Biossance Squalane + Antioxidant Cleansing Oil, 6.7 oz — Lightweight Makeup Remover that Hydrates

Biossance Squalane + Antioxidant Cleansing Oil is a lightweight, oil-based facial cleanser that dissolves makeup, cleans pores, and leaves skin hydrated without stripping natural moisture.

This gentle cleansing oil pairs sustainably sourced squalane with antioxidant-rich ingredients to lift away long-wear makeup, sunscreen, and daily grime while supporting the skin’s moisture barrier. Designed for all skin types, the formula emulsifies with water for easy rinsing and aims to leave skin feeling soft and balanced rather than tight or dry.

How does this cleansing oil remove makeup and sunscreen?

The product uses oil-soluble molecules to break down and dissolve oil-based makeup and SPF, allowing them to lift from the skin surface without vigorous scrubbing. When you add a splash of water the oil emulsifies into a milky texture that rinses clean, carrying impurities down the drain.

• Dissolves waterproof and long-wear formulas gently.
• Emulsifies with water for residue-free rinsing.
• Reduces need for multiple cleansers or harsh rubbing.

Will it leave my skin hydrated or greasy?

Formulated with lightweight squalane, this oil is designed to replenish lipids and support the skin’s barrier without heavy residue. Most users report a soft, cushiony finish after rinsing; blotting or following with a second water-based cleanse can tailor the finish to your preference.

• Squalane mimics skin lipids to lock in moisture.
• Lightweight texture avoids clogged pores for most skin types.
• Rinses away clean when emulsified, minimizing greasy feel.

Is it safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

This cleansing oil is formulated to be gentle and non-irritating, making it suitable for many with sensitive skin. It is non-comedogenic in formulation intent, but individuals with specific acne concerns should patch-test and observe how their skin responds.

• Gentle, non-abrasive removal method for delicate skin.
• Antioxidants help protect against environmental stressors without harsh exfoliation.
• Patch testing recommended if you have active breakouts or sensitivities.

How do I use the cleansing oil in my routine?

Use as the first step of a double-cleanse or as your single cleansing step. Apply a small amount to dry skin, massage to dissolve makeup and impurities, add water to emulsify, then rinse thoroughly and follow with your preferred toner or moisturizer.

• Apply to dry face and massaging for 30–60 seconds.
• Add water to transform into a milky emulsion, then rinse.
• Follow with a water-based cleanser if desired, then continue with serum and moisturizer.

Who is this for: This cleansing oil is made for people who want an effective, nourishing makeup remover that also supports hydration—ideal for those who wear long-wear makeup or daily SPF, anyone seeking a kinder alternative to foaming cleansers, and people with normal, dry, combination, or sensitive skin looking to preserve their moisture barrier during cleansing. If you have active cystic acne or prefer foaming textures exclusively, consider patch testing first or using it as the first step in a double-cleanse.
