has seen global adoption and is an amazingly low cost active, given its skin benefits. If there is another 100% natural, raw material approved by Ecocert in accordance with the COSMOS Standard that contains skin identical ceramides, is non-comedogenic and will significantly improve skin condition, I have yet to find it!
