Common questions
Is Garnier Vitamin C Wonder Tint SPF50 Light Shade fragrance-free?
No. Fragrance (listed as "Parfum") is the 39th of 39 ingredients.
Does Garnier Vitamin C Wonder Tint SPF50 Light Shade contain alcohol?
Yes. Alcohol denat., a drying alcohol, is the 2nd of 39 ingredients, high enough to be a main ingredient. It makes products feel light and dry quickly, but can dry out or irritate sensitive skin.
Is Garnier Vitamin C Wonder Tint SPF50 Light Shade safe for fungal acne?
It contains 6 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty acids (stearic acid, palmitic acid, myristic acid); fatty-acid esters & glycerides (isopropyl myristate, peg-100 stearate); and 1 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 Garnier Vitamin C Wonder Tint SPF50 Light Shade suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains fragrance and drying alcohol high in the list, which can bother sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
