This has been my MIRACLE.
Okay, I bought this on a whim. I have pretty severe sebaceous hyperplasia. I have had chemical peels. I’ve had them burned off, frozen, I’ve used topical retin A from my dermatologist. It always rages back. I saw a review say this stuff shrinks them and makes them much less visible. I was put off by the price, but let’s face it, I’ve dropped a lot more than this.My first wash, I did not use anything to remove my make up. I wanted to see if this got rid of it by what was left when I used my toner. Initially, I thought this stuff would be greasy. IT IS NOT! It COMPLETELY MELTED MY MAKE UP AWAY! I have used it daily for about two weeks. It is unlike anything I have ever used. It leaves my face clean, but not dry. It isn’t oily either, like some make up removers that then require soap and water. I have purchased most of the face cleaners in Ulta. I have never, in my oily 57 years, used anything like this. The price point is amazing considering what it does. It even removed my waterproof mascara???? I don’t know what is in this, and frankly I do not care. It’s hot where I live, and my SH is not growing. My skin feels clean. It’s not dry. It’s not greasy. I write reviews only occasionally, but I want others who have struggled with oily skin issues for years to know there’s something out there for us. I can’t speak to dry skin, but it feels extremely gentle. Am I rid of my excess oil completely? No, but I have other solutions in my toolbox for that. I will do without other things to buy this again and again. I love other products from The Ordinary, but THIS one is the Holy Grail. I still have bumps from SH. However, they are almost flat, and much less noticeable. For my fellow sufferers out there, this helped me. They’re no longer the first thing I see when I look in the mirror. I don’t feel like people see them and wonder what the heck is on my face. Many thanks to The Ordinary for a decently priced, effective product that does what it says.

I will swear by this product forever! It takes my makeup off with such ease and isn’t a huge hassle. I have sensitive skin and it doesn’t mess with my face at all.

My favourite clenser
I love this cleanser, my 3rd time repurchasing it. It is super gentle, doesn’t strip your skin, doesn’t have a smell.

Great when you have on makeup
If I wear makeup this is my preferred cleanser because it’s great at getting rid of concealers and liquid makeup from face. If my skin is feeling dry this is all I use. If it’s oily i follow with neutrogena for sensitive skin.

Gentle, effective cleanser with one minor drawback
The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser is a gentle yet effective cleanser that removes makeup and impurities without stripping the skin. Its plant-derived squalane base leaves the skin feeling soft and hydrated. The formula is free from alcohol, oil, and silicones, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. However, some users have reported a strong, unpleasant odor developing after a few months of use, even when stored properly. Despite this, many find it to be an affordable and reliable option for daily cleansing.

Lovely cleanser
Beautiful cleanser. Creamy easy to apply, simply massage onto dry skin. Remove with warm water. I used a wet washcloth to remove . Leaves skin soft clean.

Works ok but smells old?
Normally I really love The Ordinary’s products, and this one seems to work ok but the smell is so off putting I can’t use it for the appropriate amount of time. It smells like old lipstick, for lack of a better description. The tube came sealed and everything seemed fine with it but it just smells old to me and it grosses me out. Excellent price, and I want to like it, but I’m just struggling with the smell.

First of all, this has an oily texture so if you have acne or prone to spots you may want to check it with your skin doctor first. In my experience I can say that I absolutely love this product and it does clean and prepares my skin very well for the serum/cream after.

Pour ma part je ne l’utilise pas comme demaquillant mais lavage uniquement. Ayant une peau très sensible. Cette marque est parfaite ma peau est belle depuis .
