Common questions
Is Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Fast Absorbing Hand Cream fragrance-free?
No. Fragrance (listed as "Parfum") is the 12th of 12 ingredients.
Does Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Fast Absorbing Hand 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 Norwegian Formula Fast Absorbing Hand Cream safe for fungal acne?
It contains one ingredient that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (hydrogenated palm glycerides). 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 Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Fast Absorbing Hand Cream suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains fragrance, which can bother sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
