A light-as-water moisturizer that feels like a burst of refreshing hydration on the face. Formulated with less than 9 ingredients, including calming Oat Extract, it balances out your super serums and targeted treatments with some oh so simple hydration. Dive in.

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.

K003-01-0001-EU

Pair with Great Barrier Relief Serum
When you’re craving: Extra moisture
Why it works: Water-based cream to hydrate, oil-based serum to seal it in.
How to use: Can be mixed together or applied in any order.
Extra tip: Apply moisturizer liberally but apply serum in layers to prevent greasiness.

Exhibits A Through You

Sophia

Skin Concern: acne, dryness, sensitivity

Age: 18-24

“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.”

Brianna

Skin Concern: acne, dark spots, dryness

Age: 25-34

“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.”

    Love it!

    This moisturizer makes my skin feel so soft and hydrated!! I always had issues with moisturizers making it feel like im dragging my skin when applying, but this does not do that at all. My redness calms down and my skin feels soft in the morning after using at night.

    Not for me

    The first week using this product, my skin felt very smooth after using. After that, I started to notice dry patches on my forehead and I began to break out on my chin. I gave it a shot but it just wasn’t compatible for my skin. I’ve got combination acne prone skin with rosacea

    amazing

    I absolutely love this cream! It’s so hydrating yet lightweight suited for all skin types. It’s an absolute holy grail, I wish it was cheaper though.

    Lovely moisturizer

    I use this only at night in summer because it’s a little thick for daytime, but it’s so simple and effective. Great for day and night rest of the year! Love that it doesn’t have any kind of scent. Lovely texture. This is my second time ordering it and I was desperate to get a new one when my old one ran out! 10/10

    wanted to love it but...

    hoped I would love this because the ingredients are so simple but it wasn't as hydrating as I thought so I had to use a lot of it and it ended up giving me little white heads / texture. Not for my skin but probably great for other people!
