"Biossance had a 100% squalane face oil, whenever I use that, my skin was not happy the next day. My pores were clogged, all that stuff. So, for some reason, for me, even though I don't have very acne-prone skin, that squalane is very high up for me specifically. [...] But, if I have use a product something like this where it's got a little bit of squalane in it, but not 100% squalane, it's fine."

"I use this one on my arms lately because they got very dry. I did a little bit of the retinol stuff and I think my arms got a little dry so I was using this as moisturizer. I can't use this on my face. My face does not tolerate 100% Squalane Oil. It will break out the second I put it on. No idea why nothing else does that, but 100% Squalane Oil will do that to me every time."

Beard Basics — Grooming, Skin Care, and Shaving Secrets

"As my beard gets a little bit longer I like to use squalane oil. Squalane is something our skin produces as part of the moisture barrier, and it's a similar molecule that's good for our moisture barrier. You can get one hundred percent pure squalane oil, and I love the company Biossance, no affiliation with them, but they get theirs from sugar cane whereas other companies used to get it from sharks."

"I use the 100% squalane to shave my legs with, shave under my arms with. I'm happy for the kids to use it. Biossance created hempsqualane, which is a squalane molecule which they derive from corn and then they basically feed the corn to the bacteria, the bacteria produce the squalane and then it's half the size so it goes into the skin more, hydrating, amazing."
