Olive Squalene Oil
Olea europaea
Nature’s Moisture Magnet for Radiant, Resilient Skin
Source & Extraction
Derived from olive oil through a meticulous, solvent-free process, olive squalene is a plant-based alternative to shark-derived squalene. This lightweight lipid is a natural component of human sebum, making it exceptionally compatible with all skin types.
Key Benefits
- Deep Hydration: Mimics skin’s natural oils, reinforcing the moisture barrier without clogging pores (comedogenic rating 0/5).
- Antioxidant Shield: Neutralizes free radicals from pollution/UV exposure, reducing oxidative stress and premature aging.
- Skin Repair: Enhances elasticity, softens fine lines, and calms irritation (ideal for eczema, rosacea, or sensitive skin).
- Versatile Texture: Absorbs instantly, leaving a silky, non-greasy finish—perfect under makeup or layered with serums.
How to Use
- Facial Serum: 2–3 drops morning/night for a dewy glow.
- Mixer: Blend with vitamin C or retinol to boost absorption and reduce irritation.
- Body Oil: Apply to damp skin post-shower for all-over hydration.
- Hair Tamer: Smooth a drop onto ends to combat frizz.
Safety & Storage
- Stability: Squalene oxidizes faster than squalane (its hydrogenated cousin). Store in a cool, dark place; use within 6–9 months.
- Patch Test: Rare allergies possible (olive-derived).
- Pro Tip: For extended shelf life, try our Olive Squalane—a stabilized, oxidation-resistant alternative.
