The key to achieving glowing skin is using ingredients that do not block pores and score a zero on the comedogenic scale. For example, if you are prone to oily or acne prone skin then you will not want to use a product that contains an ingredient with a score of 3 to 5.
The Comedogenic Scale
0 – won’t clog pores at all1 – very low likelihood of clogging pores2 – moderately low likelihood3 – moderate likelihood4 – fairly high likelihood5 – high likelihood of clogging pores
