Squalane: A Great Oil for Skin Care
Squalane is a widely used oil ingredient in skincare, attracting attention for its structural similarity to human sebum, excellent stability, and skin-friendly properties. Early squalane was mostly produced by hydrogenating squalene extracted from the livers of deep-sea sharks. However, due to overfishing of sharks, its use is now banned in most countries. Currently, the mainstream squalane is hydrogenated from squalene extracted from plants like olive oil and sugarcane, offering both environmental friendliness and skin-friendliness. Squalane is also produced through chemical synthesis or biofermentation techniques, offering high stability and low cost, making it a common source for commercially available products.
Squalane's molecular structure is nearly identical to squalene, found in human sebum. This makes it highly compatible with skin, allowing it to quickly penetrate the skin and form a protective barrier. It moisturizes, nourishes, repairs the skin barrier, and improves skin sensitivity, making it suitable for all skin types:
Bionic structure: The closest component to human sebum
High permeability: Small molecular weight for rapid absorption
Non-pore-clogging: Non-acnegenic (ideal for oily and acne-prone skin)
Stable antioxidant: Resists oxidation and deterioration

Squalane's core benefits
Hydrating and hydrating
Forming a breathable protective barrier on the skin's surface, effectively preventing moisture loss and keeping skin soft and hydrated for a long time.
Barrier repair
Replenishes the skin's natural sebum, strengthens the skin barrier, and enhances resistance to external irritants. It's particularly suitable for sensitive and dry skin.
Antioxidant and anti-aging properties
Inhibits skin lipid peroxidation, delays skin aging, and promotes basal cell proliferation, helping to improve wrinkles, sagging, and melasma.
Nourishing Penetration
With excellent penetration, squalane quickly penetrates the skin, replenishing cellular lipids and nourishing the skin. After use, skin appears softer, more hydrated, and more elastic.
Unique Advantages:
Good Skin Compatibility
As the lipid closest to human sebum, squalane has a strong affinity with the skin and blends naturally with the sebum barrier, forming a natural protective barrier.
Lightweight Texture
With its small molecular structure and rapid absorption, it does not leave a thick, oily film on the skin's surface. It is suitable for all skin types and keeps the skin breathable and hydrated.
Promotes Renewal
It helps open skin pores, promotes microcirculation and cell metabolism, and helps repair damaged cells, maintaining healthy skin.
Squalane has moderate moisturizing properties. However, its ability to retain moisture on its own is limited in extremely dry and cold environments. It is recommended to use it in combination with other moisturizing products for optimal skincare results. Squalane is derived from the hydrogenation product of squalene in the liver of deep-sea sharks. It has high chemical stability and is an excellent natural skin care ingredient that can effectively maintain the balance between skin and sebum, making it an ideal choice for repairing and nourishing the skin.
Major Applications of Squalane
Cosmetics (Main)
Squalane is a key oily ingredient in premium cosmetics.
High-Quality Base: Widely used in creams, lotions, eyeliners, eyeshadows, conditioners, and premium soaps, it provides moisturizing and emollient effects.
Skin-Friendly: As the lipid closest to human sebum, it naturally blends with the skin's sebum membrane, forming a breathable, natural protective barrier that strengthens epidermal repair and maintains water-oil balance.
Enhanced Absorption and Repair: It accelerates the penetration of other active ingredients into the skin, while promoting the proliferation and metabolism of basal cells and helping to repair damaged cells.
Anti-Aging and Brightening: By inhibiting lipid peroxidation in the skin, it effectively delays skin aging, improving wrinkles and fading melasma.
Improves Microcirculation: It helps open skin pores, promotes blood microcirculation, and enhances cellular metabolism.
Medical Uses
Medical Preparations: Due to its stable and skin-friendly properties, it is often used as a base for medical ointments.
Health Benefits: Its precursor, squalene, is found in the human body and participates in cholesterol synthesis and various biochemical reactions. It has the potential to promote metabolism, enhance the body's defenses and stress response, and improve endurance.
