This 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 2 million of these critical apex predators per year.
  • Squalane oil for the face instantly hydrates and locks in essential moisture.
  • Helps other active ingredients penetrate more deeply and work more effectively
  • Promotes microbiome diversity for healthier-looking skin

Our new Jumbo size comes in limited edition packaging, made with 100% post-consumer recycled material (PCR), celebrating our commitment to ocean conservation with 5% of the proceeds going to support Oceana.

This 100% squalane oil is for external use only. Use only as directed. Avoid eye area. We recommend a patch test prior to use if you are particularly sensitive. If irritation occurs, consult a dermatologist.

Squalane oil

All Ingredients:

  • 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.
  • 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 safer and skin-friendlier! 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 clean and free of potentially harmful ingredients, as well as being sustainably sourced.
  • 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.

Good product but bad bottle

The oil is good but the bottle leaks. I had to put the bottle in a bowl and the oil is gone before I had a chance to use. It is also ****. They should replace the bottle and send us a replacement. I thought I was the only one but another customer also complained about the same problem. Thank you.

Fave, but bottle leaks

I am in love with the oil! Super hydrating and long lasting on the skin. However, I think I got a defective bottle/pump because the pump leaks. I often find that there is oil all over the bottom portion of the pump and my bottle in a pool of oil on the counter. I don’t like that it seems to waste a good portion of the product.

So Moisturizing!

I have tried many oils over the years but this oil is amazing. It sinks in quickly but leaves behind tons of moisture.
