How we read it

Not pore-clogging

Not a pore-clogger. Considered safe for acne-prone skin.

Is Alcohol Denat. comedogenic?

No. Alcohol Denat. isn't considered pore-clogging, and we read it as safe to use on acne-prone skin. That doesn't make it right for everyone, but congestion isn't the thing to watch for with it.

Why we read it this way

A fast-evaporating solvent. Not pore-clogging — the concern with denatured alcohol is dryness/irritation for some skin, not clogged pores.

One ingredient rarely tells the whole story. Run the whole label and see everything in the product at once.
