The herbal active ingredient olive squalene has been touted as the antioxidant of the future. This is why you’ve seen influencers swear by high-quality olive oil as a serum because it has *some* of the same ingredients found in olive squalene. We’re here to tell you to ditch the olive oil and swap it for Rolls Royce serums, Olive Skin Serum. Here’s what you need to know about it.
Natural Ingredient
We are all born with squalene, in fact, newborns have the highest squalene content in their skin. Explains their squishy, perfect skin, right? The glands in your skin contain about 12% squalene which protects and keeps moisture in and bacteria out.
Did you know that the Squalene molecule is a structurally unique natural triterpene compound that is one of the main components (about 13%) of skin surface lipids and is a vital element in skin protection?
Unfortunately, from the age of 25, squalene levels in our skin begin to drop, which means more dryness, dehydration and aging. Without squalene, your skin is progressively more sensitive to environmental stressors. A way to keep your skin healthy? Renew Squalene!
Skin biocompatibility
Olive Squalene mimics our skin’s natural hydration process. Because it’s biocompatible, it’s like the chameleon of serums. It works to minimize fine lines, hydrate, protect and keep sensitive skin firm. It sounds very scientific, but that’s how nature works, with you not against you.
Daily application of Squalene will help maintain skin health without the greasiness so often seen with serums. That’s because it’s, you guessed it, biocompatible with our skin!
Many serums are heavy on vitamin E without olive squalene. As you can see, Olive Squalene is much more compatible with our skin.
What does Squalene do?
Now that you understand the science behind this powerful ingredient, we’re going to go into detail and tell you exactly what it does.
Hydrate
We mentioned hydration but here’s how squalene works differently. Instead of suffocating your cells, it absorbs quickly into your skin. Being a natural product, you don’t clog your pores with nasty ingredients. In fact, 75% of testers said their skin felt smoother immediately after applying olive squalene. A single application of Olive Squalene shows immediate moisturizing action +30% in 5 minutes?
Rejuvenation
In addition to hydration, olive squalene delivers oxygen deep into your skin, which promotes rejuvenation. When tested, 100% (yes, 100%) said they had lighter and brighter skin after the serum!
Antiaging
Okay, we’re getting into the science side of things, but this is important, so bear with us. The molecular structure of olive squalene is very different from other oils such as coconut, sunflower, sweet almond and even plain olive oil. It is an “active” oil which means it works immediately. Neutralizes free radicals that contribute to premature aging.
We’re excited to report that 88% of testers saw a reduction in wrinkle length while 100% (yes, another 100%!) said they saw a reduction in wrinkle depth.
UV protection
Exposure to UV light from sunlight is responsible for 90% of the symptoms of premature skin aging. All of this damage occurs in our youth with most damage occurring before the age of 20. The good news is that using olive squalene minimizes the effect of this damage. Protects the skin from lipid peroxidation due to exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
Anti-inflammatory
If your skin is inflamed, you’re likely to experience a whole host of symptoms. dry, itchy, irritated, congested and blemish-prone skin to name a few. To combat these symptoms, our olive squalene soothes inflamed skin. We tested it on the most sensitive skin types and 100% of them said it didn’t cause any reactions. Win!
