No ingredient known to feed Malassezia, the yeast behind fungal acne — the same screen as our fungal acne checker. Ferments and fatty alcohols, which the checker marks “possible”, are allowed. Product not here? Check it yourself — paste its ingredient list.
No animal-derived ingredients such as beeswax, lanolin, carmine or collagen.
Key: Centella · Hyaluronic acid
Fungal acne (Malassezia folliculitis) is driven by a yeast that feeds on fatty acids and the oils, butters, esters, polysorbates and lecithin made of them. A product is on this list only when none of its ingredients is one of those triggers — the same screen as our fungal acne checker, applied to the full ingredient list rather than the label claim. Ferments, fatty alcohols (cetyl, cetearyl) and squalene, which the checker marks “possible”, do not exclude a product.
No. A fungal-acne safe product only avoids feeding the yeast. Fungal acne itself is treated with antifungals such as ketoconazole or clotrimazole, usually on a doctor's or pharmacist's advice; these emulsion are what to use alongside without making it worse.
No animal-derived ingredients such as beeswax, lanolin, carmine, collagen, honey, milk or squalane from shark liver. Vegan is about ingredients; whether the brand tests on animals is a separate question (see cruelty-free).
