The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser is an opulent cleansing balm that nourishes your skin while smoothly melting away excess oil, pollutants, and makeup. Your complexion will feel moisturized and renewed after using this 50ml gem, which blends the mild cleansing qualities of squalane with its lightweight goodness.

What is The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser?

Squalane Cleanser 50ml is a non-foaming, gentle facial cleanser designed to remove dirt, makeup, and impurities without stripping the skin’s natural moisture barrier. The key ingredient in this cleanser is squalane, a plant-derived compound known for its excellent moisturizing and skin-barrier-supporting properties.

Unlike harsher cleansers that can leave your skin feeling tight and dry, this product works to hydrate while cleansing, making it an ideal choice for those with dry, sensitive, or compromised skin. It’s also suitable for individuals with oily or combination skin who are looking for a mild yet effective formula that won’t cause over-drying or irritation.

Key Ingredients and Their Benefits

1. Squalane (Hydrating and Nourishing)

   • Squalane is a naturally occurring lipid that helps keep the skin soft and hydrated. It mimics the skin's natural oils and can penetrate deeply into the skin without clogging pores. This makes it an excellent ingredient for moisturizing, soothing inflammation, and repairing the skin's moisture barrier.
   • In Ordinary Squalane Cleanser, squalane serves as both the primary hydrating agent and as an effective cleanser that dissolves impurities and removes makeup without leaving the skin feeling greasy or stripped.

2. Glycerin (Moisturizing Agent)

   • Glycerin is a powerful humectant that draws moisture from the air into the skin. It helps to maintain the skin’s hydration levels by locking in moisture and keeping it soft, smooth, and plump. Combined with squalane, glycerin enhances the overall moisturizing effects of this cleanser.

3. Emollients (For Smooth Application)

   • The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser contains emollients that help the product glide on smoothly, making it easy to massage into the skin. These emollients also help prevent the cleanser from feeling too thick or greasy, ensuring a comfortable and non-drying cleanse.

How Does The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser Work?

Ordinary Squalane Cleanser works by breaking down and lifting away dirt, makeup, and oil from the skin’s surface. It does so gently, without stripping away the skin's natural oils or disrupting its protective barrier. When massaged into the skin, the cleanser transforms into an oil-like consistency, which helps to dissolve makeup and impurities effectively.

After you rinse it off with warm water, your skin feels soft, hydrated, and clean—never tight or dry. Because it’s a non-foaming , it won’t leave any soapy residue behind, making it suitable for sensitive skin types prone to irritation or dryness.

How to Use The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser

For the best results, follow these simple steps when using The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser:

1. Apply to Dry Skin: Begin with dry skin. Take a small amount of the cleanser (about a pea-sized amount) and apply it directly to your face.

2. Massage Gently: Gently massage the product into your skin for 30 seconds to a minute. The cleanser will start to feel like an oil and will dissolve dirt, makeup, and impurities as you massage.

3. Rinse with Water: After massaging, rinse your face with warm water. The cleanser will emulsify with the water, turning into a milky texture that easily washes away, leaving your skin feeling clean and hydrated.

4. Follow with Your Skincare Routine: After cleansing, follow up with your favorite toner, serum, and moisturizer to lock in hydration and complete your skincare routine.
