Product Description
Achieving squeaky-clean skin is super easy (and affordable) with The Ordinary.
This Squalane Cleanser is your one-stop shop to a grime-free complexion. Gentle and moisturizing, the facial cleanser is powered by squalene; a hard-working hydrator that's naturally found in the skin.
As squalene softens and restores the skin's suppleness, stubborn makeup, dirt and impurities are washed away and skin is left feeling smooth, soft and nourished.
The cleanser itself starts off with a balm-like formula but soon changes to an oily-texture when warmed between palms, making it all the easier for the squalene to breakthrough and clear out clogged pores.
Suitable for daily use and for all skin types, there's no doubting that this cleanser is a real crowd (and complexion) pleaser.
This product goes well with The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA. You might also like Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion from The Ordinary. You might also like The Ordinary 100% Plant Derived Hemi Squalane.
