Common questions
Is Neutrogena Refreshingly Clear Facial Wash fragrance-free?

Does Neutrogena Refreshingly Clear Facial Wash contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed.
Is Neutrogena Refreshingly Clear Facial Wash safe for fungal acne?
None of the ingredients usually flagged for fungal acne are listed: fatty acids with 11–24 carbons and their esters, polysorbates, plant oils and butters, or ferments. The evidence comes mainly from lab studies of yeast growth, and fungal acne needs a diagnosis from a GP or dermatologist.
Is Neutrogena Refreshingly Clear Facial Wash suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains fragrance and sodium lauryl or laureth sulfate, a strong cleansing agent, which can bother sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
