Squalane
What It Does
Squalane naturally occurs in the lipids of our skin. Silky and non-greasy, our bio-based Squalane helps restore skin hydration and leaves hair from feeling dry. Use it in a formulation, add a couple drops directly to your favorite lotion, or use it alone for weightless moisture. Squalane is stable to heat, cold and oxidation, and is tested to be non-comedogenic.
How It's Made
Squalane should be made with science, not shark liver oil. Through a process called fermentation, yeast is genetically engineered to produce the building blocks of squalane, farnesene, by being fed non-GMO sugarcane that is located right next to the manufacturing facility. The farnesene is isolated and undergoes further reaction and purification to become squalane.
