What the gurus are saying

This lightweight gel soaks in without creating grease, making it especially good for those with oily skin who still need proper moisture. The formula absorbs quickly rather than sitting on top, which prevents the heaviness and extra grease some moisturizers bring. The squalane also leaves behind a subtle glow that works well as a final step before makeup or video.

    "There's similar textural differences with the Biossance and I do love these although they are a little bit more pricey. This right here is the Squalane and Probiotic Gel Moisturizer and as you can see it's this really lightweight very water-based gel. It actually feels gorgeous on the skin and for me being oily it soaks right in."
    ✓Yay
    "This is the lightest out of all of the ones that I'm sharing today. This one doesn't leave your skin tacky or sticky. It does dry down skin. I feel like this doesn't really shine through my makeup either, so if you're wearing this on its own you will have a little glow to your skin but it's not sticky or greasy."
    ✓Yay
    "It has a ceramide complex which helps to deeply moisturize the skin as well as strengthen your skin's barrier, and green tea as well to combat any sensitivity or irritation in the skin. I like this one for [...] when my skin needs a little bit of extra hydration and just a little comfort, I love using this one, it's a really good product. Honestly I like the majority of products from their brand, I think their ingredient philosophy is awesome."

    "I absolutely love this product. They've reformulated it, I've been using it now for maybe over a month now and I still love it. It is different though, it's not exactly the same, but it still is, it's still a great product. The quality is always just off the charts but as far as lightweight moisturizers, this is like a gel, this is like a true gel cream, it's real lightweight, super soothing, refreshing, it is outstanding. The texture is insane."
    The Ultimate Summer Skincare Routine
    "We've always liked the Biossance gel moisturizer. The formula has changed from its original formulation, and with time I don't know if I like it as much or if it's the same or not. It's definitely a different formula right, you can tell the difference. Both are good, I don't know if I like it as much. I kind of go back and forth on that."

    "The Biossance Squalane Probiotic Gel Moisturizer is something I use quite a bit. For me to get this close to empty, we're using this quite a bit. Why do I like this one? Well, it's a lightweight super gel consistency. It's very gel consistency-like. But that squalane that it has in it leaves behind a glow. So this is always my last step in my skin care routine before I shoot video. It leaves me with a glow."

    What the evidence says.

    Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

    Humectants and emollients

    Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
