Oils are essential on the skin because they supply fatty acids. Which is the reason why those with oily skin cannot rule out the use of oils.
Be mindful of the comedogenic rating of plant oils before applying them on the face.
Comedogenic oils are oils that clog the pores and they have a rating of 4-5
They include cocoa butter, coconut butter, coconut oil, linseed oil, flaxseed oil, palm oil and wheat germ oil.
The comedogenic rating of oils is between 0- 5
0- will not clog pores
1- has low comedogenic rate
2- moderately low
3- moderate
