Common questions
Is Clinique Take The Day Off Facial Cleansing Mousse fragrance-free?
Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients. Clinique also describes it as fragrance-free.
Does Clinique Take The Day Off Facial Cleansing Mousse contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed.
Is Clinique Take The Day Off Facial Cleansing Mousse safe for fungal acne?
It contains 4 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty acids (myristic acid, lauric acid, behenic acid); fatty-acid esters & glycerides (glycol distearate). 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 Take The Day Off Facial Cleansing Mousse 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.
