Common questions

Is Neutrogena Clear & Defend Facial Wash healthy?

Neutrogena Clear & Defend Facial Wash scores 29/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Neutrogena Clear & Defend Facial Wash?

Neutrogena Clear & Defend Facial Wash lists 14 ingredients, starting with Aqua, Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate, Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine, Sorbitol and Glycolic Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Neutrogena Clear & Defend Facial Wash contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Neutrogena Clear & Defend Facial Wash’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Neutrogena Clear & Defend Facial Wash?
