Biossance Squalane + Antioxidant Cleansing Oil, 6.7 oz — Lightweight Makeup-Removing, Hydrating Cleanser

Biossance Squalane + Antioxidant Cleansing Oil is a lightweight oil cleanser that dissolves makeup, cleans deep into pores, and leaves skin hydrated without stripping.

This cleansing oil blends sustainably sourced squalane with antioxidant support to break down long-wear makeup, sunscreen, and daily grime while helping preserve your skin’s natural moisture. The formula is designed for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and transforms from an oil into a milky emulsion when water is added, making rinsing effortless. It’s a simple choice for anyone who wants efficient removal of impurities without a tight or dry after-feel.

How does this oil remove long-wear makeup and sunscreen?

The oil base solubilizes and lifts waterproof and long-wear products from the skin’s surface, allowing them to be rinsed away cleanly. Emulsifying with water turns the oil into a milky rinse, which helps carry residue down the drain instead of leaving an oily film.

• Works on mascara, liquid lipstick, and sweat-resistant sunscreen
• Emulsifies with water for easy rinsing
• Non-greasy finish that avoids pore-clogging residue

Will this hydrate or dry out my skin after cleansing?

Formulated around squalane, the cleanser supports the skin’s lipid layer rather than stripping it, so skin feels soft and cushiony after use. Antioxidants in the blend help protect against environmental stressors while maintaining moisture balance.

• Leaves skin feeling supple, not tight
• Supports the moisture barrier with lightweight lipids
• Suitable for use year-round, including drier seasons

Is this gentle enough for sensitive or breakout-prone skin?

The formula is designed to be gentle and non-irritating, making it appropriate for sensitive skin when used as directed. Because it rinses clean and does not leave heavy residues, it’s compatible with most follow-up treatments, including toners and serums.

• No harsh detergent-based stripping action
• Rinses thoroughly to reduce potential clogging
• Pairs well with targeted serums after cleansing

How do I use this cleanser in my routine?

Use it as the first step in a double-cleanse or as your daily cleansing method. Massage onto dry skin to dissolve makeup and impurities, add water to emulsify, then rinse completely and follow with your regular skincare steps.

• Apply to dry face, massage for 30–60 seconds
• Add water to emulsify into a milky texture, then rinse
• Follow with water-based cleanser if you prefer double-cleansing

Who is this for? Biossance Squalane + Antioxidant Cleansing Oil fits anyone seeking an effective, hydrating way to remove makeup and surface impurities without compromising skin comfort—particularly those who wear long-wear cosmetics or sunscreen daily. It’s a good option for people with normal, dry, combination, or sensitive skin who want a gentle yet thorough first-step cleanser. If you’re looking for a quick-to-use remover that supports skin softness and pairs well with treatment serums, this cleansing oil offers a balanced approach.
