Incredible reasons to include squalane in your skincare routine

Posted on March 20, 2022August 4, 2021

Hydration is essential to keep your skin happy and healthy, and although a moisturizer’s role is to provide hydration to your skin, it sometimes fails to keep your skin hydrated despite applying layers and layers of the product. This is a common issue, and many women struggle to keep their face hydrated by just using a moisturizer. If you are on the same boat, then you have stumbled upon the right place as we are about to introduce you to a skincare ingredient that has picked up the heat recently and is gaining a lot of attention due to its amazing ability to benefit your skin in multiple ways.

Squalane is the current talk of the down, and apparently, some people can’t seem to get enough of this ingredient. Present in the form of lightweight oil, squalane is derived from plant-based sources, including rice bran, olives, etc. This skincare ingredient possesses some of the best skin benefits, and if you want to learn more about this unsung skincare hero, then make sure to read through the article below, which may also convince you to include it in your skincare routine right away.

 

Prevents water loss

Squalane is especially an excellent ingredient for those who have dry and dehydrated skin. One of the major reasons for dry and dehydrated skin is the compromised skin barrier, and that makes it difficult for your skin to retain moisture, thereby leading to dry skin. Including a squalane-based skincare product in your routine will help add moisture back into your dehydrated skin. Additionally, squalane contains emollient properties that help prevent water loss, thereby keeping your skin supple and hydrated.

 

Ideal for all skin types, including sensitive skin

Our skin produces natural oils, of which, 10 to 12 percent is squalane. But as we age, our skin’s ability to produce natural oil reduces, making the skin appear dry and damaged. One of the best ways to make up for the lost natural moisturizing properties is by including squalane in your skincare routine. It not only helps deliver intense moisture to your skin but also replenishes it. Since squalane is naturally found in our bodies, there are very less chances of developing any allergic reaction after its application, which makes it suitable for sensitive skin.

 

Won’t trigger acne

Squalane oil is extremely lightweight in nature, and that makes it easier for the oil to get absorbed into your skin easily. Additionally, squalane oil doesn’t leave your skin greasy, which is definitely a plus. People with acne-prone and oily skin can include squalane oil in their skincare routine without having any doubts.

 

Combats inflammation

Certain skincare habits often leave your skin barrier compromised, and that further results in inflammation and skin irritation, which triggers issues like rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, acne, etc. In order to put an end to these problems, you first need to repair your skin’s barrier function, and squalane does a wonderful job of repairing and strengthening your skin barrier. This, in turn, will help reduce inflammation. Additionally, squalane oil is pretty calming and nourishing in nature, which not only soothes skin irritation but also helps keep your skin supple and soft.

 

Reduce the appearance of premature signs of aging

Squalane oil is extremely hydrating in nature; it helps deliver an intense level of moisture to dry and damaged skin. The lack of hydration is one of the major causes of the early appearance of signs of aging, and the best way to reduce or prevent the appearance of premature signs of aging is by using squalane oil. It helps lock in moisture in your skin, which in turn, keeps premature signs of aging at bay.
