Do all oils clog pores and cause acne?

March 27, 2023

- Of course not! To be comedogenic, an oil must form a thin film on the surface of the skin. It is she who leads to the development of acne in people who have a tendency to this. And only oils based on saturated fatty acids have such a function - they are more dense, refractory and film-forming. A prominent example is coconut oil. But this group also includes cocoa butter, mango butter, cupuaçu, babassu, palm oil and monoi de tahiti.
