Is Cremo Bourbon Vanilla Beard & Scruff Cream fragrance-free?

The brand does not market it as fragrance free. The label lists these scent ingredients: Fragrance.

Is the cetyl alcohol in this formula drying?

No. Cetyl Alcohol and Cetearyl Alcohol are fatty alcohols that soften and thicken a formula. They aren't the drying alcohol (ethanol) people try to avoid.

What it is

Cremo Bourbon Vanilla Beard & Scruff Cream is a leave-in cream that softens facial hair and moisturizes the skin underneath. Cremo says it works on stubble, scruff and full beards, and helps shape longer beards.

Key ingredients

How to use

Rub a quarter-sized amount between your palms and work it into a damp or dry beard. Comb or brush through for even coverage, then shape longer beards as needed.

Who should be careful

It’s scented and lists fragrance and coconut oil, which some acne-prone skin reacts to. Cremo’s own site lists this scent as a Walmart exclusive, so the Amazon listing may be an older formula; check the ingredient list on the tub.

What the brand claims

Cremo says it softens beard hair, moisturizes the skin underneath and helps soothe beard itch. The page gives no study figures.
