Common questions

Is NIVEA Derma Skin Clear Anti-Blemish Face Scrub fragrance-free?

No. Fragrance (listed as "Parfum") is the 15th of 16 ingredients.

Does NIVEA Derma Skin Clear Anti-Blemish Face Scrub contain alcohol?

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

Is NIVEA Derma Skin Clear Anti-Blemish Face Scrub 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. 3 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 NIVEA Derma Skin Clear Anti-Blemish Face Scrub suitable for sensitive skin?

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