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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is squalane and how is it different from squalene?
Squalane is the hydrogenated, stabilized form of squalene. Unlike squalene, squalane is fully saturated, making it resistant to oxidation and much more stable for use in cosmetic and skincare formulations. It has a longer shelf life and is less prone to going rancid.
Is this squalane suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?
Yes. Squalane closely mimics the skin's natural sebum and is non-comedogenic, meaning it will not clog pores. It is lightweight, hypoallergenic, and well-tolerated by all skin types including sensitive, acne-prone, and post-procedure skin.
What is the recommended usage level of squalane in formulations?
Squalane can typically be used at concentrations ranging from 1% to 100% depending on the application. For serums and lightweight moisturizers, 2–10% is common. For facial oils or specialized repair products, higher concentrations may be used as desired.
Can squalane be combined with other active ingredients?
Yes. Squalane is highly compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients including retinol, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and peptides. Its stable molecular structure makes it an excellent carrier and base for complex formulations.
What is the shelf life and how should squalane be stored?
Squalane has a shelf life of approximately 2 years when stored properly. It should be kept in a sealed container, away from direct sunlight, in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment to maintain its purity and efficacy.
