Common questions
Is Clinique Smart Clinical Repair Lifting Face + Neck Cream 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 Lifting Face + Neck Cream contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed. It does contain behenyl alcohol: a fatty alcohol that softens and thickens the formula and isn't drying.
Is Clinique Smart Clinical Repair Lifting Face + Neck Cream safe for fungal acne?
It contains 14 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (caprylic, polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate, polyglyceryl-10 pentastearate); plant oils & butters (butyrospermum parkii (shea) butter, simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed oil); and 9 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.
Is Clinique Smart Clinical Repair Lifting Face + Neck 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.
