Common questions

Is No7 Essential Moisture Night Cream fragrance-free?

Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients. No7 also describes it as fragrance-free.

Does No7 Essential Moisture Night Cream contain alcohol?

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

Is No7 Essential Moisture Night Cream safe for fungal acne?

It contains 3 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (glyceryl stearate, peg-20 stearate); plant oils & butters (oenothera biennis (evening primrose) 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 No7 Essential Moisture Night Cream suitable for sensitive skin?

Its ingredient list avoids the most common irritants: no fragrance, essential oils, drying alcohol or strong exfoliating acids are listed. Reactions are individual, so patch-test anything new.
