Why use a pore clogging ingredients checker?
Using an acne ingredient checker is essential for anyone struggling with breakouts or congestion. Many “luxury” or “natural” products contain hidden triggers that block pores. Our non comedogenic checker scans a database of 200+ ingredients to give you peace of mind before you apply anything to your skin.
How Does the Comedogenic Checker Work?
Not all ingredients are created equal. Our comedogenic ingredient checker uses a scientific scale of 0–5 to rate how likely an ingredient is to block your pores:
- Rating 0: Non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores).
- Rating 1-2: Low risk.
- Rating 3-5: High risk of “comedones” (blackheads and whiteheads).
By using this acne ingredient checker, you can vet your moisturizers, foundations, and sunscreens in seconds.
What Are Pore-Clogging Ingredients?
Pore-clogging, or “comedogenic,” ingredients are substances that have a high tendency to block the openings of your hair follicles. When these ingredients mix with your natural sebum and dead skin cells, they form a “plug” or comedone
Blackheads (Open Comedones)
Formed when the plug is exposed to air and oxidizes.
Whiteheads (Closed Comedones)
Formed when the pore remains trapped under the skin.
