Common questions
Is Estée Lauder Micro Essence Treatment Lotion Fresh fragrance-free?
Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients.
Does Estée Lauder Micro Essence Treatment Lotion Fresh contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed.
Is Estée Lauder Micro Essence Treatment Lotion Fresh safe for fungal acne?
It contains 2 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: ferments (bifida ferment lysate, lactobacillus ferment). 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 Estée Lauder Micro Essence Treatment Lotion Fresh 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.
