Common questions

Is Clinique Exfoliating Scrub fragrance-free?

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

Does Clinique Exfoliating Scrub contain alcohol?

No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed.

Is Clinique Exfoliating Scrub safe for fungal acne?

It contains one ingredient that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (glyceryl stearate). 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.
