Why you need it
Why you need it
The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser is a formula that incorporates Squalane, a natural substance that's wonderfully moisturising for skin and has a texture similar to a dry oil. The formula also includes other lipophilic esters that are gentle, moisturizing, efficient in dissolving makeup and facial impurities and increasing the spreadability of the product.
When rubbed between your palms for approximately 10-30 seconds, the Squalane Cleanser changes from a balm-like consistency to a clear oil-like consistency. This allows the emulsifying sucrose esters in the formula to trap and blend the dissolved makeup and facial impurities with water for rinsing.
The formula is non-comedogenic and soap-free, so is gentle enough for daily use, without over-drying the skin, making it suitable for all skin types.

I love this cleanser, so gentle, leaves your skin feeling clean and soft, highly recommend.
Absolutely love this cleanser, massage it it to dry skin and it just melts. I'll definitely be reordering this one!

Simple but effective make up remover!
Hydrating gentle cleanser
Great cleanser, gentle on the skin. Face feels very smooth after use.
so far i am very happy with this cleanser. i am a fan of The Ordinary brand products
my favourite oil based cleanser for double cleansing
This is the best cleanser. I love the cream to oil. It feels wonderful. Skin feels so cleansed and so smooth. Only a small amount is needed. I wouldn't use any other cleanser. Great value too.
Great for removing make up

Great product
my skin feels refreshed and not tight
Leaves face feeling clean, moist and non greasy
Love love this product so much
Lovely cleanser, great at removing makeup. Not for those who love a nice smelling cleanser as it’s fragrance free but for those of us with sensitive skin it’s a winner.
Takes makeup off so well
It’s amazing the makeup just melts off with this cleanser
This cleanser is light and doesn't dry out the skin.
I have rosacea and sensitive skin and swear by this cleanser. Its so gentle yet effective at cleansing and removing makeup. A little goes a long way. It's best if you rub it in your hands and melt it then massage into face before rising with warm water.
Brilliant cleanser and really affordable price
Lovely cleanser that doesn't leave your skin dry and tight afterwards.
Great service
Great product at a great price point
I have been struggling with my skin for a couple of years. Random little patch of dry, red itchy skin on my chin, so I did my research and came across The Ordinary. I bought the Squalane Cleanser, and within a few days it had cleared up! I'm so impressed. This is my brand new routine skincare brand now!
Worked well to get makeup off, but you have to use quite a bit to cleanse your whole face.
This is a great product. I use it as a second step cleanser to remove my make up or after a day under the sun.
Great value
So cleansing but gentle on the skin. My skin varies between spots and no spots because of wearing a mask now and this is the best for all my skin types
Cleans all dirt from the face easily
Great cleanser. Not for you if you like a really foamy one!!

great service great products!!
