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.

Lovely
This is my second bottle. I also tried the rose oil this time . Really like both. Makes my skin glow in my arms and legs after I put my moisturizer on , I top with this to lock in moisture. Makes a huge difference, soaks in so I’m not oily compared to coconut oil. Rep at Sephora mentioned spraying my perfume in my hand and mixing with the oil to rub on arms and pulse point- definitely a win!

Loving the 100% Squalane Oil!
I absolutely love this! I use this as an in-shower body moisturizer and rub a little into my skin right after my shower. It sinks in beautifully without needing to take time to allow it to absorb as it is instant. My forever body moisturizer!

Great product that leaks
I love this oil that feels wonderful on my skin. However the bottle leaks. There is always an oily rim around the bottom of the bottle no matter how hard I tighten the top.

Squalene
So far rave. My facial skin is so soft and hydrated. I feel like my fine lines and wrinkles are diminished. Have been doing Olay, L’Oréal, Neutrogena, Roc etc... for years, just because. This is the first time I truly believe I see an improvement!

Excellent moisturizer
I love it! I give it a try because I like oil to use it after or before my moisturizer and since I start use it, I saw a change in my skin. Now it's more hydrate, shiny and adsorber it really well I think is because of the quality of the product. The scent is really neutral.

Saving sharks and getting glowy skin
I have seborrheic dermatitis and mild rosacea so it can be pretty hard to incorporate new things into my skincare regimen that don't cause a reaction or acne. Biossance's 100% squalane oil seems to work well with my current regimen after layering it over a hyaluronic acid toner. I'm seeing better hydration and even a glow from my skin that I haven't seen in such a long time. P.S. the limited edition shark design is great!!

Pleasantly surprised!
So the sunscreen was the first Biossance/squalane product I have ever used and I loved it! My dry sensitive skin was really happy. So naturally i had to know more about this miracle ingredient and read all the amazing reviews for this oil and snagged it up while it was on sale. I have to admit the first time I went to apply it on my face I was soooo nervous because I'm breakout prone and haven't had good luck with other face oils in the past. But after about a week or so of using it at night as my last layer of skincare, my face hasn't had any new breakouts and my normally dry thirsty winter skin is hydrated and feels so good!! Definitely a fan of this brand and can't wait to try some more of their products!
