Propylene Glycol Isostearate
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
This ingredient is created by reacting propylene glycol with isostearic acid.
The skin conditioning property of this ingredient is both emollient and occlusive. Due to this, this ingredient may not be acne or fungal-acne safe.
