Do moisturizers clog pores?

Do moisturizers clog pores? The answer is yes, in most situations, they will clog them and block the release of sebum which can cause acne and different skin issues!

I'm sure that what I'm saying here is going to sound so controversial and so out of the ordinary to most people, after all, you use moisturizers to help your pores and to improve your skin to develop and stay healthy, however, because most brands offer moisturizers that contain huge amounts of saturated fats and lots of chemicals ranging from mineral oils to even preservatives and different perfumes, I highly believe that moisturizers are powerful comodogenics , in other words, they will clog your pores.

Does this mean that you should avoid using them?

Absolutely not, they are essential, at least, the brands that offer quality ones that are made with organic compounds and the ones that contain as little chemicals as possible, these are the ones I use myself!

You have to remember this: every week, you should try to cleanse and unclog your pores, and here are the techniques you need to use, they are very easy and they will give you amazing results as well:

The first technique to unclog your pores is to use a clay, most importantly, multani mitti/Fullers Earth.

I'm a huge fan of this amazing ingredient because it will not only unclog pores, but it will also get rid of as much fatty substances in them as possible, the ones that are responsible for harboring dangerous bacteria, and the ones that are responsible for causing acne and other skin problems.

So, mix two tablespoons of multani mitti, Fullers Earth, with two tablespoons of warm water or even better, rose water, and then apply to your face for forty-five minutes, then, rinse using lukewarm water.

The second solution to unclog your pores, if they are clogged by moisturizers, is to use an acidic substance, and the best ingredient to use is lemon juice.

So, squeeze a lemon and use its juice, massage your face and weak skin area for approximately 10 minutes, and then rinse using lukewarm water, and this is how you can unclog your pores easily.

Please, if you have a question about moisturizers clogging your pores, don't hesitate to ask me, I'm here to help you.
