Butyrospermum Parkii Butter is a plant lipid from the fruit of the Shea Tree. It is an effective skin hydrator and emollient.

Learn more about Cetearyl AlcoholSqualane is an emollient that helps the skin hold onto moisture. It's an oily liquid that occurs naturally in certain types of fish and plant oils.
Because squalane boosts hydration in the skin, it also comes with plenty of benefits: it is an antioxidant and can help fight free radicals and skin damage. Squalane is also found to have a detoxifying effect when applied.
Squalane comes from squalene, which occurs naturally within the sebum of our skin. It is one of the oils our skin produces to keep itself hydrated. Squalane is the hydrogenated version of squalene and has a longer shelf life.
Research shows that squalane is non-irritating (even at 100% concentration).
In general, it's a fantastic ingredient. It does a great job at hydrating the skin, and it's suitable for those with sensitive skin.
The source of squalane may impact malassezia / fungal acne. This is because olive oil derived squalane can contain impurities such as fatty acids and plant waxes. Sugarcane derived squalane is recommended for anyone with malassezia concerns.
Is squalane vegan?
This depends on the source. Squalane can be derived from both plants and animals. Most squalane used in skincare comes from plants.
Please note: the source of squalane is only known if disclosed by the brand. We recommend reaching out to the brand if you have any questions about their squalane.

Pairs really well with Tretenoin
If you are looking for something occlusive this is it, however I would note that it is not very spreadable. Interesting pink color. Personally, I prefer the moisturizing rich cream, but this may be just the thing you need if, as the product is marketed, you need barrier repair. Would not recommend so much for more of a typical moisturizer. The one thing I will note is that it is occlusive without Show more

100% one of my HGs, and I'm SUPER surprised by it.
My focus for the past 6-8 weeks has been skin barrier support. I needed a total package PM moisturizer that (1) wouldn't break me out, (2) wouldn't leave me greasy/sticky, (3) wouldn't cause any burning sensations, and (4) didn't include random exfoliants that would irritate me further.
