Squalane Oil is a natural additive for use in a wide range of cosmetics, particularly those meant for skin care and sometimes even hair.

A naturally occurring compound found in our own skin as well as plants and animals like olives and rice bran, squalene is our body’s system for moisturizing our own skin, though as we get older, we tend to produce less and less. After a process called hydrogenation, squalene is converted into a form that is stable enough to be added into skincare products: squalane (what a difference one letter makes).

Squalane’s main attribute lies in hydrating. The more hydrated your skin, the better its texture and appearance, leaving your skin looking vibrant and healthy. The antioxidant properties of squalane may help repair damaged skin. When used to moisturize hair, squalane can result in shinier hair and may even prevent breakage.

For skin creams, lotions or whatever else you can think up, Squalane Oil is a great way to offer your customers products for soft, smooth and healthier skin and hair.
