How it works

SkinSort's pore clogging ingredient checker flags products with a comedogenic rating of 2 or higher.

Comedogenic ratings indicate how likely an ingredient is to clog pores and potentially cause breakouts. These ratings range from 0 (non-comedogenic) to 5 (highly comedogenic), helping you identify which ingredients might trigger acne.
