The ultimate Moisture
Squalane Oil
Squalane (not to be confused with the unstable version Squalene) is a saturated, stable oil derived from vegetables typical olives.
From age 14 to age 30 the amount of Squalane produced naturally by the skin reduces by more than half. Applying this oil to the skin can dermatiaclly help reduce signs of aging, dry tired skin and helps treat acne by reducing extra oil production by the skin.
“Although squalane is produced naturally by the body, the production of this chemical slows drastically after age thirty, thus contributing to dry skin. Using a moisturizer with squalane may help restore the proper balance of the skin’s oils.”
