Common questions

Is Neutrogena Hydro Boost Body Gel Cream fragrance-free?

No. Fragrance (listed as "Parfum") is the 16th of 17 ingredients.

Does Neutrogena Hydro Boost Body Gel Cream contain alcohol?

No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed. It does contain cetyl alcohol: a fatty alcohol that softens and thickens the formula and isn't drying.

Is Neutrogena Hydro Boost Body Gel Cream safe for fungal acne?

It contains 3 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (isopropyl palmitate, cetearyl olivate, sorbitan olivate). 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.
