The old-school assumption that face oils lead to clogged pores and therefore breakouts, is starting to turn a new corner. While it’s true that those with acne-prone skin should, in fact, avoid comedogenics (i.e. pore-clogging and breakout-causing) oils like coconut, avocado, shea butter, and petroleum, there are a plethora of facial oils for blemish-prone skin types that are not only safe for those seeking blemish-prevention, but that can also actually help to re-balance oil levels in the skin and fade the appearance of scars to boot.
If you suffer from both oily and blemish-prone skin, it’s totally understandable that the idea of slathering your face in more grease would not only make you look like an oil slick but also welcome a new crop of miniature planets to form across your t-zone (usually, the most oil-prone section of the face). However, if you’ve always been one to dodge products without the oil-free stamp approval proudly on display, only to opt for ultra-drying formulas instead, you may want to go ahead and reconsider this outdated perspective.
You see, many types of breakouts are often the results of overly dehydrated skin that’s been virtually stripped of all oils. As a response, our skin then produces even more oil to compensate for the lack of moisture as a means of alleviating the (self-inflicted) dehydration. When you think about it from this perspective, it makes perfect sense that nourishing your skin with the right type of oil will help keep moisture levels balanced and prevent excess oil production. With that being said, we’ve rounded up a few pimple-proof face oils that will keep your skin’s moisture levels in check without causing congested pores and blackheads.
