The aim of the research was an attempt to apply waste raw materials (oat bran and wheat bran) to cosmetic scrubs. On the basis of literature reports and our own research, original formulations were developed for cosmetics containing the additives in question as an abrasive. The developed cosmetics were in an anhydrous form and contained vegetable fats and skin-sensitive surfactants. Only upon use did they come into contact with water and form an emulsion that, after abrading the epidermis, took care the skin. The reference point in the evaluation was a high-quality commercial product. The functional properties of the obtained cosmetic prototypes were evaluated: stability, viscosity, yield point, skin moisturization, and sensory analysis of the developed formulations. Based on the study, it was found that scrubs containing the addition of oat bran had more favourable rheological and sensory properties, and showed a higher degree of skin moisturization two hours after washing the product off the skin, compared to a commercial product.
