šæ Why Dermagraceās Delicate Moisturizer Is a Must-Have: Backed by 40 Studies
Share
If your skin still burns, faints at fragrances, or flares up at every "gentle" productāthis oneās for you. Sensitive skin (hello eczema, rosacea, reactive barrier) deserves skincare that actually listens. Letās talk about why squalane, and what weāve built in Dermagrace, makes a real difference.
š§ The Power of Squalane: āBest Oil According to 40 Studiesā
A roundup of over 40 studies (gathered, for example, in the SimpleSkinCareScience review) shows that squalane (the hydrogenated, stable version of squalene) is one of the most tolerated, barrier-supportive, and effective oils for skin ā especially when skin is sensitive, acne-prone, or experiencing inflammation. Simple Skincare Science
Here are some top reasons from the research why squalane is such a game-changer:
-
Anti-inflammatory effects: Helps calm redness, itching, swelling in eczema, rosacea, and sensitive skin. Era Organics+2Cleveland Clinic+2
-
Non-comedogenic: Doesnāt clog pores or trigger acne flare-ups. Great for those with oily, combination, or acne-prone skin. Cleveland Clinic+2CeraVe+2
-
Deep hydration without greasiness: Penetrates well, helps reduce moisture loss, supports suppleness and smoother texture. Era Organics+1
-
Strengthens skin barrier: Mimics your skinās own natural oils; helps the barrier resist irritants rather than letting them in. Era Organics+1
These findings back up what sensitive skin sufferers often feel in their gut: clean, simple, well-formulated products work better than trendy, ingredient-heavy ones.
š± Why Dermagraceās Squalane Is Different (and Better)
Not all squalane is created equal:
-
Shark-derived squalane? Totally off our list. Unsustainable + ethically messy.
-
Olive-derived squalane? Better, but less consistent. Olive sources can carry trace impurities (plant waxes, phytosterols, free fatty acids) that can irritate very reactive skin. Thatās a risk we donāt take.
-
Sugarcane-derived squalane? Thatās what Dermagrace uses. Why it wins:
-
Highly pure, fewer impurities than many olive-derived sources
-
Renewable, plant-based, more eco-friendly
-
Stable, lightweight, and safe for even extremely sensitive, eczema or rosacea-prone skin
-
