Some skincare brands quietly win us over with effective formulas. Others go further, standing for something bigger than what’s inside the jar. Biossance does both. The California-based beauty brand is a favourite among skincare lovers like us for its science-backed, sustainably minded approach to a glowing face. Because at the heart of their products is sugarcane-derived squalane—a clean, vegan hydrator that mimics our epidermis’ natural moisture. It’s what makes their lotions, creams, serums and oils such standouts. They feel good, do good and they’re good for the planet too.
Like Biossance’s limited edition Squalane + Omega Repair Cream created in partnership with Oceana.
Not just a pretty, teal green glass jar with turquoise and gold fishy embellisments, this must-have/must-use face cream is a real do-gooder. Five per cent of the proceeds from every luxe jar goes directly to the world’s largest international ocean conservation group to help to protect and restore our seas and all that live and swim within it. So every time you dip in, know you’re supporting the planet as you nourish your skin.
Thick and buttery with a soft, comforting scent that smells like a fresh, dewy morning, the cream is just as effective as its packaging and melts into the skin immediately. Its star ingredient squalene locks this moisture in without feeling greasy, while omega fatty acids, ceramides and plant sterols join forces to help reinforce our skin’s barrier, smooth texture and calm irritations. All skin types can use it too, morning and night, especially those on the drier or more sensitive side. Just a small scoop pressed into our face and neck leaves our skin plump, radiant and deeply hydrated. But this is limited do-gooder edition, so make sure to get yours now.
Biossance x Oceana Limited Edition Squalane + Omega Repair Cream, $81 for 50 ml, available at Sephora.
