Common questions
Is No7 Cleansing Hot Cloth Cleanser fragrance-free?
No. Fragrance (listed as "Parfum (Fragrance)") is the 17th of 28 ingredients.
Does No7 Cleansing Hot Cloth Cleanser contain alcohol?
No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed. It does contain cetearyl alcohol: a fatty alcohol that softens and thickens the formula and isn't drying.
Is No7 Cleansing Hot Cloth Cleanser safe for fungal acne?
It contains 5 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (tribehenin, glyceryl stearate, peg-100 stearate); polysorbates (polysorbate 20); plant oils & butters (butyrospermum parkii (shea) butter). 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 No7 Cleansing Hot Cloth Cleanser suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains fragrance, which can bother sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
