Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Skin Protecting
Helps rebuild and strengthen your skin barrier — the invisible shield that keeps moisture in and irritants out. Essential after over-exfoliating or harsh weather.
Nourishes & Protects
Traditional Use
Wheat bran has been used in traditional skincare across cultures for centuries as a gentle exfoliant and skin-conditioning agent. In Ayurvedic medicine, wheat preparations were applied topically to soothe irritated skin and improve complexion.
