Maybe I’ve been missing out, but it feels like I just woke up one day and suddenly everything had squalane oil in it.
when applied to the skin, Dr. Stevenson says. That means that it can squeeze into the spaces between skin cells and make your face feel smoother. In doing so, it can also help keep moisture in your face by sealing that outer layer tight without being too heavy or occlusive, Dr. Stevenson explains.
The studies we do have on squalane and squalene are mostly done using cells in the lab or animal models. For instance, in, researchers in the Netherlands found that a lipid and lanolin mixture improved transepidermal water loss over 48 hours in hairless mice. But, obviously, it’s hard to generalize these results to humans, and it’s impossible to say that the squalene on its own was responsible for the results.
One study did involve human participants—specifically, 20 human participants dealing with mild uremic pruritis, a chronic itching condition related to kidney disease. For the, one half the participants applied a gel containing 80 percent water as well as aloe vera extract, vitamin E, and squalane twice a day for two weeks. The other participants received nothing.
“It’s all interesting from a laboratory standpoint,” Dr. Katta says, “but how does it work in the real world?” Right now, we have surprisingly little data to answer that question, unfortunately.Because squalane is a part of sebum and excess sebum can contribute to acne, you probably want to exercise some caution with it if your skin tends to be oily or acne-prone, Dr. Stevenson says. You’re likely making plenty of sebum already and adding more could just cause breakouts.
