Common questions

Is NIVEA MEN Time To Be Game Ready Gift Set fragrance-free?

No. Fragrance (listed as "Parfum") is the 53rd of 53 ingredients.

Does NIVEA MEN Time To Be Game Ready Gift Set contain alcohol?

Yes. Alcohol denat., a drying alcohol, is the 35th of 53 ingredients, lower down the list, so it is likely a smaller amount. It also contains cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol: fatty alcohols that soften and thicken the formula and aren't drying.

Is NIVEA MEN Time To Be Game Ready Gift Set safe for fungal acne?

It contains 9 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty acids (palmitic acid); fatty-acid esters & glycerides (glycol distearate, glyceryl stearate, hydrogenated coco-glycerides); plant oils & butters (hydrogenated castor oil); and 4 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 MEN Time To Be Game Ready Gift Set suitable for sensitive skin?

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