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.

Excellent for removing makeup
I don’t use this at all for cleansing my skin as it works much better as the first step of a double cleanse to remove makeup. It easily emulsifies all the makeup which can then be removed with cotton wool pads dipped in hot/warm water. Follow this up with your regular cleanser and treatments and I promise your skin will be back to normal after a whole day of makeup. Very pleased with this product and such a good price.

Disappointed
I really had high hopes for this as I love the ordinary but sadly I was left very disappointed. Very thick and would not emulsify. So could not get it off all. I sprang a lot longer on my facial routine because of it. In shock.

The best cleanser I've ever used
I have dry to normal skin and this is the best cleanser I have found for my skin type! It is not stripping on my face which is a problem I have had with other cleansers, and it leaves my skin feeling moisturised yet cleansed effectively. Is also great for removing makeup- when I've followed with micellar water there hasn't been anything left! This cleanser does it all and I can't recommend it enough for the price- the only issue is the 50ml ran out quite fast, so I've now bought a 150ml size!

Milky, light, yet works its magic
Use it for makeup removal mostly. Prefer it more than the oil unless it's a heavy makeup day. You can still use it as a single cleanser if wearing minimum or zero makeup. It's has a milky texture, doesn't run out of your hands or face till you start spreading it and massaging your face. Getting rinsed easily. Tried using it as a classic makeup removal milk and a cotton pad. Not the way to go (at least for me) as it's getting into the pad more than onto the face. Will consider repurchasing it.

Simple and effective
I bought this after suffering a bout of fungal acne on my face and body. It has helped my skin so much.

Can’t live without
My go to cleanser for first cleanse, I use this to remove make up / SPF then follow with something to target my skin problems. My skin is oily and sensitive and this doesn’t irritate and leaves my skin feeling clean but not tight. Can’t go wrong for the price, I only wish there was a bigger size !

Don't need the more expensive ones, this does it all!
I hate foam and milk or sticky feeling afterwards cleansers, tried a lot from Estee Lauder to Kiehls..(Kielhs was ok but sticky), and the price is a gift :)

Good for the price
It takes 60 seconds of massaging to turn it into an oil-consistency, and then it works very well, removing even waterproof makeup. However, there are many products out there that do not require as much labour to get them to work.

Nice one!
I have oily skin but this product works really well. It will change from cream to oil when you rub on your dry face but it doesn't give me any uncomfortable feeling after using it at all. It's the only cleansing that I use for my eye makeup. No breakouts after use. So far so good! The delivery was really fast and customer service is always helpful and reply quickly. I appreciate that.

Gorgeous cleanser at amazing value
Great simple cleanser with effective results - comfortably removes makeup including eyeliner and mascara and worked really well with my sensitive skin. Doesn't leave the skin feeling tight. My only comment would be the size is smaller than most of my other cleansers so doesn't last as long, however still incredible value for money!
