Common questions
Is L'Oréal Paris Bright Reveal Niacinamide Dark Spot Serum 10% Niacinamide + Amino-Sulfonic Acid fragrance-free?
No. Fragrance (listed as "Parfum/Fragrance") is the 29th of 29 ingredients.
Does L'Oréal Paris Bright Reveal Niacinamide Dark Spot Serum 10% Niacinamide + Amino-Sulfonic Acid contain alcohol?
Yes. Alcohol denat., a drying alcohol, is the 4th of 29 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 L'Oréal Paris Bright Reveal Niacinamide Dark Spot Serum 10% Niacinamide + Amino-Sulfonic Acid safe for fungal acne?
None of the ingredients usually flagged for fungal acne are listed: fatty acids with 11–24 carbons and their esters, polysorbates, plant oils and butters, or ferments. 5 of its ingredients aren't in our glossary yet, so check those yourself. The evidence comes mainly from lab studies of yeast growth, and fungal acne needs a diagnosis from a GP or dermatologist.
Is L'Oréal Paris Bright Reveal Niacinamide Dark Spot Serum 10% Niacinamide + Amino-Sulfonic Acid suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains fragrance, drying alcohol high in the list and salicylic acid, an exfoliating acid, which can bother sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
