Things That Clog Your Pores And Cause Acne

Acne is a skin problem that affects about 90% of people during their life. There are many reasons why acne appears.

However, some things we might never have thought would cause acne actually do, and we might not even know it.

Viral Strange has collected 7 things that can cause pore-clogging and acne appearance.

Pores: We’ve all got these tiny openings in our skin for releasing sweat and oil, but for some people, they can be more temperamental than others. Or, rather, clogged pores happen more often to some of us than others. Clogged pores happen when oil doesn’t or can’t flow through them as it should, explains board-certified dermatologist Geeta Yadav, MD. “Typically, this is caused by the overproduction of oil that then becomes trapped by dead cells that haven’t properly shed from the lining of the pore. Makeup, dirt, and/or comedogenic ingredients can also block the pore, and prevent that flow of oil through it,” she says.

Comedogenic is essentially a word for pore-clogging, and while these types of ingredients aren’t the sole cause of acne and breakouts—there are several factors—they certainly won’t help the situation. “Pore-clogging ingredients make it much more likely that pimples will form,” says board-certified dermatologist Rachel Nazarian, MD. “In someone who has naturally oily skin or who harbors the bacteria that causes acne, using these ingredients is like adding gas to the fire. It’s a dangerous combination that can exacerbate acne and cause consistent breakouts.”

Coconut Oil
All three dermatologists we spoke with called out coconut oil as a common offender. “While it has a variety of health benefits, it’s highly comedogenic, especially when applied on the the face,” Palm explains. “Because it isn’t easily absorbed [into] the skin, it can trap bacteria and dead skin cells, making it detrimental for those who are acne-prone.”

«Age is just a number for her!» Jane Fonda makes appearance at the Film Festival and everyone is saying the same thing

J. Fonda immediately took center stage and established herself as the event’s queen when she made her appearance at the Cannes Film Festival. The celebrity exudes grace and unmatched charisma. She decided on a black outfit and elegant, tasteful jewelry to go with it.

Fonda boldly displayed her red lips and silver gray hair. With her full makeup for the evening, she appeared remarkably younger. Everyone began to agree that she aged like wine, but then all changed when someone pointed out a small detail that revealed her true age.

The whole point is that her hands were wrinkly, revealing that we are genuinely dealing with an 86-year-old woman, despite her impeccable beauty and elegant attire. When asked how she keeps her youthful appearance intact, she emphasizes the necessity of getting enough sleep, smiling a lot, and avoiding the sun.
