LipidsSqualane and Squalane are two very similar lipids and compose 15% of skin fats in the teenage years but decline to about 5% after age 50. This is a major factor in the skin becoming rough, dry, and vulnerable to damage.

Of the two compounds, Squalane from olive oil is more stable and preferred for skin use. When rubbed on skin, squalane acts to improve skin protection and moisturization. Squalane is absorbed deeply and quickly into the skin and does not leave an oily film. It is especially useful on dry scaly portions of the body as it helps to maintain your skin's natural moisture level and produces the appearance of softer, smoother skin.

After cleansing the skin, apply a light amount of SRCPs (Skin Remodeling Copper-Peptides) such as CP Serum, Super GHK-Copper, or Super Cop Cream.

After copper-peptides have penetrated, a light amount of Retinol in Squalane can be used on top as a moisturizer and penetrating agent to increase efficacy.

Retinol in Squalane also works as a great penetrating agent to control or moderate the strength of strong products.

Apply a light amount of Retinol in Squalane after applying copper-peptides to increase efficacy and make the cream/serum stronger. As it tries to go into the skin, when applied on top of SRCPs, it will help push down more of the copper-peptides, thus making it stronger.

Apply a light amount of Retinol in Squalane before applying copper-peptides to make the SRCPs milder. Basing the skin first with a light amount of Emu Oil-S will serve to slow down the penetration rate of the copper-peptide cream, thus making it milder.
