Squalane - Natural Source from Olive
BCL-SQLANE-30ML
Olive Squalane is a luxurious, 100% olive-derived emollient prized for its exceptionally light, silky feel and versatility in personal care formulations. With a natural affinity for the skin, it helps soften and condition while supporting moisture retention, leaving skin feeling smooth and supple without a heavy or greasy after-feel. Its excellent spreadability makes it especially popular in facial oils, serums, creams and lotions where an elegant skin feel is desired.
Highly stable and easy to formulate with, Olive Squalane is equally at home in skin care, body care, lip care and hair care creations. Use it to add lightweight emollience to a formulation, improve the feel and spreadability of richer oils and butters, or feature it as the star ingredient in a simple facial or body oil. Its combination of silky texture, versatility and olive-derived origin makes it a beautiful addition to both everyday and premium formulations.
Olive Squalane is an easy-to-use emollient that can be incorporated into both anhydrous products and emulsions. Its light, silky feel makes it especially well suited to facial care, where it can help add emollience without leaving the skin feeling overly heavy or greasy. It can also be used in body care, lip products and hair care formulations.
In creams and lotions, add Olive Squalane to the oil phase. For anhydrous formulations such as facial oils, body oils, balms and oil serums, simply blend with the other oils and oil-soluble ingredients. Olive Squalane can also be used on its own as a lightweight facial or body oil.
