Frequently asked questions
What is olive squalane?
Olive squalane (INCI: Squalane) is a light, stable emollient obtained by hydrogenating squalene from olives. Being plant-derived, it is a popular alternative to shark-derived squalane and to silicones.
How does olive squalane feel on skin and hair?
It is a clear, odourless, weightless oil that spreads easily and absorbs quickly without a greasy after-feel. That makes it well suited to face serums, light moisturisers and hair serums.
Where does this olive squalane come from?
It is of Spanish origin. Because it is fully hydrogenated it is very stable and resists going rancid, which helps the shelf life of oil blends. It is for cosmetic use only, not for food.
What pack sizes are available?
From 250 ml up to a 100 kg drum, all priced online. For regular volumes, ask us for a bulk quote.
