Frequently asked questions
Does ProACNE Solution Cleansing Foam contain fragrance allergens?
Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 2 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, farnesol. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat ProACNE Solution Cleansing Foam with caution and patch test before full use.
Is ProACNE Solution Cleansing Foam paraben-free?
No parabens were detected in ProACNE Solution Cleansing Foam's listed ingredients. Worth keeping in perspective: parabens are among the least common cosmetic allergens, so "paraben-free" matters far less for reactive skin than avoiding fragrance or the preservative MI/MCI.
Is ProACNE Solution Cleansing Foam suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?
It depends on your specific triggers. ProACNE Solution Cleansing Foam contains 3 flagged allergens and 1 irritant (listed in the analysis above). If none are on your personal allergen list it may suit you, but patch test first — add your allergens to AllerNote to check ProACNE Solution Cleansing Foam against your own profile.
