Core Efficacy
🧬
1. Mimics Human Sebum & Excellent Compatibility
Squalane is a lipid highly similar to human sebum. It penetrates and absorbs quickly without causing allergies or clogging pores, making it suitable for all skin types.
💧
2. High-Efficiency Moisture Locking
It forms a lightweight, breathable protective film on the skin surface to reduce water evaporation. This provides long-lasting hydration and improves dryness, peeling, and roughness.
🛡️
3. Skin Barrier Repair
It enhances the resistance of the stratum corneum and soothes sensitive, red, and fragile skin. It is ideal for repair during seasonal changes or after medical aesthetic procedures.
✨
4. Silky Texture, Non-Greasy
The texture is light, easy to spread, and absorbs quickly without a heavy, oily film. It improves the smoothness and spreadability of skincare products.
🌿
5. Antioxidant & Stabilizing
It inhibits free radicals and delays skin aging, helping to improve dullness and leave the skin soft and radiant.

Squalane can be used at various concentrations depending on the product type, typically ranging from 1% to 100% in leave-on formulations. It can be incorporated into serums, creams, oils, and makeup products based on the desired texture and efficacy.
