Lanolin Wax
May feed Fungal Acne
Fungal acne-safe products avoid ingredients that feed Malassezia yeast, the cause of fungal acne. Unlike regular acne, fungal acne appears as small, uniform bumps and won't respond to typical acne treatments. If you suspect fungal acne, consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis.
Explained
Lanolin Wax comes from lanolin. The liquid version of lanolin wax is lanolin oil.
As an emollient, it creates a thin barrier on the skin. This barrier prevents moisture from escaping to keep skin hydrated.
This ingredient may not be Malassezia folliculitis, or fungal acne safe.
