Common questions

Is CeraVe Invisible Hydrating Sunscreen SPF30 fragrance-free?

Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients.

Does CeraVe Invisible Hydrating Sunscreen SPF30 contain alcohol?

Yes. Alcohol denat., a drying alcohol, is the 3rd of 33 ingredients, high enough to be a main ingredient. It makes products feel light and dry quickly, but can dry out or irritate sensitive skin. It also contains cetearyl alcohol: a fatty alcohol that softens and thickens the formula and isn't drying.

Is CeraVe Invisible Hydrating Sunscreen SPF30 safe for fungal acne?

It contains 3 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (isopropyl palmitate, isopropyl myristate, sodium lauroyl lactylate). 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.
