Origin

Hydrolyzed Oat Protein comes from oats (Avena sativa) that are loaded with various good-for-the-skin nutrients. The oats are first ground into a fine powder and the protein is extracted from it using a solvent such as water. This oat protein is then subjected to the hydrolysis process to break it down into smaller peptides and amino acids. The resulting Hydrolyzed Oat Protein is filtered and purified to make it suitable for use in cosmetics.
