Key Features of Viablife Squalane

Fermentation-Derived Production: Produced through yeast fermentation, Viablife Squalane provides a non-animal sourcing option for cosmetic manufacturers seeking alternatives to shark-derived materials.

High Purity: With an active purity of at least 98%, it supports the development of cosmetic formulations that require consistent raw material specifications.

Lightweight Emollient Properties: Squalane helps improve skin softness and smoothness while contributing to a comfortable, non-heavy skin feel.

Versatile Cosmetic Applications: Its formulation potential extends across skin care, hair care, and selected color cosmetics, offering flexibility for different product development needs.

Benefits of Squalane in Skin Care

Squalane is valued for its emollient properties and its ability to improve the sensory performance of skin care products. It helps soften the skin, reduce the feeling of dryness, and support moisture retention by limiting moisture loss from the skin surface.

Its lightweight texture makes it suitable for facial moisturizers, lotions, facial oils, and other daily skin care formulations. It can also be combined with humectants and other emollients to develop products that balance hydration, softness, spreadability, and after-feel.

Applications in Hair Care and Makeup

In hair care formulations, Squalane helps lubricate the hair surface, improve smoothness, and enhance the appearance of shine. It can be evaluated in hair oils, leave-in conditioners, and hair serums designed to improve manageability and reduce the rough feel of dry hair.

For makeup products, Squalane can contribute to smooth application and a more comfortable finish. It may be considered for foundations, lip products, and other cosmetic formats where spreading and emollient performance are important. Compatibility and stability should be evaluated according to each formulation's requirements.
