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.

No none sense cleanser
This is a great no none sense cleanser. Cheap, cheerful and does exactly what it says it does. Did not break me out.

Amazing hydrating cleanser
Love this as a second cleanse, super hydrating and doesn’t leave your skin with that horrible ‘squeaky clean’ feeling!

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.

Good but you can find better
I will always be fond of this product since it was my first FIRST cleansing product, but I have graduated onto better ones. It takes too much work to rub across your skin and can sting your eyes.

Nice
Excellent at removing every scrap of makeup. Just don’t think it’s the best for oily skin. Would still work as a first cleanse if a different second cleanse is used. Overall nice product at a very good price.
