Common questions
Is NIVEA Cherry Shine Lip Balm fragrance-free?
No. Fragrance (listed as "Aroma") is the 10th of 13 ingredients.
Does NIVEA Cherry Shine Lip Balm contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed.
Is NIVEA Cherry Shine Lip Balm safe for fungal acne?
It contains 6 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (ascorbyl palmitate); plant oils & butters (helianthus annuus hybrid oil, ricinus communis seed oil, hydrogenated rapeseed oil, butyrospermum parkii butter); 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 NIVEA Cherry Shine Lip Balm suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains fragrance, which can bother sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
