How we read it

Not pore-clogging

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

Is Caprylyl Glycol comedogenic?

No. Caprylyl Glycol 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.

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