Need help please - is this oil free?
ReplyDeleteHi there, the Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, the 3rd ingredient, is a compound made from coconut oil and glycerin. There are lots of extracts in the list of ingredients, but they do not list the oils. I hope that this helps. The full list of ingredients is shown above.
DeleteSo is this product bad for pores and acne because of the oils/coconut oil? Coconut oil congests skin and can worsen acne. I may be allergic to cica and or the algae ingredient.
DeleteThe research that I did suggests that Caprylic/capric triglyceride is non-comedogenic, meaning it does not clog pores for most people. This ingredient is derived from coconut oil, and that is comedogenic, and is known to clog pores in that form. That said, you should discuss the ingredients with your doctor to see if they think it is a product that you should avoid. If you are allergic to any of the ingredients, or even think that you are, then I would just avoid this product altogether. You might consider researching the ingredients further, and talking to your doctor about it. I typically bring the product along with the list of ingredients to my doctor to get advice. Any time that there are ingredients that I am unsure about, I talk to my doctor to see if I should just avoid the products containing them. I have had far too many skin reactions from products that I have put on my skin over the years, and I no longer am willing to try anything that could potentially cause a reaction. My skin isn't acne prone, but it can be sensitive to certain ingredients, and therefore I am very careful about what I try. It sounds to me, based upon what you have said, that you should skip this face cream.
