Answer
Regarding your questions about using Squalane oil for skin:
- Can Squalane oil be applied directly to the skin? Yes, Squalane oil can be applied directly to the skin.
- What can be added for a cool, refreshing feeling? For a cooling sensation, you can consider adding CoolTouch™ (Menthyl Lactate) at a concentration of 0.1-1.0%.
- Can whitening ingredients like ODA-White Plus be added to the oil? Yes, ODA-White Plus can be added to the oil as it dissolves directly in oil.
- Which is more effective: applying oil directly or applying oil in a cream formulation? Formulations in cream form are generally absorbed better by the skin. Additionally, cream formulations allow you to incorporate water-soluble active ingredients, which is not possible with pure oil.
