Why This Ingredient Matters
Healthy-looking skin needs both water and lipids. Squalane helps replenish the skin’s lipid environment, reducing the feeling of dryness while supporting softness, suppleness, and comfort.
Why Formulation Matters
Hydration is about more than adding water. Pairing Squalane with humectants such as Hyaluronic Acid helps attract moisture while replenishing lipids to create more complete and lasting hydration support.
