INCI: Perhydrosqualene, Olive Squalane, Squalane (Olive)
Squalane is a clear, odourless and absolutely irritant-free lipid which is a crucial part of the skin´s natural hydro lipid film. In the past, squalane was gained from shark liver (squalus, latin for shark), however, nowadays it is deprived from olives. Squalane provides the skin with moisture and prevents other lipids (natural skin fats) from oxidating. Thus, it often acts as an antioxidative free radical scavenger.
What is extraoridinary about squalane compared to other oils, is its easy distribution on the skin. It provides moisture without leaving behind an unpleasant greasy film and mostly generates an especially silky-soft skin sensation. As squalane is a natural skin element, it can lead to a better absorbtion of creams by the skin and consequently has a positive effect on the absorbtion of any following skin care products. Therefore, squalane products are a perfectly suitable make-up-basis:
Squalane is admitted for certified natural cosmetics.
