Skin Care Tip: The many skin benefits of squalene

submitted by Stephanie, Vancouver BC Canada, Canada

I have recently started applying Squalene oil to my face in the morning and at night, before my regular moisturizer. I could have entered Squalene under any of the categories mentionned above (acne scarring, eye treatment, revitalizing...etc), as squalene is considered by many to be "nature's face lift." Just google that and you'll see. Squalene is naturally found in our bodies, but many of us don't produce enough, and the amt in our bodies diminishes with age. I have found that many expensive lines use Squalene in their products (pay attention to the lists of ingredients when you walk thru Sephora; you'll see!). I have decided that applying it in its pure form is a better option than paying 10x the price for a lower amount, mixed with all sorts of stuff. The oil is found in olives and sharks. Also proven is that sharks don't get cancer. In any case, i'm definitely hooked on squalene.

It has successfully cleared my dermatitis on my forehead (overnight), and the wrinkles under my right eye (from sleeping on that side) have improved dramatically since i started using this.
