Common questions

Is Clinique Hydration Heroes Kit fragrance-free?

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

Does Clinique Hydration Heroes Kit contain alcohol?

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

Is Clinique Hydration Heroes Kit safe for fungal acne?

It contains 10 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (octyldodecyl myristate); polysorbates (polysorbate 80); ferments (saccharomyces lysate extract, thermus thermophillus ferment, lactobacillus ferment lysate); and 5 more. 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.
