The Aveeno Range – Gentle Products for Sensitive Skin

If we say to you look at these ingredients; oat extract, oatmeal, and oat oil, you might think we were about to give you a recipe for oat for delicious oat biscuits. But we’re not, these ingredients plus the addition of Ceramides are the ingredients contained in the Aveeno range of products for your skin.

Why does Avenoo use these ingredients? They use them because they want to combine science with nature to produce skincare products that soothe, cleanse, and moisturise your skin without containing dyes or harsh soaps.

Oat extract comes naturally from the oat plant and is a liquid that soothes your skin with antioxidants.

Oatmeal flour is produced from grinding the oats and it moisturises your skin while preventing moisture loss.

Oat oil comes from the oat grain. This oil is high in lipids which provide an essential skin barrier.

Finally, Ceramides are part of the structure of the epidermis. Ceramides prevent water loss and provide a skin barrier.

It means when you use an Aveeno product on your skin you know you aren’t flooding your system with chemicals. It’s effective but based on nature and it’s so mild you can even use it on babies.

The Aveeno range has products for:

Body

Aveeno has creams for normal to dry skin which also includes a range for very dry, irritable skin and anyone who has dry itchy skin that’s prone to eczema.

You can also buy a daily wash which you can use instead of soap and a bath soak that can be used in place of soaps and gels. All of the body products help to moisturise and soothe dry skin.

Face

Use Aveeno to moisturise day and night, cleanse, tone and calm the delicate skin on your face. You can use it if you have normal skin, but these products work well on dry sensitive skin too.

Hair

Aveeno also has oat milk blend shampoo designed for daily use for dry or damaged hair. It will not only clean your hair but also soothe your dry itchy scalp. Other shampoos contain rose water and chamomile and apple cider vinegar blend which are all gentle enough to use every day.

If you need a conditioner Aveeno has a moisturising conditioner of rose water and chamomile blends.

Children

The Aveeno children’s range includes moisturising body lotion that soothes and nourishes a child’s sensitive skin. It is free from parabens (chemicals used as preservatives in cosmetics) and dyes.

There’s also shampoo, conditioner and a bubble bath and wash containing ingredients that are gentle and moisturising.

Babies

Babies skin is especially sensitive and it’s important to avoid harsh chemicals. If your baby suffers from eczema or has dry skin, then the ingredients in the Aveeno range provide comfort and relief.
