Dermatica Caring Squalane Cream Cleanser I Daily Wash For Dry or Combination Skin Types (150ml)

I absolutely love the fact that this goes on dry and then you rub it in and it turns into a cream and then like an oil to help get all the dirt out of your skin. It feels really nice and I can tell it’s getting all the dirt out.

Have ordered this multiple times. Worked great on my dry skin.

I love oil cleansers however this one doesnt work as well as others I’ve tried. So far The Ordinary Squalane cleanser is my favorite. This one doesn’t quite get all my makeup off and I fine there’s a lot on my cotton pads when I use my toner. It does leave my face soft though.

I've seen a lot of negative reviews from folks that most likely don't double cleanse.Please only use this product when double cleansing, because Squalane is considered oil based, it is supposed to "emulsify" the makeup off your face, and therefore leaves a small oily film behind if you don't double cleanse. Thus, double cleansing is a must with a water based cleanser after using an oil-based cleanser.Correct way to double cleanse (usually done in the evenings only)***recommended pre-step: take off most makeup with micellar water and reusable cotton rounds***1) apply a oil based cleanser on a DRY FACE, and spread around to lift makeup/dirt.2) wet hands very slightly3) rub wet hands on face to emulsify the oil cleanser (turns slightly white in color)4) then wash off cleanser completely5) cleanse face with second cleanser (Water-based)This product is awesome, and is the perfect for sensitive skin. I would recommend it for everyone and anyone! I bought this product in Sept 2024, use it 3-4 evenings a week and will probably run out sometime next month (Feb 2025)

I love the consistency of this cleanser. It is very similar to the Monat Be Gentle Cleanser at a better price point. I have never double cleansed in my life. It is amazing for dry and mature skin. I am 58 and need all the oil I can find. I love Dermatica. They have high quality products that are very reasonable. The Kristin Ess hair care line is the same.

I bought this in an attempt to try a squaline cleanser/makeup remover similar to The Ordinary, but more product for my money. I've been pleasantly surprised. It's different, but it feels nice on my skin. My sensitive skin has not reacted to it. There is no noticeable scent. One of the reviews said you'll want to use this with a double cleanse, and I would second that comment. It does leave a slight residue, but if you use this as your first cleanse or to remove makeup, and then proceed with face wash and the rest of your skincare routine (which is what I do), this is really nice.

I do the two cleanse method with an oil based cleanser first, followed by a water based. Because I have acne prone and sensitive skin, I am careful about what I put on my face, especially when it comes to oil. I have been using The Ordinary Squalene cleanser as my 1st cleanser and loved it. I recognized that my skin is happy with squalene and responds well. BUT I hate having to go buy in the store. So I looked for a similar product and found this one by Dermatica. This is a great, great squalene cleanser, very similar to The Ordinary, but with a bit more "slip" as it has some added oils in it. It does the job of breaking down face makeup and glides well on the skin. The airless pump is my favorite type of bottle for skin care ingredients and this one is very nice. I have NO idea how this oil based cleanser would stand up to a different cleanser that was formulated with a different oil for makeup removal......but for a squalene based product, I think it is fantastic and I will be buying again.NOTE: this is a product you would use for the double cleanse method. It would not be a single cleanse product as there is residue that would be left behind and not leave your skin clean.

I don't really buy the bottle description of how it changes three times during application. It is quite greasy. I also found it difficult to fully remove from my face. If you happen to get some in your eyes it burns worse than regular soap.
