What is squalane?
Squalane is produced by hydrogenation of squalene and can be used as an oily raw material for basic cosmetics such as balsam and nutritional emulsion.
Squalene is obtained from the blue shark (Centrophorus) or other deep-sea shark fish liver oil and started as a by-product of the production of vitamin A from shark liver oil. In recent years, it has been found that olive oil unsaponifiable is rich in squalene, and it is used as a raw material to produce squalane.
