Colloidal oatmeal works as an emollient by adding moisture to the skin. It keeps the skin soft and prevents it from feeling itchy. It can also give relief to irritated skin as it has anti-inflammatory properties that prevent redness and inflammation.
Colloidal oatmeal is an ingredient that creates a barrier over your skin’s topmost layer. This prevents your skin from losing its natural water and moisture and makes your skin smooth and healthy.
It contains flavonoids, which help to absorb damaging UVA rays that contribute to premature skin aging. Flavonoids can even protect your skin from harsh pollutants and chemicals.
