Facial oils are more likely to cause clogged pores or acne if the comedogenic rating is higher. But everyone is an individual and some do well with "comedogenic oils" and may break out from non comedogenic oils. Other factors like nutrition, detox, lymphatic drainage, movement, circulation and environment all can affect how our skin reacts. Use this video as a guide and starting point to figure out which oils might work best for you. And always remember to look for organic cold pressed oils without any fillers or added preservatives and chemicals.
