Common questions
Is CeraVe Blemish Barrier Patches fragrance-free?
Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients.
Does CeraVe Blemish Barrier Patches contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed.
Is CeraVe Blemish Barrier Patches safe for fungal acne?
It contains one ingredient that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (sodium lauroyl lactylate). How much it matters depends on the amount and the rest of the formula. The evidence comes mainly from lab studies of yeast growth, and fungal acne needs a diagnosis from a GP or dermatologist.
Is CeraVe Blemish Barrier Patches suitable for sensitive skin?
Its ingredient list avoids the most common irritants: no fragrance, essential oils, drying alcohol or strong exfoliating acids are listed. Reactions are individual, so patch-test anything new.
