Now the remaining ingredients

・Hydrogenated farnesene・Squalane・Tocopherol

We will explain in detail about this.

What is hydrogenated farnesene?

Hydrogenated farnesene is a compound obtained by hydrogenating a naturally occurring terpene hydrocarbon called farnesene. Farnesene itself is a compound obtained from sugar cane and other plants and is used as a fragrance and cosmetic ingredient. Hydrogenated farnesene is used as an emollient and texture modifier in cosmetics and skin care products.

The role of hydrogenated farnesene

Erymont Effect : Hydrogenated farnesene has an emollient effect that gives softness and smoothness when applied to the skin. This relieves dry skin and forms a protective barrier on the skin. When applied to the skin, it has a light feel and is not sticky, keeping the skin moisturized.

Feel Modifier: Hydrogenated farnesene is used to improve the feel of oils and creams. It smooths the texture, making the product easier to apply and better absorbed into the skin. This improves the feel of the product and makes it feel comfortable on the skin.

Improved stability: Hydrogenated farnesene has high oxidative stability, which helps improve the overall stability of the product when blended with other oils and ingredients. This helps prevent deterioration due to oxidation of the product and extends its shelf life.

What happens when hydrogenated farnesene is blended with oil?

Smooth feel <br>By blending hydrogenated farnesene with oil, the product feels extremely smooth and spreads easily on the skin. It has a light finish with less stickiness, making it comfortable to use.

Improved moisturizing effect <br> Hydrogenated farnesene has an emollient effect, so blending it with oil enhances its moisturizing effect. When applied to the skin, it forms a moisturizing film that protects the skin from dryness.

Blending hydrogenated farnesene improves the oxidation stability of the product and prevents deterioration due to oxidation of the oil. This improves the shelf life of the product and maintains its quality even after long-term use.

Lightweight Texture and Finish The addition of hydrogenated farnesene reduces the weight of the oil, resulting in a lighter texture. This makes the oil-based product feel lighter and more easily absorbed into the skin.

What is squalane?

Squalane is a stable compound made from a natural lipid called squalene. Squalene is found in large amounts in the human body's sebum, especially in young skin, and supports the skin's moisturizing and barrier functions. However, squalene is easily oxidized, so when it is used in cosmetics and skin care products, hydrogen is added to convert it into squalane to increase its stability.

Squalane is a widely used ingredient in cosmetics and skin care products because it retains the structure of squalene present in the skin and is stable against oxidation.

The effects of squalane

High moisturizing effect
Squalane forms a light oil film on the surface of the skin, preventing water from evaporating and providing excellent moisturizing effects. It is particularly effective in moisturizing dry and sensitive skin, keeping the skin moist.

Maintains skin flexibility
Squalane penetrates the skin easily and helps maintain its flexibility, preventing it from becoming hard due to dryness or external stimuli, and keeping the skin soft and smooth.

Light to use <br>Squalane has a very light texture and is not sticky. Therefore, it can be used comfortably by people with oily skin or during the summer. It also works well as a base for makeup.

Oxidation stability <br>Squalane is highly resistant to oxidation, so it remains stable for long periods of time and is an ingredient that helps maintain the quality of products. This means that cosmetics containing squalane have a high shelf life and are protected from deterioration due to oxidation.

Strengthening the skin barrier <br> Squalane supports the skin's barrier function and protects it from external stimuli and pollutants. By strengthening the barrier function, skin health is maintained, making it an ingredient suitable for people with sensitive or atopic skin.

Antioxidant effect : Squalane has antioxidant properties and is expected to have an effect of preventing skin aging. It helps reduce damage caused by free radicals and keeps skin looking youthful.


Squalane is an excellent ingredient with high moisturizing effect, light texture and oxidation stability. It is suitable for a wide range of skin types from dry to oily, and is used for a variety of purposes such as skin care, hair care and as a makeup base. It is a useful ingredient for supporting the skin's barrier function and maintaining supple and healthy skin.

What is Tocopherol?

Tocopherol is a type of vitamin E, a fat-soluble antioxidant vitamin. There are four different forms of tocopherol that occur in nature (α, β, γ, δ), but α-tocopherol is the most commonly used in cosmetics and dietary supplements. Vitamin E is found in large amounts in vegetable oils, nuts, seeds, and green leafy vegetables, and plays a very important role in maintaining health and beauty.

Antioxidant

Role: Tocopherol has a strong antioxidant effect and plays a role in protecting cells from oxidative stress. Oxidative stress occurs when unstable molecules called free radicals damage cells, which causes aging and various diseases. Tocopherol prevents this, thereby maintaining the health of the skin and the entire body.

Skin protection

Role: Tocopherol protects the skin from UV rays and environmental pollution. This helps prevent age spots and wrinkles and slows down skin aging. Tocopherol also strengthens the skin's barrier function and protects the skin from dryness and inflammation.

Moisturizing effect

Role: Tocopherol has a moisturizing effect that moisturizes the skin. It increases the skin's ability to retain moisture and helps prevent itching and dryness caused by dryness. It is also a suitable ingredient for dry and sensitive skin because it gives the skin flexibility and smoothness.

Promoting wound healing

Role: Tocopherol has the effect of promoting skin repair. This can speed up the healing of minor wounds, inflammation, burns, etc. Skin care products containing tocopherol are used to soothe and help repair the skin.

Maintaining healthy hair

What it does: Tocopherol promotes hair health by increasing blood circulation to the scalp and providing nutrients to the hair roots, helping hair grow stronger and healthier and preventing breakage and split ends.
