Common questions
Is La Roche-Posay Retinol B3 Anti-wrinkle Anti-Ageing Serum fragrance-free?
No. Fragrance (listed as "Parfum") is the 22nd of 22 ingredients.
Does La Roche-Posay Retinol B3 Anti-wrinkle Anti-Ageing Serum contain alcohol?
Yes. Alcohol denat., a drying alcohol, is the 4th of 22 ingredients, high enough to be a main ingredient. It makes products feel light and dry quickly, but can dry out or irritate sensitive skin.
Is La Roche-Posay Retinol B3 Anti-wrinkle Anti-Ageing Serum safe for fungal acne?
It contains 2 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (retinyl palmitate); plant oils & butters (glycine soja oil). 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 La Roche-Posay Retinol B3 Anti-wrinkle Anti-Ageing Serum suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains fragrance, drying alcohol high in the list and retinol, which often irritates at first, which can bother sensitive skin. La Roche-Posay says it's made for sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
