Abstract
A process to prepare oat oil compositions with beneficial dermatological properties is disclosed. Formulations incorporating the oat oil compositions have antioxidant and other dermatologically beneficial properties. The compositions, either alone or in cosmetic formulations including lipid emulsions, inhibit ultraviolet irradiation-induced lipid peroxidation. The methods have applications in the cosmetic industry for inhibiting ultraviolet irradiation-induced skin damage and other beneficial dermatological properties. The formulations of the invention also are potent antioxidants.
