What the gurus are saying

Oat is the star here, and the glossy slip from squalane is what gets mentioned next. Experts like it for sensitive, rosacea-prone, dry or even oily skin, since it's fragrance free and pairs glycerin, ceramides and shea with the soothing oat. The honest caveat: a couple of verdicts call it good but middle of the road, a moisturizer that does its job without being worth obsessing over.

"This is an anti-inflammatory moisturizer and it's really good for rosacea or dry skin. It's got squalan oil, which is a beautiful ingredient, and then it's got glycerin so your water magnet. It's slightly thicker than the ceramide cream. This one is Dr V approved."

"I think I'll link to it at Beauty Bay, but it's also at Amazon as well. It's just a really nice moisturizer for 11 bucks. They also have some nice vitamin C options and a couple of nice exfoliants worth checking out. This is a brand I have yet to review anything from, but I definitely will. [...] They're fragrance-free, they're affordable, and it's a really nice moisturizer. Dermatologist tested, made in France. No, made in India. Okay, anyway, so there we go, very nice moisturizer at 11 bucks."
✓Yay
"I really like the texture of it. Waking up this morning my face after wearing this overnight felt moisturized and hydrated. It seems like it's going to be a good moisturizer. It has oat in it which is great, it also has shea butter, a very popular ingredient, a variety of amino acids which are good for the moisture barrier, and it has a really nice emulsion in my opinion."

"Oat extract anti-inflammatory soothing fragrance free. [...] It has a nice texture to it. [...] It's more emollient, it's got that kind of glossy slip to it. It has squalane which [...] is an ingredient [...] I have come to love. I just find that it really imparts a glossiness to the texture."

Skincare WE NEED TO DISCUSS | September Mini-Review
"It's not the best moisturizer I've ever used, but I would gladly use it. I don't know that I would repurchase it. It's not amazing, it doesn't blow my mind, it's not like wow this is really dramatically making a difference in the appearance of my skin. But it is good. It's just kind of middle of the road, nothing extreme about it. Not bad, not amazing, but right there where you need it to be, does what it's supposed to do. It's pretty affordable too."
Dermatologist Reviews Minimalist Sunscreen
"I liked it, it's good, it has great ingredients. It's not my favorite moisturizer, it's not my Holy Grail, but it really gets the job done."

"I really like the Minimalist Oat Moisturizer for oily skin which has Ceramides, you have Cica and Ceramide"
Translated from the guru's original language.
✓Yay
"A moisturizer in the morning is a must, especially if you have sensitive skin, even if you feel your skin is a little oily. [...] Moisturizer helps in repairing your skin barrier and also helps in soothing the skin."
