Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil

This is squalane doing a different job. Instead of a plain single-ingredient oil, Biossance uses a squalane base to carry a stable vitamin C derivative and Damascus rose, turning it into a brightening serum-oil hybrid you use for glow rather than just hydration.
It earns its place when dull skin needs reviving: the squalane keeps it lightweight while the vitamin C works on radiance, and a little goes a long way. It's a treat product, priced accordingly, and it looks and smells the part.
Two honest flags. It's premium for 1 oz, and the rose scent means it isn't for the fragrance-averse. If you want plain squalane, buy the 100% oil and add a dedicated vitamin C separately.
The specs
Squalane carrier oil with a stable vitamin C derivative and Damascus rose — a brightening serum-oil hybrid.
Squalane base keeps it lightweight; patch-test if fragrance or rose extract sensitizes you.
What we like
- Squalane base plus a stable vitamin C derivative
- Noticeable radiance and glow
- A little goes a long way
Keep in mind
- Premium price for 1 oz
- Contains rose fragrance — not for the fragrance-averse
Who should skip it: Skip it if you want a fragrance-free oil or just plain squalane without added actives.
Frequently asked questions
Is Biossance Vitamin C Rose Oil a serum or an oil?
It's a hybrid — a squalane oil base carrying a stable vitamin C derivative and rose, so it functions like a brightening serum with the feel of a lightweight oil.
Does Biossance Vitamin C Rose Oil have fragrance?
Yes, it carries a natural rose scent, so it's not the pick if you prefer fragrance-free skincare.
