Common questions

Is CeraVe Oil Control Moisturising Gel-Cream fragrance-free?

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

Does CeraVe Oil Control Moisturising Gel-Cream contain alcohol?

No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed. It does contain c14-22 alcohols and cetearyl alcohol: fatty alcohols that soften and thicken the formula and aren't drying.

Is CeraVe Oil Control Moisturising Gel-Cream safe for fungal acne?

It contains 2 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (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.

Is CeraVe Oil Control Moisturising Gel-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.
