FERMENTED OAT EXTRACT

Fermented botanical extract • British grown • Water soluble cosmetic ingredient

Fermented Oat Extract is a water-soluble botanical ingredient made using British-grown oats and a controlled fermentation process.

The oat extract is fermented using Lactobacillus, creating an ingredient with a distinctive fermentation story for modern skincare and cosmetic formulation.

Its liquid, water-soluble format makes it easy to incorporate into a wide range of water-based formulations.

PRODUCT INFORMATION

WHAT IS FERMENTED OAT EXTRACT KNOWN FOR?

Oats have a long history in cosmetic and personal care formulations and are particularly well known for their use in products designed with a gentle, comfort-focused formulation approach.

Fermentation adds another dimension to this familiar botanical. Our oat extract is fermented using Lactobacillus, creating a fermented oat ingredient for formulators interested in combining traditional botanical ingredients with modern fermentation processes.

Fermented oat extracts are particularly interesting for formulations centred around gentle skincare, hydration-focused concepts and barrier-conscious product development.

WHY FERMENT OATS?

Fermentation is a fascinating way of transforming a familiar botanical ingredient.

During fermentation, microorganisms such as Lactobacillus interact with the botanical material, creating a fermented ingredient with a different composition from the original oat extract.

For formulators, this offers an opportunity to explore fermented botanical ingredients rather than using a conventional oat extract alone.

FORMULATION USE

Fermented Oat Extract can be incorporated into a wide range of water-based formulations, including:

• Facial serums
• Essences
• Toners
• Creams

Its water-soluble format makes it suitable for incorporation into the water phase or cool-down phase of formulations.
