Common questions

Is Estée Lauder DayWear Glow Boost Gel Cleanser fragrance-free?

No. Fragrance (listed as "Fragrance (parfum)") is the 27th of 33 ingredients.

Does Estée Lauder DayWear Glow Boost Gel Cleanser contain alcohol?

No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed.

Is Estée Lauder DayWear Glow Boost Gel Cleanser safe for fungal acne?

It contains one ingredient that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: polysorbates (polysorbate 20). How much it matters 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 Estée Lauder DayWear Glow Boost Gel Cleanser suitable for sensitive skin?

It contains fragrance and sodium lauryl or laureth sulfate, a strong cleansing agent, which can bother sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
