Hemi-Squalane is a non-polar hydrocarbon produced from the fermentation of sugar-based feedstock. Squalane and Hemi-Squalane are both excellent non-comedogenic emollients that can help to reduce the ongoing loss of hydration that weakens dermal elasticity and suppleness. However, due to its low molecular weight, Hemi-Squalane has greater spreadability and leaves a light and dry after-feel, making it very suitable for reducing hair frizz.

READ THIS! Before Ordering The Ordinary

We have recently received a notice from DECIEM regarding a few changes in packaging & labelling of The Ordinary. As DECIEM Korea is the only office in Asia Pacific, some labels on their popular products will be printed in Korean. However, kindly rest assured that an English version will also be included (on the other side).

Change in Labelling

Some of our products which we import from DECIEM Korea will have changes in their packaging containing information  like ingredients and use direction. One side of the box will be printed in Korean language, while the other side will remain in  English (as shown in the image below).
