It has proven collagen stimulating benefits along with the ability to defend against oxidative damage. Squalane, is naturally present in the skin in the form of a fat which is naturally produced by oil glands to hydrate and maintain the skin barrier. Over time, Squalane diminishes, leading to dehydration, skin sagging and premature ageing. Olive-oil derived Squalane mimics the fat which occurs naturally in the skin barrier (called squalene), allowing it to penetrate the skin deeply and effectively and provide immediate and long-lasting hydration. This ultra-hydrating action provides Squalane with an ability to visibly increase the luminosity and radiance of the skin, lessening the appearance of fine lines. It assists in repairing the skin barrier which in turn protects the skin from oxidative damage. Squalane has been shown to calm and soothe red and irritated skin.
