Common questions
Is Clinique Smart Clinical Repair Wrinkle Correcting Serum fragrance-free?
Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients. Clinique also describes it as fragrance-free.
Does Clinique Smart Clinical Repair Wrinkle Correcting Serum contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed.
Is Clinique Smart Clinical Repair Wrinkle Correcting Serum safe for fungal acne?
It contains 3 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: polysorbates (polysorbate 20, polysorbate 80); ferments (yeast extract). 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 Smart Clinical Repair Wrinkle Correcting Serum suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains retinol, which often irritates at first, which can bother sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
