detailedReviews: detailedReviews 1: content: I never do reviews, but I feel pulled to do this... Th Ordinary products saved my face!!! I am 53years old and start getting these papules on my cheeks. Also , my skin felt itchy and irritated all the time. I started treating the papules with all this acne stuff, but nothing was helping, if anything it was worsening!! I began to suspect allergies/ eczema. ..??? So I scanned the internet for milder products to clean my super oily skin without damaging it. The name pulled me in... The Ordinary! Sounds like a plan . So, me being a simple 3 step-
regimen type gal, I started with the gel cleaner for AM, followed by the zinc /niacinamide gel thingy, then sealed with my Clinique city block moisturizer. For pm, I use the creamy squalane cleaner to assist with makeup removal, the zinc/ niacinamide gel, and sealed with The Ordinary squalane moisturizer. I eventually incorporated the 0.5% retinol every other night. Within 2-3 weeks the papules where history! No itching/ redness/ burning!! And the retinol has been working on dark spots left behind. I will be continuing this but will eventually start using the 1 % retinol. The Ordinary is my skin's savior...Thank you so much!🥰

title: Saved my face from papules and irritation
detailedReviews 2: content: I have been using Squalene Cleanser for a couple of months and am incredibly pleased. I have mature skin and had been using an alpha-beta hydroxy cleanser with Jojoba beads for over two years, to encourage cellular turnover. My skin was becoming more and more inflamed and was having breakouts, but I thought that product was what my skin required to be really clean and youthful. I received Squalene Cleanser in a package deal with other favorite NIOD products and gave it a try. Wow! My skin calmed down in a short time, was much cleaner than with my prior cleanser, and since it was not overproducing oil in response to the harshness of my prior Cleanser, I stopped having breakouts, my pores are much smaller, and all my blackheads went away! Totally unexpected WOW! My skin is consistently clearer and more beautiful than it's been in years.

detailedReviews 3: content: I have super-sensitive rosacea skin with flushing, permanent redness, dryness, and pustules. This is the first cleanser I've found that doesn't flare my rosacea or contain any ingredients I'm allergic to. I used Vanicream's cleanser for a long time, but when I washed my face, it seemed super irritated, dried out, and tight feeling. Even water irritates my face, but this Squalane Cleanser seems to cleanse, protect, and hydrate my sensitive skin. I'm on month 3 of use, and am starting my 3rd 50 mL bottle. My skin hydration has increased, which is crazy with it being the middle of the winter. I highly recommend this cleanser for those who have hyper-sensitive skin.

title: First cleanser for sensitive rosacea skin
detailedReviews 4: content: I've struggled with a combo of acne and eczema since I was a child and had a mother who was very into makeup and skincare so I got started on a skincare regimen at a young age. I've tried hundreds of products since I was in middle school. I've even tried a few products from the ordinary in the past but didn't find them effective. Now I believe that the ineffectiveness was mostly due to my own lifestyle factors. When I moved out for college I realized that my lifestyle really plays a part in how my skin looks and feels (diet, exercise, and especially stress). I began using completely natural products including oil cleansing and following with a gentle soap. After a couple years of this I found that it got the job done, but it was a lot of work and I felt like my skin could still improve quite a bit. So I finally decided to try the ordinary again, knowing that they use the bare essentials in their products, which makes me feel good, and I know won't flare up my sensitivities. I also remembered liking the texture of this product when I tried it as a teen. I'm so glad I tried it again!!!! It's like oil cleansing but easier and with better results! The key is to really massage it in before rinsing. I've been using it for a few weeks now and I genuinely get excited to was my face because I love it so much. My skin feels so hydrated and clean! This is seriously the only cleanser I will ever use!!!!

title: Transformed skin, easier than oil cleansing
detailedReviews 5: content: I have been using this cleanser for ohhh I guess about 4 years. It is my all time favorite. Makes my skin so soft and lovely! My husband even uses it now 😂 As long as you're sure to rub it into your eye makeup a little longer it will take it off no problem. Far less damaging than make up wipes for mascara and eyeliner. Just be patient it's worth it cuz ....less wrinkles!
As I've been aging my skin has changed and I recently started developing perioral dermatitis...a very difficult condition to treat but this cleanser causes me no flare ups. I even tried a couple skincare face wash products that were meant for my skin condition...truth is they didn't work as well and dried my face MORE than the ordinary squalene cleanser. I was pretty blown away! This is a simple, gentle face wash that makes your skin soft and calm after use. My skin completely changed when I started using this along with other ordinary products. No more acne, no more dry skin. For years now. Thank you and hats off to the ordinary ! This skin care line has changed my skin for the better. Affordable and I'm so grateful! Thank you to the folks at the Ordinary !

detailedReviews 6: content: To say I have problem skin would be putting it mildly! It is highly sensitive, always dehydrated, super reactive and spot prone, despite being 30+... I stumbled upon The Ordinary Squaline cleanser in an (unrelated) physical store, who stopped selling this product almost immediately after my purchase, so I could never source any. Then I saw it on BeautyBay in a larger size no less. It is so moisturising... my skin doesn't feel stripped of natural oils, as with some other make-up removal products. It takes off my waterproof make up so easily... I wash it off using those microfiber make up removing pads, and there is no scrubbing needed. My skin is the most settled it has ever been. Genuinely can't believe the difference this has made. I won't ever go back to horrible make up wipes!! So, please please never stop selling this... it is my favourite, and I don't use that word lightly!

Paired with the TO Glycolic Acid toner, this cleanser really elevated my skincare game and helped clean my clogged pores.

title: Cleans pores, removes gunk effectively
detailedReviews 8: content: I got recommeded this by Sisley Killam, the holistic acne nutritionist based in Vancouver (I am Canadian). I found this after years of searching for a good cleanser that would not dry or irritate my sensitive skin or mess with my skin barrier. The meddling factor was that all the good cleansers seem to break my very studently bank. This cleanser is an all-in-one with affordability!
My skin does not feel stripped after using this cleanser, despite my dry skin. I have been using this cleanser for almost two years now, and I have no reason to change my choice. Curiousity may lead me to trying more expensive brands once I can let myself indulge, but for now, The Ordinary is my jam.
I can't speak for the more expensive cleansers, like Tatcha and Youth to the People because I haven't tried them. What I do know is if you want a cleanser free of harsh chemicals that don't disrupt your skin barrier, I see this one as the best shot I have had for a cleanser that is ALSO affordable.
I love that I can find it accessible in the "luxury" beauty/skincare stores -- Sephora in the US and Canada, and now SpaceNK in the UK! It makes it easier for me to buy it.

detailedReviews 9: content: At such a cheap price point, I had some reservations about trying this product. However, the Ordinary is really solid proof that affordable and efficacious don't have to be mutually exclusive after all! I'm so impressed by this product in particular, as it has now become my absolute favorite cleanser! I highly recommend this cleanser for anybody with especially dry and/or acne-prone skin because the squalane formulation retains the moisture required to maintain a healthy skin barrier, without any harsh stripping. No other cleanser has left my face so hydrated and it has smoothed the rough texture I previously suffered from with its mattifying, pore-blurring finish.

title: Affordable and effective for dry, acne-prone skin
detailedReviews 10: content: I have sensitive, acne prone, combination type skin and have always struggled with finding a good cleanser. Anyone in a similar boat knows how hard it is to balance a cleanser that cleans your skin effectively, is non-irritating to acne, but won’t strip your skin and leave it dry and flaky. For a long time, I was super hooked on my Youth To The People Superfood Cleanser, but the price tag made my wallet cry. Now, my wallet is crying happy tears over the sheer amount of money I’m saving with this brand and my skin has never retained so much moisture. This cleanser is a little bit different than others, in the sense that it’s more like a cleansing balm. I think a lot of the negative reviews are from people who may just not be using it correctly. It starts out as a cream and becomes an oil that gently oil cleanses your skin, once dampening your face, it becomes this intensely hydrating milky texture that you then rinse off. I’ve never had my skin retain so much moisture before, and my skin doesn’t feel dry or tight afterwards at all. I’m absolutely aghast at how underrated this product is, especially for the price. I love to pair this with other The Ordinary products, specifically their 10% Niacinamide Serum, their 2% Salicylic Acid Masque, Glycolic Toner, and Natural Hydrating Factors + HA moisturizer. Their products have transformed my skin in just a few days, and have really helped me recover from a particularly bad break out. Seriously, this brand and their products deserve more recognition.

Gets my skin clean without drying it out or irritating it. Leaves my skin glowy, bouncy, and calm. I’m so happy. This is the first product in a long time that has made me want to hoard multiple tubes in case something happens and I can’t buy it anymore.

title: Perfect for sensitive skin, leaves skin glowy
detailedReviews 13: content: I recently bought several of these products. I was looking for a new cleanser and have typically used something with gentle exfoliation both morning and night. When this product came, I was extremely skeptical. However I have just fallen in love with it. It feels so silky, satiny smooth when applied to my face. It doesn't soak in but allows for me to really move it around for several minutes and just luxuriate in the sensation of my fingers Gliding Over My Skin. And Then followed by a nice rinse with lukewarm water and it has perfectly set the tone for everything else to follow. Who would have thought? This is an amazing product. And let me clarify by saying I'm not a twenties something young woman but rather on the precipice of 60 and I have tried it all. And I certainly am not talking economical skin care but rather the things one purchases in a spa , such as Neo Cutis and ZO skin health . I'm used to paying up to $400 for a month of skin care but had heard so much about these products that I thought given their price, I had nothing to lose . I cannot tell you enough just how impressed I am . This is hands down my most favorite. Thank you

title: Silky smooth, amazing for mature skin
detailedReviews 14: content: I'll start with my skin type: extreme combo. I am very acne-prone and have trouble with clogged pores (blackheads on nose/chin). My skin gets extremely flaky/dry with most cleansers though, which is equally as frustrating. Oh and I'm 24 years old.
I have tried foaming cleansers made for oily skin, those stripped me horribly. I've tried gentle cremé cleansers, which never felt purifying. I've tried oil-based cleansers including Averr Aglow, and they worked the best even though I'd feel a bit too much oil left behind if I didn't wipe excess away with a hot washcloth. Oh also I had to remove every speck of makeup before using ANY of my cleansers!
I was excited but skeptical to try this cleanser because of the affordable price. I've been using it for two months now, morning and night. It is a PERFECT cleanser. It cleans deep into my pores and wipes away my foundation easily (I remove eye makeup prior). It rinses off completely clean as long as I properly warmed it: rub vigorously between palms until that magic transformation from balm to oil. My skin feels perfectly clean without being stripped. Not one bit of dry skin after using it.
I wanted to wait the full 2 months to write a review so it could be as honest as possible and help you decide whether it's a good product (it's AMAZING).
I am absolutely addicted to Deciem products, TBH. Since I discovered it 2 months ago, I've not purchased any other brands of ANY skincare.

title: Perfect cleanser for combo, acne-prone skin
detailedReviews 15: content: I have to admit that when I saw The Ordinary Squalene cleanser I had completely overlooked that this is in fact a two in one product! It is a cleanser and a makeup remover! At first,it appears to be similar to a lotion consistency. After it adapts to your body temperature it becomes more like an oil. I am so use to a cleanser sudsing up, so needless to say this product felt like it was playing a mind trick on me. The formula is gentle and not at all irritating. I have sensitive skin and it was not bothersome at all. Being non-comedogenic it is safe for daily use.Plus, it is safe for all skin types. I simply applied about a dime size amount of the product, warmed it in my hands and applied it to my face.Easily remove the product with warm water. A gentle cleanser that really doesn't require a lot of water if at all. If you are the outdoorsy type and feel like you need to clean sweat or dirt from your face you could easily use this Squalene cleanser along with a facial wipe afterwards to remove the product.Just my two cents. The product supports your skin barrier and adds hydration. My skin felt smooth and moisturuzed after use. I am a fan.

title: Gentle, non-irritating, good for sensitive skin
detailedReviews 16: content: During this season, I've been really focused on my skincare routine and sticking to it. I like to switch up my products throughout the week, especially my face washes. I rarely use the same few products every day because I'm in the process of building a new skincare routine. My last products expired, and my skin has changed over the years. I can't say that I use this product daily as a stand-alone face wash, but I can say that I really enjoy the experience when I do use it. This face wash is gentle and safe for all skin types. It has great ingredients and comes highly recommended by several popular dermatologists. When I need to wash off sunscreen or on those rare days when I wear makeup, I start with a basic micellar wash using a cotton round, and then I follow up with this cleanser. It might be strong enough to use alone to wash off sunscreen, but I haven't tried it yet. I have sensitive skin, and trying new products can be a little intimidating for me. I highly recommend this product and will definitely repurchase it.

detailedReviews 17: content: The Ordinary Squalene Cleanser threw me for a loop! It looks like a lotion ,but warms to an oil with your body temperature. A gentle cleanser that is safe for all skin types. I have sensitive skin and this felt calming to my skin. I found that about a dime size amount of the product was sufficient for me. I was surprised how well it removed my makeup and it didn't irritate or sting my eyes. My skin felt hydrated and smooth after use. Honestly, I could see this being a great item for people that want something to take on the road. Yes, after applying the product the brand recommends rinsing off with warm water.However, if you camp or if you are in a pinch you could easily use the Squalene Cleanser to clean your face and use a facial wipe to remove any remaining product. No water? No problem. I like that the product does not have fragrance,alcohol, gluten, parabens or sulfates. This two in one product certainly surprised me and my skin is loving it!

Just a small amount is all that is needed to give you a lovely clean and soft finish, ready for my serum routine. The cream is removed with water and even takes off make and mascara etc.
I tried the small size first and was so impressed that I went on to order the large size for home use and the small one for travelling.
I would never go back to using anything other than Squaline.
Another product in The Ordinary range of skincare that I would highly recommend. Not only is it an excellent cleanser, the price makes it excellent value for money too.

detailedReviews 19: content: I struggle with dry skin and tend to have trouble when using foaming cleansers as they make my skin feel tight and dry but this cleanser has been the one that has really helped make my skin feel hydrated and not stripped! A little goes a long way when you emulsify it with water. I sometimes apply to dry skin and add my exfoliant powder to it and add water to emulsify it. While it feels somewhat oily going on my dry skin, it doesnt leave my skin feeling greasy after. I have not broken out from it like other moisturizing/hydrating cleansers! Have bought this many times and will continue. I use this and then apply Thayers Toner, The 6 Peptide Skin Booster, Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid and lastly their 100% Plant-Derived Squalane and my skin feels hydrated and clean!

title: Helped dry skin, not stripping
detailedReviews 20: content: I first bought this cleanser as I'd read that Squalane is good for helping to calm rosecea. Having used it for around a year now, I've also tried several other The Ordinary products alongside it and for me I think that using the cleanser once or twice a day alongside The Ordinary's 2% hyaluronic acid with B5 has made a big difference in reducing overall redness and reducing the instances of rosecea flare ups for me. The only other product I usenow is a basic factor 50 sunscreen during the day.
This cleaner is easy to apply, it works similar to a balm in that you rub it between your hands to activate before applying to the face, and washes off easily. I will continue to buy this as its a lovely product that really works well.

detailedReviews 21: content: The best Period! I have tried more expensive brands such as DHC. I was so fond of DHC and re-ordered it several times. I just disliked how it created like a film no matter how I kept my eye closed and rinsed it well before patting them dry. Still felt a "moisturizing" residue which I followed with the mild soap I had from acne. org. Until I tried this one in their smaller size tube. I love it, been careful not using much cause the way it goes it is kind of the same price if compared to DHC you need like 2 pea size cream to get the job done so it's in no way cheaper BUT BUT BUT! wow! I use one big pea size on dry make up w sunscreen massage it through my eye mascara and all over the face while dry, it turns from cream to oil texture, then splash water and massage some more, rinse.. NO residue what so ever face feels clean but not tight stripped of moisture. I then follow with my gentle cleanser. I got their foamy cleanser from the ordinary (big size for the price) love it too. and that's it! all is good! My skin is combo and can easily break out. No break outs. Writing this review cause back to order their big tube. Still I think is pricy for the amount... It's for everyday make up and sunscreen removal so will likely go through their big tube in no time. Love TO products and their superb quality!

title: Best cleanser, removes makeup without residue
detailedReviews 22: content: The first time I tried this cleanser, I freaked. It was like rubbing strait olive oil on my face. Like howwww is this gonna get all my makeup off, let alone actually cleanse my skin?! But I was WRONG! Once you get past the lack of lather that you’re likely used to, you’ll see that this cleanser is nothing short of amazing! It really is great at removing all my makeup in one wash, and it doesn’t dry out my skin like most cleansers do. One review I read said to apply and rub on your dry face as directed, let it warm to the oily texture, then wet your hands and continue to massage your face. The small amount of water should turn the cleanser into a white milky texture, this is where it really helps with the makeup removal for me. Then rinse like normal! Highly recommend this cleanser! I follow it up with the glycolic acid toner (at night only), niacinimide, vitamin c serum, multi-peptide eye serum, and the natural moisturizer and am very happy with the results I’ve had in just over a month!

Initially, I wondered if it was even effective, but it's helped keep my skin clear despite my hormonal acne and works well with my other skincare products. I use it at night after a cleansing oil or on its own in the mornings. It's especially nice to use after a workout because it cleanses without drying out my skin. I don't have any negative comments. Although I was initially surprised by its small size of the mini compared to some deluxe samples. However, I think the full size is a great amount of product for the price and I plan to keep this product on hand. It's impressive to get such a high-quality, sensitive-skin-friendly product at such an affordable price.

I like that it’s an oil base once massaged into skin as it becomes very hydrating for my skin and makes my skin feel so much softer and fresh! I recommend this to everyone who struggles with their skin or are just starting out their skincare journey.

It is great for a first cleanse to remove all make up though if I use a micellar water first then the cleanser absolutely no traces of make up is left and my face is so clean.

I first became aware of cleanser after seeing celebrity/editorial make-up artist Katie Jane Hughes recommend it. Anyone who follows Katie knows that she is never wrong with product recommendations and she certainly wasn’t wrong about this one! I’ll always re-purchase.

title: Removes makeup like magic, no irritation
detailedReviews 27: content: A light white cream. The consistency is somewhat reminiscent of hair conditioner. It does not have a pronounced aroma, only a slight smell of oil is felt.
So, we have an excellent delicate skin cleanser. Gentle surfactants and the absence of fragrances (including those based on essential oils) make it ideal for sensitive skin. The product is indeed based on squalane oil, as well as other moisturizers and emollients, so it is ideal for dry skin. The pH level seems to be neutral (the malic acid at the very end of the list most likely serves as a preservative).
After washing, there is no film or tightness on the face. Everything about it is perfect.
So my verdict is this: if you are looking for a good delicate but effective face wash for the first step, this is a great option.

detailedReviews 28: content: I cannot say enough good things about this product. It removes my makeup well, leaves skin soft and happy, doesn’t smell like anything. I live in a dry climate so most cleaners strip my skin. I didn’t like it at first because I didn’t think it was doing anything. I re-read the instructions and found it to be user error. You are supposed to melt it in your hands and then put it on dry skin, massaging for a bit. Then a bit of water to emulsify and keep massaging. It rinses away quickly so you do not want to drench your face.

title: Removes makeup, leaves skin soft and happy
detailedReviews 29: content: I’m 52 and this is THE BEST cleanser I have ever used!!!
There’s something very satisfying about feeling the product suddenly turn to oil after rubbing between your palms, and unlike most other cleansers there’s no faffing around and getting bubbles in your eyes and up your nose, you can simply rub it on in front of the mirror and see that you’re covering every nook and cranny, then remove with warm water, although I remove it by first pressing a hot flannel on my face, rinsing it in warm water and wiping it off. My skin feels so refreshed that I look forward to using it when I wake up, and before bed. The pic is from as use in the morning before applying serums, I’m so proud of my skin now ❤️

title: Best cleanser ever, skin feels refreshed
detailedReviews 30: content: Overall, I would like to emphasize the following: ✔ Easy to use, but it has a considerable consumption; ✔ Effectively cleanses the skin, pores, and removes any makeup; ✔ Does not dry out the skin, but rather moisturizes it; ✔ Does not sting the eyes, leaves no film, and does not provoke breakouts. And, essentially, the main reason why I try to use such products regularly. They excellently push out dirt from the pores, and I've been having issues with that lately. It works something like this: the squalane in our Squalane Cleanser literally dissolves the oil from the pores, along with the dirt. Then, everything is easily rinsed away. With regular use, I have indeed noticed changes. If I skip this step in my skincare routine, my pores are not as clean.

detailedReviews 31: content: This was gifted by theordinary as complimentary in exchange of a review. The ordinary squalane cleanser is fragrance free which makes it wonderful for sensitive skin. You can use it as a face cleanser and as a makeup remover. It does an amazing job cleaning my face and makeup. It also leaves my skin moisturized and super clean. You apply it on your hands and rub it until it becomes oil then apply it to face as a face cleanser. Afterwards you wash your face with water. I recommend it.

At 57, my skin has started losing its natural glow, and this is such an affordable way to add moisture back while also removing makeup. It’s an easy, no-fuss addition to my routine.
P.S. I bought this myself, and I don’t usually write reviews, only when something is truly worth it.

To use - I rub it in my hands to warm it up and when it becomes oily, I apply it to dry skin, rub it all over and then rinse off with warm water. I then take a wet muslin cloth and wipe away any remaining cleanser. The Squalane Cleanser doesn't make your skin feel dry or itchy even though you're using water to cleanse. ! It makes your skin feel cleansed without stripping. ! I follow with Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting Liquid Exfoiliant, Niacinamide serum and moisturiser. It's a really good cleanser, great for oily, combination skin, it helps to clear the skin without stripping. ! This is the second time I've purchased this and I will be buying again.

detailedReviews 35: content: What on earth is going on with The Ordinary's prices? The 150ML size came out a few years ago for $18. Fast-forward two years; the same product, same size, but now I have to pay $26? I love using this product as the first step in my facial double-cleanse routine in the evenings. It removes makeup and sunscreen effectively and doesn't irritate my eyes or leave a film on the skin after removal. The basic nature of the ingredients doesn't justify the price hike, and this product isn't equal to higher-priced cleansers that include a lot more beneficial ingredients. If the price hike continues I'll spend my money on a more sophisticated cleansing product instead.

It takes off all of my makeup (even mascara) and leaves my skin hydrated. Then I go in with another cleanser to remove any additional impurities to prep my skin for other actives. I only use the Squalene cleanser alone if I don’t wear makeup that day. It’s a wonderful cleanser. Highly recommend!

detailedReviews 37: content: Ive nearly panned this product. While I wont be seeking it out, I would happily use this again in a pinch. I have very reactive combo skin and I needed something that wasn't super stripping, but properly cleansed everything. The reason I don't prefer this cleanser is because, while I acknowledge I dont need to achieve a lather to get a clean face, for me personally, even having a little lathering helps everything feel very clean. I would use this product for oil pulling/double cleansing. This product is perfectly functional and effective for its price point. I'd recommend it for anyone looking for a cheap, effective, makeup-removing oil cleanser, or even younger people looking to explore skincare more and establish a routine.

It’s not super foamy or squeaky clean (which I prefer), but if you wear a lot of makeup, you might want to double cleanse. For everyday use and for my dry skin, though, this is honestly one of the best cleansers I’ve tried.

title: Removes mascara without rubbing, travel friendly
detailedReviews 53: content: I have oily skin that quickly becomes dry after the second day. I was never able to clean my face consistently, because if I did it more than once every three days, I'd break out with millia. If I did it any less than that, I would break out from regular acne. It was a struggle to find anything that worked on my skin.
I got a small bottle of this after talking to a dermatologist about my skins sensitivity, and it's honestly the best thing I've ever used. My skin comes away feeling actually fresh and clean, and it doesn't leave behind dead or flaky skin like regular soaps do.
Although the instructions say to melt it for 30 seconds in your hands, I only rub it for maybe 5 to 10 before applying it. Then I melt it the rest of the way on my face, and it works perfectly. I find I only ever need a quarter or half dollar sized amazing. The small bottle lasted me a month, which is reasonable, and it definitely removed every last trace of makeup on my skin. I recommend using it right as you're getting in the shower and washing it off in there, because like any cleanser, it can be messy to remove.
I haven't had a breakout of either acne or millia since I started using this. I've also been able to clean my skin almost every day since switching over, which is shocking improvement for me.

title: Gentle, removes grime and makeup
detailedReviews 56: content: This is the essential first step of my daily double cleanse routine for the last few years. Oil cleansing seems to be the only way I can gently and effectively get the mineral SPF off my face every night (and sometimes a bit of makeup). Then, a gentle traditional cleanser actually gets my very oily but sometimes flakey and acne prone face clean. I’ve tried so many oil cleansers, this one is far better than everything else. It cleans my face of SPF, oil, sweat, and sometimes light makeup, is not messy to use, rinses off well enough with water so that my regular cleanser can do its job, and my skin has never looked better with this as the first step in my routine. I sometimes use only this cleanser and no other products at night, and my skin is still happy the next morning. I also appreciate the screw top squeeze tube packaging. Pop tops risk making a mess during my frequent traveling, and I dislike product that comes in a “pot” that you dip out with your finger or tiny spatula. Product exposed to the air like that so often is hard to keep fresh and uncontaminated. I dislike rubbing unwanted bacteria all over my face. I wish it came in a 100ml size, that largest TSA approved size. I buy the 150ml for home, and then lots of little 50ml bottles. If it came in 100ml, I would buy only that size.

I squeeze a dime sized dot into my hands and warm it up, then gently press my hands to my face with my fingertips on my eyelids for a few seconds, then glide and smooth it on the rest of my face. When I get back to my eye area, my mascara has dissolved into nothing without scrubbing or rubbing. It doesn't slide into my eyes like most oily cleansers, blurring my vision. Then add a bit of water, polish my skin a bit and rinse with just water or a soft washcloth. Simple, easy, and gentle perfection. And hello...you can't knock squalane for the skin. I took one star off because my tube came with very little product inside, but enough for testing purposes. I will buy the larger size, but never again this travel size. The amount of product might be enough for a weekend, but not much more.

title: Dissolves mascara without scrubbing or irritation
detailedReviews 60: content: Externally, the balm is very similar to milk or emulsion. It has a semi-liquid consistency, the texture is really quite saturated, white in color.
The aroma is light, personally it reminds me a lot of the smell of coconut oil. Since I immediately decided to use this balm in the morning, then I expect from him, in addition to gentle cleansing of the skin, good moisturizing. So, I apply a small amount of balm on wet skin. Then I distribute it on the face and neck with light massage movements. The balm does not foam, it quickly turns into oil. Then I wash it off with warm water. Feelings during washing with balm are very pleasant. It works really delicately, very gently, it's just that what I need during morning care. After washing with balm, the skin becomes soft, moisturized, there is no greasy shine, at the same time, there is no feeling of tightness of the skin, which sometimes occurs when using other cleaning products. what's more, even if I don't immediately apply the following care products, the skin continues to remain soft and moisturized. This balm is also great for removing makeup. In general, the balm turned out to be very pleasant and comfortable, it works great on the skin, really doesn't dry her out at all. Therefore, I can fully recommend

detailedReviews 61: content: I’ve been using this cleanser on and off in the evening for a few years now and am so glad it’s available in a larger size than when first launched. It’s rich and creamy to use, feels very luxurious and deeply cleanses while hydrating. Love squalane and its inclusion here delivers what you’d expect from his hero ingredient. The packaging makes this cleanser great for travelling, especially if your mode of transport saps the hydration from your face and body (yes it’s great on dry arms and legs and the price-point allows this only mildly guilty pleasure). I’ve found it less useful after workouts or in hot countries as my skin benefits most using this directly on dry skin, I don’t get the same great results on damp skin but this is likely to be more of a personal preference.

It cleanses well and removes most of my makeup, but sometimes my waterproof mascara clings on. I wish the size was larger because every day use will empty it quickly, but I’m happy it’s not overly expensive so it’s easy to repurchase without budgeting for. Overall, it performs well and does what it says it will, so I’m happy with it and would repurchase after using up!

title: Swollen eyes and itching after use
detailedReviews 64: content: Listen, I’ve been an ordinary girly since Covid. I can definitely say this cleanser has helped me through thick and thin.
Not so long ago I tried transitioning to another skincare line, however I found myself returning back and staying loyal to this product. Especially for you Muslim girlies with dry skin throughout the year but oily during Ramadan Fast, THIS CLEANSER IS FOR YOU. I cannot express how this cleanser saved my butt. Especially with grad photos coming up this cleanser did me good. Anyways from one muslima to another, this cleanser is worth the hype

detailedReviews 65: content: am really excited about this gifted cleanser from The Ordinary and Skeepers. This melted the sunscreen I added through the day. I have not been using the product long enough to say, whether it has changed dramatically or not. However, I love the way it feels on my skin and the soft feeling of my skin after washing my face (even after a double cleanse). My skin feels hydrated, which I definitely appreciate during the summertime. I will continue to use this and I'm excited for some results. Not to mention the great price point of The Ordinary products.

title: Melted sunscreen, feels soft after use
detailedReviews 66: content: I bought a small bottle about 3 months ago and I really love this cleanser, however...
Why did it start to smell so bad? After about 2 months it started to smell like a mixture between wet dog and vomit. It hasn't been exposed to any high or low temperatures and is well within its valid timeframe. I'm not the first person to say this, there is a reddit chain all about it and all the comments span from the past 5 months or so with the small bottle. Was this a bad batch? I noticed it has made my skin breakout badly over the past 2 weeks so I bought another bottle as this was never an issue before.

detailedReviews 67: content: I thought I received a defective bottle because there’s almost no product in it. It’s like trying to get the tail end out of the ketchup bottle. Now I see all the reviews complaining about the same thing FOR YEARS. Bad design. Leaves customers disappointed and feeling cheated. Why is it packaged this way? And why hasn’t it been changed by now? The product itself is nice. But having to rub it in your palms to melt it first, wastes some of it. Better to apply to face directly.

title: Packaging issue, little product in bottle
detailedReviews 68: content: The Ordinary’s Squalane Cleanser is a dual action, lightweight balm that melts into an oil consistency to gently breakdown and dissolve makeup, dirt, and oil from the skin without leaving it dry and stripped. Key Ingredients: - Squalane helps restore the proper balance of natural oils in the skin - Glycerin replenishes and restores the skin by drawing and locking in moisture - Vitamin E (Tocopherol) antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that protects the skin against environmental stressors while conditioning and soothing This starts off with a creamy, balm-like texture that turns into an oil when rubbed between fingers or when applied to face. It emulsifies somewhat but not as well as some other cleansing balms/oils. I like that it’s fragrance free but there is a slight scent from the ingredients. This hasn’t caused any irritation to my skin and leaves my skin feeling hydrated/moisturized. Skin always feels soft after every use and not tight. It does remove light coverage makeup up but find that it doesn’t completely remove my spf and leaves behind a slight film on my skin. If you have acne prone skin I would would definitely use this as a first cleanse only. I will say half the tube fills like air, which is disappointing. To be honest I’m not real sure how I feel about it, don’t really see the hype. Worth a shot to try for all skin types. PROS: ✅ Fragrance Free ✅ Does not irritate or strip my skin ✅ Hydrating/Moisturizing ✅ Leaves skin feeling soft after use ✅ Removes light coverage makeup well ✅ Decent first cleanse product ✅ Affordable CONS: ❌ Half the tube feels like it’s just air ❌ Doesn’t work well as a stand alone cleanser as it doesn’t remove all my sunscreen ❌ Leaves a slight film on skin ❌ Depending on the tube you get sometimes it doesn’t turn into an oil easily and it’s hard to spread across face ❌ Stings my eyes. It’s marketed as a makeup remover but I wouldn’t use to remove eye makeup

title: Mini size lasted only a week
detailedReviews 70: content: I wasn't sure what to expect, as I have had both good and bad results with The Ordinary. First the smell. Almost a bit plastic-y, but that is okay, as I like plastic. It comes out, no liquid texture, so that is a plus as well. It lathers well and is easy to rinse off.
The only issue that I noticed, is that my face felt 2 sensations or feelings, I have never noticed before.
The first: I felt like my skin still had product on it. So I tried to rinise it off some more, as I was sure I was very thorough. But it still felt as if I had product on my face. Even after 5 more splashes. Weird.
The second: My face felt too cleansed or overly stripped. I did not like this sensation. It was still realing from the product on the face feeling, and it felt over washed. I am not prone to oily skin and I believe this is for oily skin.
Overall, I am not that impressed. I am so sorry Ordinary, as you generally make great products, this time it is a no go for me!

title: Felt like product residue, overly stripped
detailedReviews 71: content: How the brand offers to use the product - squeeze a small amount on DRY hands, rub, warm it up so that it melts. Then apply to a DRY face and massage until the makeup dissolves, then rinse with warm water. Or if you are without makeup, then be guided by yourself how you feel the feeling of cleanliness. It is important to work on dry, because it is a classic hydrophilic oil, just in the form of a balm, and when you add water, it will begin to emulsify into milk. Accordingly, it just won’t have time to work properly. Actually, I use it as the brand offers. In the evening, before the shower, I take off their makeup, massage for about a minute, then gradually add water and rinse. It emulsifies well, does not leave behind the film, washes off completely quickly. After that, I still always use gel or foam for washing, I’m an adept of double washing in any case. Sometimes it leaves a feeling of tightness, but so rarely that it seems to me that water is to blame for it. More often I notice that after rinsing with water, the skin is very soft, as if nourished and moisturized. Probably, the squalane in the first place of the ingredients does its own. During the month of use, I did not score pores, did not cause any negative reactions. Makeup, and most importantly, sunscreen, shoots with a bang, again I focus on clean pores. The balm has a very dense texture, it’s not for nothing that the brand tells us to rub it in our palms first, lay down to warm it up to melt. If you do not do this, but bang immediately on the face, the sensations will not be pleasant, the skin will definitely be pulled and distributed for high-quality cleansing will be very difficult.

title: Emulsifies well, leaves skin soft
detailedReviews 72: content: I bought the smaller bottle. I wanted to test out the product on my sensitive, dry skin before committing to the larger bottle. The very first time I used it was like trying to squeeze ketchup out of a nearly empty bottle: no action. This bottle, brand new, straight out of the box with unbroken seal, comes over half empty. I understand the volume is listed on the bottle, but why not put it in a bottle that more accurately represents the amount of product it contains? Less consumer dissatisfaction & better for the planet.
As for my skin, I think the product will be suitable. I've only used it once so far, and haven't experienced any negative reaction. Will update if anything changes in the next few days.

detailedReviews 73: content: It is a great cleanser. It naked my skin clean. I find it a bit difficult to use, because it does not become completely soapy. That makes you have to keep using enough water. I personally get a suffocating feeling from that. That made me not buy it again after the tester. In addition, I think that with my skin (skin with a sebum overproduction and combination skin) I can use more effective cleansers. Not quite a fit.

detailedReviews 75: content: I was gifted by theordinary this Squalene Cleanser for my honest review and feedback.
I generally have good outcomes (we will say 3.5 times out of 5 times) with The Ordinary's products and I have heard great things about this cleanser. So I was excited to try this.
First thing! The smell, a little bit like plastic but not like plastic. I liked the smell, but can see how it could be off-putting to those bothered by "unique" smells. Definitely not flowery. But, I did not mind it at all.
It came out of the tube, like you would expect, not watery, but not a solid, a happy medium. I used an amount equal to a little bigger than 1/4- 1/3 of a dime size and it was enough for my face. It went on with no problem and lathered well. No tingling, or burning. No unpleasant sensations. No pleasant sensations. Just doing its job.
The rinse. Well, I thought it was easy. Like a few normal splashes to the face. However, when I got done and got out, I realized my face felt like it still had residue on it. So I splashed again. Nope, a few more times. By now, I was convinced I had washed it off my face. I realized that my faced was OVER washed. This has never happened that I have recalled.
Whats a girl to do? Well, I pulled out my best moisterizer and doubled up for the night. My face felt tight and I did not like this one bit.
Overall, it cleaned my face TOO much. This would be great for oily skin, mine is not. Sorry The Ordinary!

title: Cleaned face too much, not for dry skin
detailedReviews 76: content: So, firstly, I did not do my research on Squalane. Your face naturally produces squalene to moisturize your face, but it traps oils in your pores. Squalane is a processed version of this.
This product IS comedogenic. It will cause a horrible breakout, it has to me in less than a week. There's no active ingredients to actually cleanse your face. If you do use it, use a water based cleanser after to get the squalane out of your pores.

It’s semi silky and semi moist anyways but yes and it absorbs very quickly which is nice. You don’t need a ton it spreads very easily and does not leave any residue or greasy feeling behind it dries down fairly quickly after absorbing and leaves the skin very soft and smooth I love running my fingers across my face after. I really enjoy this and you can’t beat the price am definitely going to be picking up a few of the larger size. I struggled with dry skin for a long time and the ordinary products, the peeling solution and the oils have completely turned that around so although I can say now this moisturizer works great for me I’m not sure how it would work for someone with dehydrated skin like I had before but because it’s so affordable I would defini

title: Absorbs quickly, leaves skin soft
detailedReviews 78: content: This was gifted by theordinary and these are my first impressions.
I'm not a fan of ineffective skincare and it's hype. I have combination skin with oily t-zone and I'm normal to dry on the rest of my face. When it comes to cleansing, I prefer cleansing oils and balms. I have my holy grail cleansing balms. But I'm still looking for my cleansing oils with little luck.
I hoped this Squalane cleansing oil might be it. Sadly, it's not. I still have visible eye makeup even after 3 cleanses. My balms get my makeup in 1 attempt. My other oil cleansers in under 2 attempts. I also find it's stripping after one cleanse. I had really hoped it wouldn't be stripping.
If you're a double or triple cleanser this might be for you.

detailedReviews 80: content: Loved this as a makeup remover. I am a double washer when I wear makeup. I start with a makeup wipe and then usually follow with Clinique foaming makeup remover. When I ran out, I thought I would try this since I love other Ordinary products. I was hesitant based on the feedback but realized people must read the directions. You have to run this cleaners in your hands first and watch it melt into an oil like cleanser, then rub into a dry face. It feels great going on (hydrating),but I honestly didn’t think it was removing my makeup. After rinsing off, I followed with the Ordinary toner and the pad was completely clean, no trace of makeup. Yes I will definitely purchase the full size when I run out.

My skin hurt like i had a sunburn afterwards. I am prob in the minuscule percentage of people who have a sensitivity to something in it and would have this reaction. If you are on the fence try it, yiu might love it.

I do not wear makeup so can not really say much for that, but I think it may do well as the first or second wash just because it definitely feels thicker than most of the cleaning products I have used on my face. Probably because of the squalene, so an oil base is usually good for makeup removal. I use to wear makeup years ago.

title: Moisturized and clean, no lather
detailedReviews 84: content: I recently popped into my local Ulta in search of a cleanser to help clear up intense maskne that my face has acquired over the past year. I have minorly sensitive, majorly dry skin that is usually clear and soft; however, wearing masks for 10+ hours a day has created a lot of redness and acne. Upon learning my skincare concerns and routine, a helpful beauty consultant immediately walked me over to check out products from The Ordinary. She said this cleanser should help clear things up in a few days, and also recommend some supplemental serums (Alpha Arbutin and Niacinamide + Zinc) to utilize in conjunction with the cleanser. I have been using this cleanser and both serums in the AM and PM for 7 days now and notice zero change in my skin; in fact, I believe these products are further drying out my already sensitive skin. After applying to dry skin and completely washing off the cleanser with warm water, my face is craving my moisturizer before I even open the bottles to both serums. I've read that some use this as a double cleanser; however, the product does not market itself as a two-step product. Additionally, the consultant told me this could be used on its own. Per recommendation from her, I mix two drops of each serum into my fingertips before applying the products over my freshly cleaned face. My skin is left super dry, thirsting for my moisturizer immediately. I also noticed that my pores appear larger and I'm experiencing more localized breakouts where maskne is already present (around the mouth, on either side of the nose, and the middle of both cheeks). I understand it takes time for new products to settle and become effective; after a full week, I'm just not really feeling these products for my skin at the moment. It's a very basic, ordinary cleanser that does indeed remove makeup and cleanse the skin. Consider double cleansing or solely using this product for thorough makeup removal.

title: Unpleasant smell, hard to wash off
detailedReviews 86: content: So, I used this product daily at night for a bout two months and loved it. It really does get makeup off great and you almost don't even need a second cleanse it works that well at getting the makeup and oil/dirt off. But I started noticing I was getting a lot of inflammation in my face after cleansing and throughout the day. I had added The Ordinary Retinol into my skincare routine once a week and applied it after my moisturizer just to make sure my skin could adapt to it for a bit since I heard it can be an irritating active. When I noticed the inflammation and redness I pulled it out immediately and I also pulled my toner (CareCella) and Serum (InnisTree) from my routine to see if those could be causing the rash but the rash was still popping up, especially at night. My moisturizers, eye cream (which has retinol too), sunscreen, and gentle morning cleanser I've been using for a very long time with no reaction so I know the irritation wasn't coming from them. So that left me with this Squalene cleanser and I noticed my inflammation was getting worse and worse specifically after using this cleanser even when I took all other actives and products that could be causing inflammation out for days/weeks. I even took the eye cream out. Anyways I'm back to just using a gentle cleanser (CeraVe) for right now and have been introducing some of my actives back and I'm having no issues. I'm not sure why I developed that reaction to the cleanser but I've seen a few other reviews of people saying they got a rash or breakouts too so idk. Also, even though its a cheap product it really doesn't last too long if you use it daily so its not really that great of a price. You have to buy a new one every two to four weeks depending on how much you use. I'd rather do the FirstAid cleanser for $24 that lasts me several months and gives me no irritation and I've used for years. So much for going with the trend haha.

PS, I PUSH/ADVOCATE for Ordinary products every chance I get.Even in cosmetic stores,at the mall etc,when I'm trying to be sold other skin products.I start talking to people in the stores that will ask me what brand I'm talking about lol,Especially my family members a few are still paying $40 & up(Which I was guilty of but soon they will switch to the winning team lol) the products aren't even close to the results I have seen with Ody, being cruelty free & almost totally oil free is a +! But I have realized that most oil free claimed products will still contain a form of oil, mainly castor or shark oil so I have accepted it. I look in to amount of oil now over non existent. Anyway I really look younger than some of my sister's that are 7yrs + younger than me now :) *PLEASE DONT STOP PRODUCING QUALITY PRODUCTS & PLEASE KEEP THEM AFFORDABLE!

detailedReviews 92: content: This product is very interesting because it transforms from a cream to an oil in your hands. Additionally you apply it on dry skin and it doesn’t foam up which I wasn’t used to at all. Certainly a learning curve.
I like that it doesn’t have any added fragrance and it’s cruelty-free. It didn’t break me out or irritated my skin. It didn’t sting my eyes.
My skin suffers from congestion and is oily. It also tends to breakouts. I felt like I’ve had cleansers that did a more thorough job in cleaning my face. I guess, time will tell if it’s doing enough so I don’t wind up with a lot of pimples and blackheads.
I’m still undecided if I would purchase again in the future.

title: Skin looked worse, ingredients likely toxic
detailedReviews 94: content: I started using the Ordinary products about 4 months ago and they completely changed my skin, they helped more than anything I had ever tried before. Everyone commented on how amazing my skin looked.
The flaky dryness disappeared, I had less blackheads and my hormones didn't affect my skin as much.
I recently brought this in a large size as well as the moisturiser and I don't know if it is me or something is different with the product, but my skin is back to flakey and dry. I never had any sensitivity issues with the products, but now the cleanser feels like it burns, my skin feels sore and the products don't feel like they are working.
I also feel like the moisturiser burns, and it was my favourite product ever, so im gutted. My skin hurts all day.
I don't know if I'm meant to push through and it's some form of purge my skin is doing or if out of nowhere my skin has decided the products no longer work?
People are still commenting that my skin is glowing for the most part if they aren't to close to my forehead, but the cleanser isn't meant to hurt right?
Can you get a sensitivity to something out of nowhere?
I would definitely tell people to try these products as when they work for you it's fantastic, I think the issue is me at this point which sucks.

title: Skin became flaky, dry, and sore
detailedReviews 95: content: I have always been a very big cleanser girl but, sadly I have to say this might be one of my least favorite cleansers. It felt very weird on the face and it was very hard to wash off, I also wish that there was a bigger size because I had to repurchase this 5 times in 2 months. It did leave my face feeling very clean! Another thing I didn't really like was the fact that it didn't lather, I feel like it didn't really get into my pores. This product could definitely be better but, I know there are people out there that have had a much better experience than me! You'll find out once you buy it! Overall there is room for improvement but, I feel that this does have a lot of potential and this could be a really good cleanser!

title: Hard to wash off, didn't lather
detailedReviews 96: content: With this cleanser, I find that emulsifying it between your hands first doesn’t give me the best results. So, I have to actually apply it to my dry face and then rub it in. You do have d to rinse your face quite a bit, to get the oily residue off. I don’t recommend using this product only to cleanse your face with and then proceeding with your normal skincare products in the AM or PM. Just using this cleanser alone is not going to get your skin 100% clean (whether you happen to be wearing makeup or not). Which is why, you will need to follow up with your favorite cleanser of choice afterwards in order to do a second cleansing. I definitely don’t use this cleanser on a regular basis, only when I desire to. Also, I must say, it would have been good if the company came out with a much bigger size to start off with, than what they currently have to offer. If you happen to use this cleanser on a regular basis, you will run out of it very, very quickly. Plus, if you wear heavy makeup, it will take alot of this stuff to get it off, which will require you to buy several tubes of this stuff at a time, just to make sure you don’t run out. I did receive this cleanser free with purchase, so I will use it up. I haven’t decided yet, if I will buy this stuff with my own money, in the future. It is okay to use, but it is honestly not an absolute must-have necessity in my skincare regimen all the time. However, I do like that it does not irritate my skin or my eye area either. And, the scent is very tolerable, so absolutely no problems with that.

title: Emulsifying doesn't give best results
detailedReviews 97: content: I'm very disappointed with how the parcel was packed. The bubble wrap was just a thin covering with most of the bubbles already popped, and the boxes inside were either torn or dented open. It's a miracle the products inside didn't break and spill.
When I checked the batch code online, the product was about 3yrs (June 2022) since manufacturing. I'm not sure how accurate this is, but it is concerning.
I did try it regardless of these red flags, luckily I didn't experience any irritation and my face felt soft. I did notice though that when applying to the face, following the instructions stated on the bottle of course, the product easily dries up while I'm still massaging my face and have to add a bit of water in my palms to continue rubbing my face.
Unfortunately, I won't be buying this particular product from this store again.

title: Poor packaging, product dried up quickly
detailedReviews 98: content: I was gifted this complimentary from The Ordinary in exchange for my honest review. This cleanser was not what I expected. When I first used it, I immediately noticed its oily texture. It didn’t foam up but it dissolved into my skin. It was very effective at removing all the dirt and grime and makeup from my face and it left my skin feeling soft and moisturized instead of stripped and dry like other cleansers. My problem is, I have very oily skin in my T-zone, especially around my nose and I suffer from hormonal acne. So, while this cleanser dissolved my makeup, I felt like I had to wash my face a second time in order for my nose area to feel clean. The 1.7 oz. size is perfect for travel. If you are in the market for a really nice makeup remover, I would suggest this.

detailedReviews 99: content: Good basic. I did like it but prefer Inkey List Oat Cleaning Balm for budget cleanser. I found the first few usages great but after that I wasn't feeling my skin was refreshed enough - could just be the ingredients a little too much for my skin type which does have open pores. I felt I wasn't getting all the product off. Shame as there were elements I liked, the price and texture and it wasn't drying (at 53 I'm getting dry patches due to perimenopause and thought I'd try a cleanser to help combat this). If you have dry skin you'll like this, but I'd avoid of you have breakout prone skin - there are other better cleansers to use. Sadly won't repurchase this.

detailedReviews 100: content: It is a great cleanser. It naked my skin clean. I find it a bit difficult to use, because it does not become completely soapy. That makes you have to keep using enough water. I personally get a suffocating feeling from that. That made me not buy it again after the tester. In addition, I think that with my skin (skin with a sebum overproduction and combination skin) I can use more effective cleansers. Not quite a fit.

title: Difficult to use, not a good fit
detailedReviews 101: content: So, I used this product daily at night for a bout two months and loved it. It really does get makeup off great and you almost don't even need a second cleanse it works that well at getting the makeup and oil/dirt off. But I started noticing I was getting a lot of inflammation in my face after cleansing and throughout the day. I had added The Ordinary Retinol into my skincare routine once a week and applied it after my moisturizer just to make sure my skin could adapt to it for a bit since I heard it can be an irritating active. When I noticed the inflammation and redness I pulled it out immediately and I also pulled my toner (CareCella) and Serum (InnisTree) from my routine to see if those could be causing the rash but the rash was still popping up, especially at night. My moisturizers, eye cream (which has retinol too), sunscreen, and gentle morning cleanser I've been using for a very long time with no reaction so I know the irritation wasn't coming from them. So that left me with this Squalene cleanser and I noticed my inflammation was getting worse and worse specifically after using this cleanser even when I took all other actives and products that could be causing inflammation out for days/weeks. I even took the eye cream out. Anyways I'm back to just using a gentle cleanser (CeraVe) for right now and have been introducing some of my actives back and I'm having no issues. I'm not sure why I developed that reaction to the cleanser but I've seen a few other reviews of people saying they got a rash or breakouts too so idk. Also, even though its a cheap product it really doesn't last too long if you use it daily so its not really that great of a price. You have to buy a new one every two to four weeks depending on how much you use. I'd rather do the FirstAid cleanser for $24 that lasts me several months and gives me no irritation and I've used for years. So much for going with the trend haha.

However, there’s been a formulation change than what was noted in the CAMPS (dermatology) app, and after my first use my eyes are swollen, and my face is itching and peeling in large flakes. I’m so disappointed, and in serious pain. I REALLY hope that The Ordinary can follow suit with other brands that are high quality and change the name and/or packaging, even slightly, to indicate any formula changes. The 1 in 4 people with contact allergens would be so appreciative.

Why did it start to smell so bad? After about 2 months it started to smell like a mixture between wet dog and vomit.

I'm not the first person to say this, there is a reddit chain all about it and all the comments span from the past 5 months or so with the small bottle. Was this a bad batch? I noticed it has made my skin breakout badly over the past 2 weeks so I bought another bottle as this was never an issue before.

title: Packaging issue, little product in bottle
detailedReviews 108: content: The Ordinary’s Squalane Cleanser is a dual action, lightweight balm that melts into an oil consistency to gently breakdown and dissolve makeup, dirt, and oil from the skin without leaving it dry and stripped. Key Ingredients: - Squalane helps restore the proper balance of natural oils in the skin - Glycerin replenishes and restores the skin by drawing and locking in moisture - Vitamin E (Tocopherol) antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that protects the skin against environmental stressors while conditioning and soothing This starts off with a creamy, balm-like texture that turns into an oil when rubbed between fingers or when applied to face. It emulsifies somewhat but not as well as some other cleansing balms/oils. I like that it’s fragrance free but there is a slight scent from the ingredients. This hasn’t caused any irritation to my skin and leaves my skin feeling hydrated/moisturized. Skin always feels soft after every use and not tight. It does remove light coverage makeup up but find that it doesn’t completely remove my spf and leaves behind a slight film on my skin. If you have acne prone skin I would would definitely use this as a first cleanse only. I will say half the tube fills like air, which is disappointing. To be honest I’m not real sure how I feel about it, don’t really see the hype. Worth a shot to try for all skin types. PROS: ✅ Fragrance Free ✅ Does not irritate or strip my skin ✅ Hydrating/Moisturizing ✅ Leaves skin feeling soft after use ✅ Removes light coverage makeup well ✅ Decent first cleanse product ✅ Affordable CONS: ❌ Half the tube feels like it’s just air ❌ Doesn’t work well as a stand alone cleanser as it doesn’t remove all my sunscreen ❌ Leaves a slight film on skin ❌ Depending on the tube you get sometimes it doesn’t turn into an oil easily and it’s hard to spread across face ❌ Stings my eyes. It’s marketed as a makeup remover but I wouldn’t use to remove eye makeup

detailedReviews 109: content: I wasn't sure what to expect, as I have had both good and bad results with The Ordinary. First the smell. Almost a bit plastic-y, but that is okay, as I like plastic. It comes out, no liquid texture, so that is a plus as well. It lathers well and is easy to rinse off.
The only issue that I noticed, is that my face felt 2 sensations or feelings, I have never noticed before.
The first: I felt like my skin still had product on it. So I tried to rinise it off some more, as I was sure I was very thorough. But it still felt as if I had product on my face. Even after 5 more splashes. Weird.
The second: My face felt too cleansed or overly stripped. I did not like this sensation. It was still realing from the product on the face feeling, and it felt over washed. I am not prone to oily skin and I believe this is for oily skin.
Overall, I am not that impressed. I am so sorry Ordinary, as you generally make great products, this time it is a no go for me!

I understand the volume is listed on the bottle, but why not put it in a bottle that more accurately represents the amount of product it contains? Less consumer dissatisfaction & better for the planet.
As for my skin, I think the product will be suitable. I've only used it once so far, and haven't experienced any negative reaction. Will update if anything changes in the next few days.

detailedReviews 112: content: I was gifted by theordinary this Squalene Cleanser for my honest review and feedback.
I generally have good outcomes (we will say 3.5 times out of 5 times) with The Ordinary's products and I have heard great things about this cleanser. So I was excited to try this.
First thing! The smell, a little bit like plastic but not like plastic. I liked the smell, but can see how it could be off-putting to those bothered by "unique" smells. Definitely not flowery. But, I did not mind it at all.
It came out of the tube, like you would expect, not watery, but not a solid, a happy medium. I used an amount equal to a little bigger than 1/4- 1/3 of a dime size and it was enough for my face. It went on with no problem and lathered well. No tingling, or burning. No unpleasant sensations. No pleasant sensations. Just doing its job.
The rinse. Well, I thought it was easy. Like a few normal splashes to the face. However, when I got done and got out, I realized my face felt like it still had residue on it. So I splashed again. Nope, a few more times. By now, I was convinced I had washed it off my face. I realized that my faced was OVER washed. This has never happened that I have recalled.
Whats a girl to do? Well, I pulled out my best moisterizer and doubled up for the night. My face felt tight and I did not like this one bit.
Overall, it cleaned my face TOO much. This would be great for oily skin, mine is not. Sorry The Ordinary!

detailedReviews 113: content: So, firstly, I did not do my research on Squalane. Your face naturally produces squalene to moisturize your face, but it traps oils in your pores. Squalane is a processed version of this.
This product IS comedogenic. It will cause a horrible breakout, it has to me in less than a week. There's no active ingredients to actually cleanse your face. If you do use it, use a water based cleanser after to get the squalane out of your pores.

detailedReviews 114: content: This was gifted by theordinary and these are my first impressions.
I'm not a fan of ineffective skincare and it's hype. I have combination skin with oily t-zone and I'm normal to dry on the rest of my face. When it comes to cleansing, I prefer cleansing oils and balms. I have my holy grail cleansing balms. But I'm still looking for my cleansing oils with little luck.
I hoped this Squalane cleansing oil might be it. Sadly, it's not. I still have visible eye makeup even after 3 cleanses. My balms get my makeup in 1 attempt. My other oil cleansers in under 2 attempts. I also find it's stripping after one cleanse. I had really hoped it wouldn't be stripping.
If you're a double or triple cleanser this might be for you.

title: Irritated skin, felt like sunburn
detailedReviews 117: content: I recently popped into my local Ulta in search of a cleanser to help clear up intense maskne that my face has acquired over the past year. I have minorly sensitive, majorly dry skin that is usually clear and soft; however, wearing masks for 10+ hours a day has created a lot of redness and acne. Upon learning my skincare concerns and routine, a helpful beauty consultant immediately walked me over to check out products from The Ordinary. She said this cleanser should help clear things up in a few days, and also recommend some supplemental serums (Alpha Arbutin and Niacinamide + Zinc) to utilize in conjunction with the cleanser. I have been using this cleanser and both serums in the AM and PM for 7 days now and notice zero change in my skin; in fact, I believe these products are further drying out my already sensitive skin. After applying to dry skin and completely washing off the cleanser with warm water, my face is craving my moisturizer before I even open the bottles to both serums. I've read that some use this as a double cleanser; however, the product does not market itself as a two-step product. Additionally, the consultant told me this could be used on its own. Per recommendation from her, I mix two drops of each serum into my fingertips before applying the products over my freshly cleaned face. My skin is left super dry, thirsting for my moisturizer immediately. I also noticed that my pores appear larger and I'm experiencing more localized breakouts where maskne is already present (around the mouth, on either side of the nose, and the middle of both cheeks). I understand it takes time for new products to settle and become effective; after a full week, I'm just not really feeling these products for my skin at the moment. It's a very basic, ordinary cleanser that does indeed remove makeup and cleanse the skin. Consider double cleansing or solely using this product for thorough makeup removal.

I expected from him, in addition to gentle cleansing of the skin, good moisturizing So, I apply a small amount of balm on wet skin. Then I distribute it on the face and neck with light massage movements. The balm does not foam, it quickly turns into oil. Then I wash it off with warm water.

title: Unpleasant smell, hard to wash off
detailedReviews 119: content: So, I used this product daily at night for a bout two months and loved it. It really does get makeup off great and you almost don't even need a second cleanse it works that well at getting the makeup and oil/dirt off. But I started noticing I was getting a lot of inflammation in my face after cleansing and throughout the day. I had added The Ordinary Retinol into my skincare routine once a week and applied it after my moisturizer just to make sure my skin could adapt to it for a bit since I heard it can be an irritating active. When I noticed the inflammation and redness I pulled it out immediately and I also pulled my toner (CareCella) and Serum (InnisTree) from my routine to see if those could be causing the rash but the rash was still popping up, especially at night. My moisturizers, eye cream (which has retinol too), sunscreen, and gentle morning cleanser I've been using for a very long time with no reaction so I know the irritation wasn't coming from them. So that left me with this Squalene cleanser and I noticed my inflammation was getting worse and worse specifically after using this cleanser even when I took all other actives and products that could be causing inflammation out for days/weeks. I even took the eye cream out. Anyways I'm back to just using a gentle cleanser (CeraVe) for right now and have been introducing some of my actives back and I'm having no issues. I'm not sure why I developed that reaction to the cleanser but I've seen a few other reviews of people saying they got a rash or breakouts too so idk. Also, even though its a cheap product it really doesn't last too long if you use it daily so its not really that great of a price. You have to buy a new one every two to four weeks depending on how much you use. I'd rather do the FirstAid cleanser for $24 that lasts me several months and gives me no irritation and I've used for years. So much for going with the trend haha.

title: Caused inflammation and redness after use
detailedReviews 120: content: I’ve been using this for probably about 8 months and I can’t say it’s really done anything. As the other bad reviews have said, it’s like washing your face with lotion—no lather and kinda greasy. It doesn’t clean my face. I can use it in the slower, get out and wipe my face with my thayers face pads and the pads still come out brown from the dirt still on my face. No noticeable changes to anything. I would not buy this again. I’ll just go back to using ole henriksen.

detailedReviews 121: content: The seller had very poor packaging method, but good thing the product itself is not damaged. I will edit this review in a few weeks to see its effectiveness.
Edit: I didn't really notice a big difference. It cleansed my skin well without that drying/stripping feeling after. One of its distinctive qualities is that it doesn't sud or bubble up as much as other cleansers but still leaves you with that clean feeling.

title: Cleansed skin without drying/stripping feeling
detailedReviews 122: content: This product is very interesting because it transforms from a cream to an oil in your hands. Additionally you apply it on dry skin and it doesn’t foam up which I wasn’t used to at all. Certainly a learning curve.
I like that it doesn’t have any added fragrance and it’s cruelty-free. It didn’t break me out or irritated my skin. It didn’t sting my eyes.
My skin suffers from congestion and is oily. It also tends to breakouts. I felt like I’ve had cleansers that did a more thorough job in cleaning my face. I guess, time will tell if it’s doing enough so I don’t wind up with a lot of pimples and blackheads.
I’m still undecided if I would purchase again in the future.

title: Undecided if it cleans thoroughly
detailedReviews 123: content: I have always been a very big cleanser girl but, sadly I have to say this might be one of my least favorite cleansers. It felt very weird on the face and it was very hard to wash off, I also wish that there was a bigger size because I had to repurchase this 5 times in 2 months. It did leave my face feeling very clean! Another thing I didn't really like was the fact that it didn't lather, I feel like it didn't really get into my pores. This product could definitely be better but, I know there are people out there that have had a much better experience than me! You'll find out once you buy it! Overall there is room for improvement but, I feel that this does have a lot of potential and this could be a really good cleanser!

title: Hard to wash off, didn't lather
detailedReviews 124: content: With this cleanser, I find that emulsifying it between your hands first doesn’t give me the best results. So, I have to actually apply it to my dry face and then rub it in. You do have d to rinse your face quite a bit, to get the oily residue off. I don’t recommend using this product only to cleanse your face with and then proceeding with your normal skincare products in the AM or PM. Just using this cleanser alone is not going to get your skin 100% clean (whether you happen to be wearing makeup or not). Which is why, you will need to follow up with your favorite cleanser of choice afterwards in order to do a second cleansing. I definitely don’t use this cleanser on a regular basis, only when I desire to. Also, I must say, it would have been good if the company came out with a much bigger size to start off with, than what they currently have to offer. If you happen to use this cleanser on a regular basis, you will run out of it very, very quickly. Plus, if you wear heavy makeup, it will take alot of this stuff to get it off, which will require you to buy several tubes of this stuff at a time, just to make sure you don’t run out. I did receive this cleanser free with purchase, so I will use it up. I haven’t decided yet, if I will buy this stuff with my own money, in the future. It is okay to use, but it is honestly not an absolute must-have necessity in my skincare regimen all the time. However, I do like that it does not irritate my skin or my eye area either. And, the scent is very tolerable, so absolutely no problems with that.

detailedReviews 128: content: I'm very disappointed with how the parcel was packed. The bubble wrap was just a thin covering with most of the bubbles already popped, and the boxes inside were either torn or dented open. It's a miracle the products inside didn't break and spill.
When I checked the batch code online, the product was about 3yrs (June 2022) since manufacturing. I'm not sure how accurate this is, but it is concerning.
I did try it regardless of these red flags, luckily I didn't experience any irritation and my face felt soft. I did notice though that when applying to the face, following the instructions stated on the bottle of course, the product easily dries up while I'm still massaging my face and have to add a bit of water in my palms to continue rubbing my face.
Unfortunately, I won't be buying this particular product from this store again.

title: Poor packaging, product dried up quickly
detailedReviews 129: content: I was gifted this complimentary from The Ordinary in exchange for my honest review. This cleanser was not what I expected. When I first used it, I immediately noticed its oily texture. It didn’t foam up but it dissolved into my skin. It was very effective at removing all the dirt and grime and makeup from my face and it left my skin feeling soft and moisturized instead of stripped and dry like other cleansers. My problem is, I have very oily skin in my T-zone, especially around my nose and I suffer from hormonal acne. So, while this cleanser dissolved my makeup, I felt like I had to wash my face a second time in order for my nose area to feel clean. The 1.7 oz. size is perfect for travel. If you are in the market for a really nice makeup remover, I would suggest this.

detailedReviews 130: content: Good basic. I did like it but prefer Inkey List Oat Cleaning Balm for budget cleanser. I found the first few usages great but after that I wasn't feeling my skin was refreshed enough - could just be the ingredients a little too much for my skin type which does have open pores. I felt I wasn't getting all the product off. Shame as there were elements I liked, the price and texture and it wasn't drying (at 53 I'm getting dry patches due to perimenopause and thought I'd try a cleanser to help combat this). If you have dry skin you'll like this, but I'd avoid of you have breakout prone skin - there are other better cleansers to use. Sadly won't repurchase this.

detailedReviews 131: content: I bought the mini size and honestly that was a bit of a waste of money, it lasted me a week of daily usage. Just buy the regular or value size. great first step in a double cleanse routine. do not use as a solo cleanser. removes makeup super effectively. I use with the ordinary foam cleanser, this is a good product for high quality/lower price range. I'm sufficiently happy with this and I'm buying the regular size, will try out for a few months and see the results.

detailedReviews 132: content: It is a great cleanser. It naked my skin clean. I find it a bit difficult to use, because it does not become completely soapy. That makes you have to keep using enough water. I personally get a suffocating feeling from that. That made me not buy it again after the tester. In addition, I think that with my skin (skin with a sebum overproduction and combination skin) I can use more effective cleansers. Not quite a fit.

detailedReviews 133: content: I got this inside the no brainer set, its in scented which is good doesn’t have a chemically smell very neutral smell like a typical fragrance free moisturizer, it’s a cream consistency but not an extremely rich cream if that makes sense. It’s semi silky and semi moist anyways but yes and it absorbs very quickly which is nice. You don’t need a ton it spreads very easily and does not leave any residue or greasy feeling behind it dries down fairly quickly after absorbing and leaves the skin very soft and smooth I love running my fingers across my face after. I really enjoy this and you can’t beat the price am definitely going to be picking up a few of the larger size. I struggled with dry skin for a long time and the ordinary products, the peeling solution and the oils have completely turned that around so although I can say now this moisturizer works great for me I’m not sure how it would work for someone with dehydrated skin like I had before but because it’s so affordable I would defini

detailedReviews 134: content: Loved this as a makeup remover. I am a double washer when I wear makeup. I start with a makeup wipe and then usually follow with Clinique foaming makeup remover. When I ran out, I thought I would try this since I love other Ordinary products. I was hesitant based on the feedback but realized people must read the directions. You have to run this cleaners in your hands first and watch it melt into an oil like cleanser, then rub into a dry face. It feels great going on (hydrating),but I honestly didn’t think it was removing my makeup. After rinsing off, I followed with the Ordinary toner and the pad was completely clean, no trace of makeup. Yes I will definitely purchase the full size when I run out.

detailedReviews 136: content: just used it for the first time over the last few days. It does not sud up, which is nice. My skin felt moisturized and clean at the same time. I do not wear makeup so can not really say much for that, but I think it may do well as the first or second wash just because it definitely feels thicker than most of the cleaning products I have used on my face. Probably because of the squalene, so an oil base is usually good for makeup removal. I use to wear makeup years ago.

I have very oily skin.The 1 plus is I look younger than I am & always glow but I go through lots of blotting papers no matter what I use & I have used more things than I can count over the yrs. Apologize for the rambling. My question is will it make my oil skin worse? I see an array of mixed reviews. I haven't used it yet. If it's an oily result I will incorporate this into my hairs co-wash for my dry hair, like I have done with other Ordinary products meant for the skin. With amazing results. Any help would be appreciated. I find asking customers over the company to yield more factual answers. Thanks in advance. PS, I PUSH/ADVOCATE for Ordinary products every chance I get.Even in cosmetic stores,at the mall etc,when I'm trying to be sold other skin products.I start talking to people in the stores that will ask me what brand I'm talking about lol,Especially my family members a few are still paying $40 & up(Which I was guilty of but soon they will switch to the winning team lol) the products aren't even close to the results I have seen with Ody, being cruelty free & almost totally oil free is a +! But I have realized that most oil free claimed products will still contain a form of oil, mainly castor or shark oil so I have accepted it. I look in to amount of oil now over non existent. Anyway I really look younger than some of my sister's that are 7yrs + younger than me now :) *PLEASE DONT STOP PRODUCING QUALITY PRODUCTS & PLEASE KEEP THEM AFFORDABLE! YOUR QUALITY WILL KEEP THE QUANTITY OF YOUR CLIENT'S HIGH & UP THERE WITH THE MORE EXPENSIVE NOT NECESSARILY BETTER BRANDS. YOU GUYS ROCK*!

You generally only need a small amount of it and it does a lot for your skin, so it makes sense why it's not a huge container.
