INCI: Squalane
Squalane (Olive Derived) is a naturally derived emollient produced from olive oil unsaponifiables. Highly stable and a plant-derived equivalent to human sebum, this Squalane is perfectly compatible with the skin.
The mild characteristics of Squalane (Olive Derived) make it a versatile addition to numerous cosmetic formulations where it will not interfere with colour or aroma.
Squalane (Olive Derived) has a good slip profile where it spreads easily with a non-greasy and silky skin-feel. Further to this, it can also be used as a pigment dispersion agent or a perfume fixative.
As an emollient, it is a great vegetable alternative to mineral oil and hydrogenated polyisobutylene.
