Why is Squalane Good for Your Skin
In simpler terms, Squalene is 10 to 12% of your skin's oil produced by sebaceous glands. As we age, its production depletes. Squalene is usually sourced from plants but sometimes it can be derived from an animal, so it's best to check with the manufacturer for its source before purchasing. The reason why I like Squalene is that how it caters to skin issues of different skin types. It's an ideal choice for sensitive skin since it adjusts itself to the skin's natural oils. Even more, it alleviates irritation and temporary redness, calming the skin. Because of the way Squalene balances skin oils, it tricks oily skin into producing less sebum. For dry skin types, it helps retain its moisture content to maintains its suppleness. While Squalene is excellent for all skin types, and you can rarely go wrong with it, it's best to try it out yourself to see how it reacts to your skin.
