It All Started With Sharks

Ever since Biossance began, we’ve been on a mission to save the ocean’s apex predators. This species has long been hunted for its squalene, an oil in their livers used in skincare and makeup products. As a vegan alternative, our scientists pioneered renewable sugarcane-derived squalane. Thanks to this innovation, 2 million of these critical members of the ocean ecosystem are saved every year. Read more about squalane.

That’s how the Biossance brand began—with a biotechnology breakthrough that turned the tide on shark-liver harvesting, creating the mega-moisturizing molecule you’ll find in each and every one of our products today. All of our products are formulated and produced with marine conservation in mind—our SPF 30 sunscreen is powered by reef-safe zinc oxide, and every product comes in packaging that’s recyclable and sustainably made.

To further commit to protecting our oceans, we are honored to kick off a partnership with Oceana, an organization making changes at the global policy scale on issues such as overfishing, plastic pollution, protecting aquatic habitats, and preserving marine animal species. Starting June 8, you can help us help them by rounding up your order on Biossance.com to donate to this important initiative. Shop to donate.

Introducing the Clean Academy Impact Award As part of our commitment to oceanic conservation, we’re kicking off a new program to recognize and reward all those fighting to rehabilitate our marine ecosystem. We’ll be awarding two $10,000 grants to budding scientists, anti-plastic crusaders, and whale warriors to help fund their conservation passion project. Winners will even have a chance to be mentored by the Biossance team. Enter to win.

As a lifestyle writer and journalist, I love sharing my passion for ocean conservation and obsession with clean beauty. I’ve tried almost every trend and ingredient, and Biossance’s science-backed formulas are the only ones that consistently calm my reactive skin and make it smoother, clearer, and healthier. I’m so excited to be on this journey of skincare innovation with Biossance, and to share it with you!
