Common questions
Is La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermo- Cleanser Sensitive Skin fragrance-free?
Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients.
Does La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermo- Cleanser Sensitive Skin contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed.
Is La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermo- Cleanser Sensitive Skin safe for fungal acne?
It contains one ingredient that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (ethylhexyl palmitate). 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.
Is La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermo- Cleanser Sensitive Skin suitable for sensitive skin?
Its ingredient list avoids the most common irritants: no fragrance, essential oils, drying alcohol or strong exfoliating acids are listed. La Roche-Posay also recommends it for sensitive skin. Reactions are individual, so patch-test anything new.
