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

**Based on a 5 week clinical study of 35 subjects, ages 18-54, after twice daily use
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.
Squalane Oil For Face: Rub a small amount of pure squalane oil together between hands to warm. Pat gently onto face, neck and décolleté.
Squalane Oil For Body: Massage a few pumps onto skin immediately after showering, paying close attention to areas needing extra hydration like arms, legs, and knees.
Squalane Oil For Hair: Rub a small amount of pure squalane oil between hands and smooth through dry or wet hair to add shine and tame flyaways, split ends and frizz.
TIPS:
Use 100% squalane as a cuticle oil.

i love this stuff so much
this is probably one of my favorite skin care items of all time. all of my biossance products are. the toner is a must also. this oil makes my skin feel like clouds and gives me the perfect glow. i mix it with my night oil from dirty lamb before bed and i wake up with the softest skin. i use it alone in the mornings after my toner, sometimes mixing a bit with my moisturizer. and i also rub it all over my body, legs, back, butt, arms. it's just good for everything. im seriously obsessed with this stuff. if you havent tried this stuff yet, DONT WAIT!

Best body oil ever!
Pros - it moisturizers really well and is never sticky - long lasting - can be used on hair, face & body Cons - None Overall, it’s the best body oil I have ever used before and it moisturizers better than body creams. Would highly recommend this.

What a Difference!
After a bad eczema flareup my face is finally looking & feeling normal again. The breakout went from red scaly patches to smooth pink patches and eventually disappeared completely. My skin is soft and glowing! Thank you for making me feel like myself again. It's magic in a bottle.

Amazing
I'm 22 years old, with hormonal acne (non deep) and dermatillomania, meaning essentially I pick at my skin in a compulsive way. Because of these two factors together I've always had (at minimum) light acne, sometimes worse than others, but never gone.... until SQUALANE. My skin is no longer oily halfway through the day! My acne is gone aside from the rare stress-spot. My skin is brighter and plumper (I didn't even notice it was less-plump before). ***I stopped wearing foundation for the first time consistently since I was maybe 16.*** I'm not an older customer by any means, but this product still worked wonders for me. I also recommend this over The Ordinary squalane oil, as it's way lighter and absorbs faster, it becomes much more effective hence the price difference is worth it. As it fits in my routine- I cleanse (typically with cetaphil gentle cleanser but I just bought the biossance oil cleanser) in the shower, then when I'm immediately out I use this on its own, or in drier days I mix it with the amorepacific light cream. It takes maybe 3 minutes to sink in, and then I follow up with elta MD HG sunscreen. I also use it at night after the same cleanser. Please Biossance, bury me with a bottle of squalane oil :')

Saved my skin
I've been using the 100% squalane oil for a couple of years now. I originally found it when it was still called " the revitalizer" and I got a free sample size when biossance was brand new. I tried it then for a few weeks, and was hooked! It keeps my super sensitive, combination skin really moisturized.

Not Good
This oil is so thin it was running through my fingers before I even put it on my face. The second time I used it I tried to apply it quickly and it dripped on my new pajamas, and are now ruined. It's super greasy too, and doesn't do much other than make my face look oily.

Love it!
I love the squalene oil, it's lightweight and keeps my skin's moisture retained especially when used with my favorite body lotion. I wish I could just get a gallon.

Smooth
I’ve never had a skin care regimen before, I was always told my skin was young and smooth looking. But going through the stresses of life, lack of sleep and age, my skin started to change. I never know what products to get, there’s just too many out there but I knew I wanted some thing as natural and organic as possible. This popped up on my Instagram feed. I’m embarrassed to say that I looked into these products because Chrustina Rocco advertised it. thought she was pretty honest so I checked out the products lol. I’m trying to be honest in this review.:) Sometimes it helps for someone to just tell you what to do. I fell in love with the way the products are made and why and they are a good price. Much better than a lot of other products that I was looking into. And they offer such great promotions as well. Since I’ve tried it out, my skin definitely feels more smooth and clean feeling. And I just like having a skin regimen, with products that I feel I can trust and I don’t have to think about. If you don’t know what to do, I suggest getting one of their travel kits or their gift sets of smaller versions of their products. That’s what I did to start .
