Naturally active ingredients are derived from nature and are processed in such a way that the beneficial skincare properties are preserved.

The unique story of the AVEENO™ brand began back in 1945. In conjunction with the Mayo Clinic in America, the Musher brothers’ experimentation with raw cereals led to the discovery of a natural bath additive containing 100% colloidal oatmeal, known for its natural ability to hold in moisture and relieve dry, irritated skin. We are always on the hunt for new ingredients and products that better serve you and your family.

• Soothes: oatmeal has a soothing action on sensitive, irritable skin

• Cleanses: the oat particles adhere to dirt and dead skin cells allowing them to be washed away

• Moisturises: restores moisture to dehydrated skin

• Buffers: helps return skin to normal pH levels

• Protects: creates a protective film on the surface of the skin

Several factors can lead to skin dehydration, which means that the water content of the top layer of the skin is reduced, causing the skin cells to shrink. This shrinkage creates many of the familiar symptoms of dry skin, including itching, scaling, loss of elasticity and tightness. Scratching further damages the skin, leaving it vulnerable to infection. Some causes of dry skin include:

• Overheated rooms

• Low humidity

• Air conditioners

• Excessive sun

• Too much soap and water, which washes away natural oils

• Cleansing in hot water

The decreasing humidity and colder temperatures of winter can make your skin dryer than usual.
