- Cosmetics Industry
- Moisturizing and Emollient: Squalane oil is widely used in various skincare products like creams, lotions, and serums. It has excellent moisturizing properties as it can form a thin, breathable film on the skin's surface, preventing water loss and keeping the skin hydrated. Its emollient effect makes the skin feel soft and smooth. For example, in a high - end facial cream, the concentration of squalane oil might be around 5% - 10%. This helps to improve the skin's texture and elasticity, making it look plump and healthy.
- Non - Comedogenic Ingredient: It is known for being non - comedogenic, which means it is less likely to clog pores and cause acne. Therefore, it is suitable for all skin types, including oily and acne - prone skin. In some acne - fighting skincare products, squalane oil is added at a concentration of about 2% - 5% to provide moisture without aggravating breakouts. It can also be used as a natural alternative to synthetic oils in makeup products like foundations and lipsticks, giving a smooth application and a non - greasy finish.
- Antioxidant Protection: Squalane oil has antioxidant properties that help protect the skin from free radical damage caused by environmental factors such as pollution and UV radiation. In some anti - aging serums, it is combined with other antioxidants like vitamin E. The squalane oil content in these serums is usually around 3% - 8%. Together, they work to prevent premature aging, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and maintain the skin's youthful glow.
- Hair Care Industry
- Hair Conditioning: Squalane oil is used in shampoos, conditioners, and hair oils to improve the condition of the hair. It penetrates the hair shaft, providing deep hydration and nourishment. This helps to repair damaged hair, reduce frizz, and increase shine. In a hair conditioner, the concentration of squalane oil is typically around 1% - 3%. It coats the hair strands, making them more manageable and preventing breakage.
- Scalp Health: It can also be beneficial for the scalp. Squalane oil helps to keep the scalp moisturized, preventing dryness and flakiness. In some scalp - treatment products, it is included at a concentration of 3% - 6% to soothe the scalp and promote a healthy environment for hair growth. By maintaining the scalp's natural oil balance, it can also help reduce dandruff and itchiness.
- Pharmaceutical Industry
- Carrier Oil: Squalane oil is often used as a carrier oil in pharmaceutical formulations. It can dissolve and carry active ingredients, improving their absorption and bioavailability. For example, in some topical medications, squalane oil is used to deliver anti - inflammatory or antibacterial agents to the skin. The amount of squalane oil in these formulations depends on the specific drug and its intended use, but it can range from 10% - 50%.
- Emollient in Ointments and Creams: It is added to ointments and creams for its emollient properties. Squalane oil helps to soften the skin and improve the texture of the formulation, making it easier to apply and more comfortable for the patient. In some dermatological creams used to treat dry skin conditions, the squalane oil content may be around 5% - 15%. It forms a protective barrier on the skin, preventing moisture loss and aiding in the healing process
