Squalane is the powerhouse ingredient at the heart of every Biossance formula. It's bioidentical to the moisture found in human skin, making it weightless and instantly absorbed and perfect for use all over the body. Our squalane is derived from sustainable sugarcane, a purer, vegan, more ethical, and more effective version than other forms of squalane. And since it replaces the need for similar moisture taken from the livers of sharks, it saves millions of these critical apex predators per year.
- Squalane oil for the face instantly hydrates and locks in essential moisture.
- Helps boost the absorption of other active ingredients and enables them to work more effectively.
- Promotes microbiome diversity for healthier-looking skin.
- Size: 100mL/3.4oz

JUST ONE INGREDIENT:
Squalane Oil: Weightless, hydrating and high-performing oil, sustainably sourced from sugarcane. Replenishes lost-moisture, helps to maintain hydration and leave the skin exceptionally soft.
1. WHERE DOES YOUR 100% SQUALANE COME FROM? WHY SUGARCANE AND NOT OLIVES?
Traditionally Squalane was harvested from shark liver, though our scientists spent years developing pure Squalane from 100% plant-based, renewable sugarcane. The quality of Squalane produced from olives depends on unreliable factors like weather and crop growth. The quality and purity of our sugarcane Squalane is stable and cost effective.
2. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SQUALANE AND SQUALENE?
The human body produces SqualEne. Squalene is part of our skin's own natural moisture, but the amount made and retained in your skin decreases over time. Our Squalane is a hydrogenated version of Squalene which makes it more suitable for sensitive skin. Additionally, our sugarcane-derived Squalane is a sustainable alternative to the historical production method of squalene from shark liver. Our background in biotechnology allows us to create products that are effective and sustainably sourced wherever possible.
3. WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 100% SQUALANE OIL AND SQUALANE + VITAMIN C ROSE OIL? DO I NEED BOTH?
While they both contain super hydrating Squalane, our Vitamin C Rose Oil also contains...(you guessed it!) Vitamin C and rose essential oil, making it suitable for facial use. Our 100% Squalane Oil can be used head-to-toe as an all-over body, face and hair hydrator.
How To Use: Apply to face, body and hair as needed. Great after the shower and post-sun exposure. Safe for all ages.
For face, rub a small amount together between hands to warm. Pat gently onto face, neck and décolleté. For body, massage a few pumps onto skin immediately after showering. For hair, rub a small amount between hands and smooth through dry or wet hair to add shine and tame flyaways, split ends and frizz.
When To Use: Day and night, head-to-toe.
Layering Tip: Start with your cleanser, next, apply eye treatment, follow with a serum and finally your moisturizer. Apply 100% Squalane Oil last to lock in hydration.

Year round solution
Fantastic moisturizer oil, my husband and I use this year round, it has helped even texture and skin tone! This is the only moisturizer to help with with rough patches as well, pretty much overnight =)

Great oil
You can literally feel a difference from night to morning. Super moisturizing but can definitely be used as a day moisturizer as well because even though it's an oil the quality is so good that it sinks into your skin leaving behind a glow not an oily mess.

Love this oil
I use this oil for a mixer in my body lotion, facial moisturizer, and my foundation (I have very dry skin) I like to wear a long wearing matte foundation then add a few drops of this oil to it, it’s a game changer for my makeup! I also use a small amount on my dog’s hair, it works so good on him.

Absolutely the best!
I first bought a bottle of the squalane oil from Sephora in March 2019, and a couple of months later, bought a 2nd bottle before even running low on the first. This oil is so amazing. Every winter, the skin on my torso and shins become unbearably dry, flaky, and will break out in hives. Nothing has ever helped sooth and calm it down...until I came across Biossance's squalane oil. Heading into New England winter at the end of 2019 now, I'm so glad I have this sidekick. I use it after showering, and I haven't experienced my dreadful winter skin yet! I use it all over my body, and have even used it on my face and ends of my hair. I havent had any issues with breakouts on my face...and I have extremely reactive skin. This seriously have been a life saver.

Smooths my keratosis pilaris and my face has never been so hydrated
I started with a sample because I've never used oils in my skincare before (I have very dry skin). After just one application, my keratosis pilaris on my arms was markedly smoother and didn't get dry and itchy like it usually does, especially in the fall/winter. Used on my face after the squalane + omega repair cream, my face is positively glowing and so soft and hydrated. My husband touched my face and arms on my second day of using this and exclaimed out loud about how soft my skin is - and he never notices this kind of stuff! Needless to say, it is now my go-to moisturizer for body and face. I'm so glad I found biossance!

This is the best moisturizer throughout all seasons of my skin! I’m happy I was introduced to biossance years ago! I’m extremely happy that it’s readily available near me!

obSESSED
I have incredibly sensitive skin/rosacea and to finally have a facial oil that works without making me break out or have an allergic reaction is a game changer. It soaks in so nicely and gives your skin that GLOW you’ve always wanted. A little bit goes a long way also. I’ve had the 100ml bottle for a year now and still have plenty left. Definitely a bargain price for what you’re getting too. For sure want to try out their other products but this is an amazing place for anyone to start who is interested in a clean beauty brand!!!
