This is a very unique cleanser. I've never came across something that felt like this before. Out of the tube, it felt kind of similar to the squalane cleanser but watery-er(?) and when you apply it it almost felt like a lotion that's being absorbed into your skin, or that it's fastly drying out which was alarming at first. But it does rinse off nicely and I always feel clean afterwards. It does not dry out my skin and it feels quite gentle. Not sure how to feel about the way it applies, I think some people might not like how un "cleanser like" it feels. But I like it. Been using it for a week now since I ordered it early when it was available for O.lab

I use the double cleanse method, and this worked out perfectly as the first step! Whether it’s removing skincare plus spf, skincare plus spf and makeup, or in the morning after slugging at night, rinses clean, and then I follow up with TO foaming cleanser. And it smells like coconuts, but I don’t know how seeing as it doesn’t look like there is any form of coconut in it without a doubt. I’m so happy to find a new cleanser for my step one.

I received this about a week ago and I am in love with it. I still love the squalane cleanser and I will use that in the winter months but this one is my new go to for the spring and summer. I don’t wear makeup so I can’t comment on how it works for that.

Love this, it's such a gentle cleanser that's perfect for sensitive or sensitized skin. I would get periodic acid peels as part of my skincare routine and skin can be very sensitized afterward - this is so gentle it really takes care of skin in the initial days. It doesn't sting the eyes, has a neutral scent, and is perfect.

I love The Ordinary for giving us solid products doing their jobs as advertised. I was sceptical about the non-stripping aspect, but it's works so well. I have sensitive combination skin and it can be difficult to find the right balance, but this one cleanses well and is very gentle to the skin at the same time.

I can't use soap on my face at all (it makes my skin dry up and break out terribly), so I have been using soapless cleansers for years. I got this for free the last time I ordered a few other products from The Ordinary that are in my regular rotation. As someone with sensitive, reactive skin, trying a new product is always hit or miss, but seeing that it was a soapless cleanser I had to try it. I love it! If you follow the directions (ie massage it into DRY skin then rinse it off with warm water) it takes most makeup off beautifully. For heavier makeup you will still need a separate makeup remover, but that is true of all cleansers! This cleanser leaves my skin feeling clean and healthy. I do find it just a touch drying, but I compensate by going heavier on moisturizer at night and that works like a charm. I will be rebuying this, for sure.

I’m not sure if I’m using it wrong, but it never really felt like it cleaned my face. I always had to scrub with a face cloth to get my face to feel clean after using this. But scrubbing irritates me face. After a few months of using this (along with the anhydrous salicylic acid) I noticed more inflamed breakouts and congestion such as blackheads and whiteheads. I followed directions. Used it on a dry face. Rubbed the cleanser between my hands before applying. I would rub the cleaner until it became clear in colour, but after reading more reviews here, I wonder if I didn’t rub the cleanser in my hands enough. Recently I started using it again and I am rubbing it more vigorously between my hands first. I do notice that the cleanser feels oilier the more I rub, and the oilier I feels before applying, the better it seems to cleanse my face. I’ll update my review if it doesn’t break me out with this time.

Excessive Oiliness

Disclaimer I have always used face wash or foaming cleanser as I like my skin to feel clean. I'm new to anything oily and frankly I don't get this at all! I massage it in and then rinse off but my hands and face are still coated with oil. It might remove make up but my face it now very oily so to remove that I need an emulsifying face wash to remove that which adds an unnecessary step. What a shame. I don't get how people love this so much. I wish they'd make a proper face wash! Recommends this product ✘

So I bought this cleanser and have been using it RELIGIOUSLY because I know that consistency is key with skin care… my skin feels amazing after I use it but I’m finding that not even halfway through the day my skin looks like I have gone my entire life without washing it. My skin will look SO OILY and greasy. Perhaps the ordinary can give me some tips or offer a different product to use instead… I’ll walk into the bathroom halfway through my day and feel so embarrassed about how oily my skin looks… a problem I did not have before switching to products from the ordinary. I don’t want to give up hope though so I’m pushing through… Recommends this product ✘

Breakouts/Acne

I bought this a few weeks ago along with the moisturizer, matrixyl and niacinamide as my skin is acne prone. I normally used a Garnier cleanser which is cheap and simple and does tge trick but I felt like spoiling myself with some ‘luxury’ products and take my skincare to the next level. I HAVE NEVER HAD SO MANY BREAKOUTS IN MY LIFE! The so called cleanser clogged my pores and is oily to the point you could almost use it for deep frying chips. Recommends this product ✘
