Stripping back unnecessary packaging and misleading ingredients, The Ordinary offers an abundance of brilliant, high-performance products at eye-wideningly reasonable prices – and their Squalane Cleanser is no exception! Carefully formulated for all skin types, this clever potion dissolves make up and the day's dirt while simultaneously moisturising with a combination of squalane and other lipophilic esters.
This gentle cleanser is anything but ordinary, removing make up and impurities as it retains your skin's moisture – unlike some harsher cleansers, there's no need to worry about tightness after using this. Star of the show is squalane, a first-class hydrator that's found naturally in the skin, helping to prevent loss of moisture and boost suppleness. This combines with other lipophilic esters to dissolve make up and unwanted grime for clean and clog-free pores. The hard-working formula feels balm-like when first applied, changing to a clear oil-like texture when warmed into your skin – an important feat that allows emulsifying sucrose esters to capture the dissolved make up and dirt and rinse them away. Free from soap, which can cause irritation or 'strip' the skin, this crowd-pleasing cleanser respects your complexion's natural epidermal lipids, making it suitable for all skin types – even sensitive ones.

My go to cleanser
Use this morning and evening everyday, and have for years. Removes everything without making my skin feels stripped and dry

Okay.
I purchased this cleanser as it has been referred to as a "cult" item by many. Unfortunately for me it did not live up to the hype, and stripped my skin. For the price point however, it may be excellent for other people.

Not very effective cleanser
Ive gone through almost half a bottle of this cleanser, its almost like a cream cleanser but not that effective at cleansing, even after cleansing i feel like theres a film left on my face which i dislike. This may be great for those who have dry skin as it feels quite moisturising! but not for me personally

Does the job but...
I prefer oils to wash off my makeup, but I thought this might be a good option to take away with me. First things first, does it do the job it's meant to - yes, absolutely. However, I don't think it's as good as the oil I use from another brand and I don't like the smell or the consistency. The product just isn't as effective as oil unless you use quite a bit and my face didn't really feel clean after use either, which really defeats the object of its use. This cleanser may well work for other people but I personally would not re-purchase. I have used plenty of other products from this brand and been more than happy, so I guess this one just happens to be the odd one out.

If you like creamy cleansers don't overpay - get this one
I prefer oils but as far as creamy cleanser goes this is perfection, will get remove your make up and will be gentle on your skin. You don't need to look no any further.
