Hydrogenated Mineral Oil
Oil
Oil is a hydrophobic (water-repelling) substance that can help regulate sebum production in skincare.
Can worsen Oily Skin
These ingredients are known to potentially contribute to excess oil or shine, but they don’t affect everyone the same way. Skin can be oily for many reasons, so it’s always a good idea to consider your unique skin needs when choosing products.
May cause Acne
These ingredients are known to potentially trigger breakouts, but they won’t cause acne for everyone. Everyone’s skin responds differently so what clogs pores or causes breakouts for one person might be perfectly fine for another.
May feed Fungal Acne
These ingredients are considered potential triggers for fungal acne, but not everyone will react to them. Because fungal acne can be tricky to identify and manage, it’s best to consult a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.
Explained
Hydrogenated Mineral Oil is an oil and isn't fungal acne safe. It can be bad for oily skin and be bad for acne prone skin.
