Many acne sufferers unknowingly worsen their acne by using skincare products and makeup that contain pore-clogging ingredients like large-sized oils, silicones, or waxes - all of which can block the openings of the oil-producing glands. When the oils cannot escape onto the skin surface, the normal resident bacteria in the glands start to multiply and cause the inflammation we see as acne.
