100% squalane seals in moisture and rescues winter dryness; can feel heavy.

What the community says

A single-ingredient squalane oil for sealing in moisture after moisturizer, especially when cold weather wrecks your barrier. Dry, sensitive, rosacea-prone, and tretinoin-treated skin gets the most mileage, though oilier or combination skin may find two drops too heavy.
