How we read it
Not pore-clogging
Not a pore-clogger. Considered safe for acne-prone skin.
Is Sunflower Oil comedogenic?
No. Sunflower Oil 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
High in linoleic acid, which acne-prone skin tends to be low in; usually a safe choice.

One ingredient rarely tells the whole story. The acne ingredient checker reads everything in a product at once, and there is more on what comedogenic means. Also in the guides: The types of acne lesions.
