Common questions
Is Clinique Smart Clinical Repair De-aging Skincare Set fragrance-free?
Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients. Clinique also describes it as fragrance-free.
Does Clinique Smart Clinical Repair De-aging Skincare Set contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed. It does contain cetearyl alcohol and cetyl alcohol: fatty alcohols that soften and thicken the formula and aren't drying.
Is Clinique Smart Clinical Repair De-aging Skincare Set safe for fungal acne?
It contains 5 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (glyceryl stearate, peg-100 stearate, sorbitan oleate); polysorbates (polysorbate 20, polysorbate 80). 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 Clinique Smart Clinical Repair De-aging Skincare Set 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.
