My Understanding About Comedogonic

Sorry for the late post! I'm just arrived at home & I thought you might find this interesting, I found it on another page I follow, posted by a very very experienced and well educated person.

There's a lot of misinformation about which ingredients will, and will not clog human pores. That's why we have the Comedogenic Scale.

The attached image lists many common oils, waxes and other cosmetic ingredients.

HERE’S THE LOW DOWN ON THE COMEDOGENIC RATINGS:

An oil that has a comedogenic rating of 0 is widely believed to be non-comedogenic and will not clog your pores.

A comedogenic rating of 1 signifies a slight chance that the oil will clog your pores.

A comedogenic rating of 2 tells you that the oil will not clog pores for MOST people, but some will begin to notice clogged pores or a “purge” in some cases.

A comedogenic rating of 3 is where a lot of people will break out using this oil, but a lot of people may not break out depending on their skin type.

A comedogenic rating of 4 suggests that MOST people will break out using this oil unless they have a good tolerance for it. This largely depends on a number of skin type factors.

A comedogenic rating of 5 is basically a guaranteed chance of breaking out. Very very few people can tolerate oils labeled as a 5, but they do exist!

Overall, choose the product properly by looking its ingredients & be aware of any product that might breaking out your skin. Check this link if you want to know further about comedogonic
