Common questions

Is Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion+ SPF50 fragrance-free?

Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients. Clinique also describes it as fragrance-free.

Does Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion+ SPF50 contain alcohol?

No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed. It does contain cetearyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol: fatty alcohols that soften and thicken the formula and aren't drying.

Is Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion+ SPF50 safe for fungal acne?

It contains 2 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (peg-100 stearate, dextrin palmitate). How much they matter 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 Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion+ SPF50 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.
