The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser

The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser is a gentle, hydrating cleanser that effectively removes makeup, dirt, and impurities while maintaining the skin’s natural moisture balance. Here’s an overview of its benefits, usage, and pairing options:

Benefits on the Face

1. Removes Makeup and Impurities: Dissolves makeup, sunscreen, and excess oils without stripping the skin.

2. Hydrates the Skin: Squalane, a lightweight, non-comedogenic oil, replenishes hydration and leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth.

3. Supports Skin Barrier: Helps maintain the skin’s lipid barrier, making it ideal for sensitive or dry skin types.

4. Non-Stripping Formula: Suitable for daily use without causing dryness or tightness.

5. Soothes Irritation: Gentle formulation minimizes irritation, redness, and sensitivity.

How to Use

4. Rinse off with lukewarm water and pat dry.
