About

Squalane Cleanser is designed to effectively cleanse the skin by removing makeup, dirt, and impurities, while also supporting the skin’s moisture barrier through hydration. Formulated with plant-derived squalane, a well-known moisturizing agent, this cleanser leaves skin feeling soft, smooth, and hydrated. The addition of lipophilic esters helps dissolve makeup without stripping the skin. This gentle cleanser formulation is non-comedogenic, soap-free, ideal for daily use across all skin types and is suitable for combining with other skincare products.
