Pore Clogging Ingredients List
by Emily Linehan on January 28, 2022
When it comes to acne, pore clogging ingredients are often a big catalyst for chronic acne breakouts. Unfortunately, many popular makeup brands, haircare brands, and body care brands contain pore clogging ingredients that wreak havoc on acne prone skin.
To ensure your skin clears (and stays clear), make sure to avoid make up/body care/hair care products containing any of the following pore clogging ingredients.
Important Note: Just because a skincare product is free of pore-clogging ingredients, that does not guarantee it will clear the skin. To ensure results, we highly recommend following your customized Emme Diane skincare routine as these products were carefully formulated and work synergistically together.
Please note, when checking products each ingredient must be separated with a comma (,)
