Stearic acid; avocado oil; squalane (explicitly noted as 'squalane, not squalene').

Chapters

So yes, you can absolutely use Baphene as a facial moisturizer, especially in the dry winter months on your lips too, because it's loaded in stearic acid, which is a multitasking fatty acid. Avocado oil, which is a highly oleic plant oil, great for dry skin. And Squalane, not Squalene. Squalane, which is a very elegant facial oil for dry skin that helps minimize trans epidermal water loss. And then sometimes I even lip baste with this guy while I'm getting ready. So I'm about to put my makeup on and I put a thick coat over my lips and I let it melt in until my lips are nice juicy and puffy. Makeup done, skin feels plump, dewy and ready to start the day. So hope this helps somebody with really dry, chapped, cracked, angry skin.
