Choosing The Right Make Up For Acne

When using an acne treatment, you may need to change some of the cosmetics you use. All cosmetics should be oil free, when in doubt read the label. Products that are labeled as non-comedogenic (does not promote the formation of closed pores) should be used; in some people, however, even these products may cause acne. Products used to treat oily hair may come in contact with the forehead, causing closed comedones. Hair sprays, gels and styling products can also cause clogged pores and care should be taken to avoid having these products come in contact with the facial skin.
