Common questions

Is Clinique for Men Face Scrub fragrance-free?

No fragrance (parfum) is listed, but it includes fragrance allergens (menthol). These often come from plant extracts or oils, and UK and EU labels must declare them above set levels.

Does Clinique for Men Face Scrub contain alcohol?

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

Is Clinique for Men Face 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.
