Comedogenicity

Comedogenicity refers to the ability of an ingredient or a skincare product to clog pores, thereby promoting the emergence of open or closed comedones. All skin types can be affected, although oily and acne-prone skin are particularly susceptible. Identifying components to avoid and prioritizing non-comedogenic care is crucial for maintaining clear and balanced skin.
