Is it safe to use squalane on a daily basis?

Can I substitute squalane oil for moisturiser?
When used topically (and is 100% plant derived), squalane can be an excellent moisturiser that is suitable for all skin types.
Can Squalane be used during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?

What is an active ingredient and what does it mean?
An "active ingredient" refers to the specific component or substance within a product that provides a therapeutic or beneficial effect on the skin. Active ingredients are typically responsible for targeting and addressing specific skin concerns.
How can I maximise the longevity and effectiveness of my serum?
Keep away from direct sunlight, avoid extreme temperatures, seal the container properly to minimise air exposure and avoid moisture and humidity and pay attention to the period after opening symbol. Layering products in the correct order, such as applying serums before moisturisers, can optimise their absorption and effectiveness.
Do I need to wear an SPF while using Squalane?
It is recommended to always apply SPF as the last step in your skincare routine.
Why does squalane sometimes smell like oil or petrol?
Squalane can have a subtle oily or petrol-like smell due to its natural origins and the manufacturing process. While it’s highly refined, trace remnants of the raw materials or processes can contribute to this scent. It’s a normal characteristic, especially in fragrance-free products, and doesn’t indicate poor quality.
Does DoSe by VH replace Garden of Wisdom?
DoSe by VH is a natural evolution of Garden of Wisdom and we are confident that the DoSe by VH products will exceed your expectations, delivering a heightened level of quality and efficacy. The DoSe serums and oils have been meticulously formulated, and in some cases reformulated by Shabir Daya MRPharmS, our co-founder who originally formulated GOW. While some formulations share the same INCI, we searched for and incorporated the optimal iterations of each, guaranteeing an enhanced quality. Not all ingredients are created equally and developments in formulations can change. It gave us the opportunity to better our offer for our customers who have previously loved GOW. We listened to the feedback from our customers regarding GOW and the bottles are now glass, which means they are also waterproof for the bathroom. We believe in constant improvement and staying at the forefront of skincare innovation.
