Olive Squalane Raw Material

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Less Sheen, More Shine: Used topically, Olive Squalene boosts skin’s water-retention without leaving an oily finish, helping skin look radiant and hydrated.  

Moist Lips and Tips: Olive Squalene Raw Material eases excessive dryness and maintains optimal moisture levels for skin, hair, lips, and cuticles. 

Smooth Touch: In serums or blends, Olive Squalane Raw Material provides a variety of skin benefits, reputed for an ability to enhance elasticity, soften complexion, and reduce the look of wrinkles.

Conditioned With Care: Olive Squalene provides the same hydrating activity to tresses as it does for skin. It offers protection from the elements, mends split ends, and preserves the hair’s natural softness. 

No Scent, No Problem: Light, colorless, and odorless, Olive Squalene is compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients. Blend it with essential oils, fragrance oils, vegetable oils, and organic solvents.

Long-lasting Luster: Olive Squalene has superior chemical stability and is less prone to oxidization, which improves its shelf life for cosmetic applications such as creams and lotions. 

DESCRIPTION

This “liquid gold” is worth investing in. Olive Squalane Raw Material is a luxurious and sophisticated moisturizing agent used extensively in both the pharmaceutical and the cosmetic industries. 

Squalane is easily absorbed by skin, because it is a derivative of the unsaturated terpene hydrocarbon called Squalene, an oily molecule that occurs naturally in the sebum of human skin. With age, natural Squalene production begins to decline, making products with Squalane more valuable as skin begins to lose its moisture, smoothness, and strength. 

Squalene oxidizes quickly, but the hydrogenated and improved version – Squalane – becomes a stable and skin-loving ingredient with a lengthy shelf life. This light, odor-free, and non-staining vegetable-based fluid has earned the nickname “liquid gold,” exhibiting its beneficial properties in various cosmetic applications, such as skin and hair products. 

While it may be obtained from several plant sources, including Sugarcane and Ricebran, Olive Oil is the vegetable source that is most abundant in this protective “green” emollient, which results from the unsaponifiable fractions of Olive Oil. Our Olive Squalene is GMO-free and 100% obtained purely from olives. 

DIRECTIONS & SUGGESTED USAGE

Olive Squalane is compatible with vegetable oils, waxes, organic solvents, and esters as well as other constituents that share its lipophilic quality. It can be incorporated into cosmetic formulations for butters, creams, and lotions at 2-30% during their oil phases.

• Neat Finish on Skin: Olive Squalane can be applied to skin undiluted or incorporated into natural skin care formulations with concentrations ranging from 0.5-100%. A patch test is always recommended before use.
• Back-up Lip Balm: The application of Olive Squalane or lip products enriched with Olive Squalane can be effective to ease dryness or cracking on lips.
• Nails that Prevail: Replenish the fats needed for softer and healthier-looking nails with Olive Squalene or nail care products enriched with Olive Squalene.

Squalane also helps final products remain exceptionally stable against oxidation, loss of moisture, rancidity, and congealing.
