Face Moisturizer and Acne?

Question

I was wondering if face moisturizer irritated acne or makes it worse.

Answer 1

yes it can....it depends on how rich the product is...as it can clog the pores and cause ache to get worse

Answer 2

Well i used to have bd skin, and i used Simple moisturiser, which is availlable in the UK but not sure in the USA however, I also used other products, such a depp action facial cleansing wipes and blackhead cleanser, etc. (: Also that stuff that reduces spots in 4 hours is good! But it's important to find something suitable for your skin, so try a few things before settling for one :D

Answer 3

No. Wash your face with Reviva Seaweed soap and use a good moisturizer. Your acne will be gone in two days and have beautiful skin.

Answer 4

some can, look for a moisturizer with salylitic acid in it. it will control the acne, while moistuizing the skin.
pro-active has a good moisturizer to try.

Answer 5

no, u should always make sure ur skin is moisturized even tho u have acne; if u keep ur skin dry to try not to clog the pore the pimple will just get worse, since ur skin will start overproducing sebum to make up for the dryness

Answer 6

Clinique has an excelent moisturizer for oily skin.

Answer 7

Irritation is more likely to be caused by a sort of allergy to it.
