A Break for Overloaded, Oversensitized, Over It Skin
Between active acids, potent patches, and concentrated creams, your skin is working overtime. Until one day, it happens: burnout. You feel super sensitive, you break out, and you can’t even touch your skin without wincing. What now? The answer’s simple—Oat So Simple. It was created to be the no-fuss, just-right moisturizer that perfectly complements our supercharged routines.
The no-frills formula gives your skin the gentle calming it wants and the essential hydration it needs to go from “so over this” to “glad that’s over.” Whew!
PETA-certified vegan and cruelty-free.
Oats: Soothes irritation and rebalances stressed skin. Trehalose: Helps bind water to skin to retain moisture. Squalane: Conditioning and moisturizing agent that locks in moisture.
The color and texture of Oat So Simple Water Cream may naturally vary slightly from batch to batch. No worries! This is a normal occurrence when using naturally-derived ingredients and does not impact the efficacy of the formula.

“I've been using the Oat So Simple Water Cream for about a year now, ever since I found it in a YouTube review that was for people with acne prone skin. It's really refreshing in the morning and really calming and soothing at night. I wake up and my skin is definitely less irritated and my acne has not flared up.”

Skin Concern: acne, dark spots, dryness

“I started using Oat So Simple Water Cream because my skin got completely compromised when I started using way too many acids... Between this moisturizer and the Great Barrier Relief, they completely reset my skin... Oat So Simple Water Cream is just the go-to whenever I need to reset and have my skin looking its best.”
Kendra
Skin Concern: acne, sensitivity
Age: 18-24
“I have been using the Oat So Simple Water Cream for about two to three years, ever since a junior in college. With all the stress, lack of sleep, and forgetting my skincare routine, all the moisturizers I would use wouldn't really work. My cousin told me about KraveBeauty and how their Oat So Simple Water Cream has very few ingredients and is very lightweight.”
Ally
Skin Concern: dullness, pores
Age: 18-24
“I really love the Oat So Simple Water Cream because it's universal and packed with emollients and simple ingredients. I would definitely recommend this to all of my friends because it fits all skin types. Plus, it just bursts onto your skin and it doesn't even feel like you're using a really heavy moisturizer in order for it to do the job.”

I really wanted to like this, but using this makes my skin tight and uncomfortable. I have oily, but somewhat dehydrated skin, which may be incompatible. I love everything else from KB I've tried tho!

- SNSkincare N.Verified ReviewerRated 4 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoThe Only Moisturizer I Can Use Around My Eyes
I have sensitive, combination, acne prone skin with some ingredient sensitivities and occasional seb derm flare ups. Finding good quality, gentle, non-irritating, non-comedogenic, FA-safe and limited-ingredient products is essential to my skincare routine. My eye area is especially prone to inflammation and irritation and I'm able to use this product around my eyes with no issue. It doesn't keep my skin moisturized for as long as some other creams I've used (probably because it isn't as heavy and occlusive), and is. missing one or two ingredients that would make it an all in one HG for me like ceramides, but the limited ingredient list and light weight is probably why I am able to use the product around sensitive areas without issue unlike those other creams I mentioned, so I'm happy with the formulation as-is so far. Another review I read off-site mentioned that it's a great "base" moisturizer to add other products to and customize it to your specific needs, and I agree. Currently I'm starting a prescription retinoid and needing a lot more moisture, so I'm using this exclusively as an eye cream, and since I need some more occlusion, I apply a very thin layer of petrolatum on top to seal it in. I could also see this product working well for someone with an oilier skin type regardless of sensitivities, or someone living in a humid climate looking for a more lightweight moisturizer.
- OMOlivia M.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoPerfect Moisturizer for Summer
I am a sweaty Betty and had a hard time finding a moisturizer that doesn't melt off my face in the summer. That is until I found this one! It feels so lightweight on the skin and doesn't leave me feeling like I have a layer of cream on my skin. The oat is also calming for my very sensitive skin. Not quite heavy enough for the winter months (Chicago winters are brutal), but perfect for the warmer months.
- NVNanette V.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoGood
My every day moisturizer. Simple and gentle. A little goes a long way
- GgeorgiaRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoBest moisturizer
This literally saved my skin I had to write a review. I used Oat so Simple the first time 2 years ago, and I absolutely loved it. I get easily bored though, so I tried other products. That’s when my skin went downhill, through blemishes and texture I couldn’t pinpoint from where. I went back to Oat so Simple recently, and my skin went from very red and angry to so much better almost instantly.
I can’t thank Liah Yoo enough for this absolute masterpiece. I don’t even know how I would ever get this skin without Oat so Simple.
