In a 30-person study of older adults with chronic itching and dry skin, daily use of this oat extract moisturizer significantly reduced itching compared to no treatment—over half reported improvement, and 30% said the itching disappeared entirely. Results showed up immediately after the first application and improved skin hydration and dryness when measured objectively.

Researchers gave 30 people aged 60+ either the oat extract moisturizer or nothing for 2 weeks, then switched them to the other group. They measured itching using standard scales and checked skin hydration and dryness with specialized tools.
