Couldn't load pickup availability
Essentially Natural Olive Squalane is a lightweight, highly stable plant-derived emollient used in skincare and haircare for slip, softness, and a silky finish. It is commonly used on its own or in serums, cleansers, creams, emulsions, and leave-in hair products where a non-greasy feel is important. Although it behaves like an oil in use, it is a very stable saturated ingredient with a cleaner, less aromatic profile than many botanical oils. This makes it especially useful when a smooth, elegant finish is the main goal.
♡ Why we love it: We choose to stock olive squalane because it is one of the easiest ingredients to build around when a formula needs lightness and polish. It works beautifully in minimalist routines, supports elegant skin feel in many product types, and brings stability without the heavier character of richer oils.
Looking for an alternative? Sugar Squalane is an easy swap for Olive Squalane, with the same lightweight, silky feel and the same INCI (Squalane). In most formulations, you can simply use the same amount (1-to-1).

Olive Squalane from Essentially natural is my all time favourite product.it adds a satin feel finish to my facial serum. I love it ❤️ Thank you for this amazing product.
I love this oil, it feels amazing on my skin, i could stand there massaging my face for ages, not at all greasy. I got this together with some other oils.
Love it
I love the squalane oil. It's so easy to apply to the skin and it's very nourishing. I will definitely add it to my skincare routine.
Essentially natural gave me a sample, started using it on my face with jojoba oil and it did wonders! So I bought a 10 ml, for it last long.
First time buying this scrumptious oil...skin is loving it...will definitely be ordering again soon .using a.m. and p.m. I'm hooked..service and delivery was excellent..thank you Essentially Natural.
My dark spots are fading, I'm never gonna be without it ever.
I’ve been using this squalane for the past couple of years, always been good
Absolutely love how hydrated and supple my skin feels. Just love it!
This is the second time I've ordered this product, the product itself is very good quality and the service is excellent. Would highly recommend Essentially Natural to anyone. I put this on my face before moisturizing every morning and evening, and can visibly see the difference it's made.
Oh my skin feel so hydrated and supple. This is my new night treatment. Just love it!
Such a beautiful oil.....!!!
Love,Love,Love it on my SKIN...!!!
ROSACEA SKIN DOES NOT AGREE WITH JUST ANYTHING....BUT IT LOVES THIS ONE😊❤️🥰
To be honest, this product has changed my life. Despite having combination skin, I have been using it since 2020 because the products I was using at the time damaged my skin barrier and left my skin feeling dry all the time. My skin barrier has now been restored, and the oil has made my skin much more hydrated and clearer.
My skin absolutely LOVES this product! Provides so much moisture! Fantastic product! - I use a few drops, mixed with the Rose Water
I use it on my face every day. It moisturize my mature skin without any oiliness. Luv it!
Oh how is it that I only discover this fabulous product in my fifties? I'm hooked!
I use it on my face twice daily and any other dry patch, example my dry elbows and it takes the dryness away with one application.
No more dry skin for me! My face is soooo soft.
If you can only afford one beauty product for your face, this is it!
Use it I my face serum and my toner. My clients love it. I had a rash that came out on my cheek and I used it overnight. Skin was clear within 2 days.
This is my second bottle of olive squalane that I've ordered from Essentially Natural. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it helps with the treatment of stretch marks. I applied the squalane to a stubborn stretch mark that was pink and angry looking for more than a year now. I noticed that it had faded significantly in just a couple of weeks of use. It's also great to use as a lightweight hair oil. I love that it's a natural, affordable cruelty free product.
I use the squaline as facial oil. It has a soft and satin feel on the skin. Live the product!
This oil is lighter than olive oil. I used it to wash my hair (along with other ingredients of course), taking my type of hair into consideration (dry strands and scalp that becomes oily), it doesn't leave the hair on my scalp as oily as olive oil does. The strands are still too dry though.
Thank you for this amazing product. I made a serum with Olive Squalane and love the way my skin has improved. It feels like satin, lines are softened and "plumped out'. Great service and appreciate the little gifts that arrive and informative articles.
My skin as been incredibly dry to the point of being tight and flaking. The Olive Squaline is so incredible after the first use my skin felt supple and plump again. Worked like magic. Super light and excellent as a moisturizer.
Perfect quality. Perfect delivery.
Heart smiles and excited for formulations.
Love product...
.....perfect service/supplier..
Perfect oil for my dry and sensitive skin, a little goes a long way. Amazed how quickly my flaky skin recovered over few nights of application using this amazing product.
I really appreciate all the information provided on this website as a newbie i am never looking back again i found my home,
courier service is the blink of an eye type and very professional packaging.
Thank you EN STAFF.
This is a good product if you suffer with oily skin, it absorbs well and doesn't leave an oily residue on the skin. Squalene is also non comodogenic so it doesn't block pores.
I love how plump it makes my skin feel! Will definitely incorporate it into my face creams in future.
Thanks for the descriptions of products, otherwise I might never have tried it.
Best service ever just received my order after 3 days and the oil is amazing I added with other oils,rose water and vitamin C to make serum
Olive squalane is just amazing! Love this product so much. But most importantly love your super professional and efficient service!
Loving this product, only use a few drops on my face. It lasts long. Bought the 10ml a month ago and I used it almost every night. Very absorbent and hydrating. It's been useful since I started using retinol.
This stuff is amazing, 2 drops of this, with 1 or 2 drops of their Hyaluronic serum 1% and mix both in your hand with a spritz of their rose water hydrosol is heaven! You wont look back after doing this.
Can be used as part of a serum. Wonderfull product!
Love Squalane it works wonderfully
Love this oil! I have used it for a few months now and it has made a remarkable difference. I apply the oil after my HA serum to lock in the moisture.
I can’t go without my Squaline… and ofcourse the added benefit is that I never have to wait long for my products! The service is very efficient!
