I'm 44 and have had blackheads and closed white heads for at least a decade now. Argan oil has a ZERO rating on the comedogenic (acne causing) scale, out of 0-5. Coconut oil is much higher. I suggest looking at the scale before trying any other products suggested.

I have a dry skin and since I start using this product I got breakout on my face. As soon as I stopped using everything was gone after few days. I used to use different brand from Wegmans and never had a problem. Maybe there is something about that specific brand or my skin is very sensitive.

I am 59, so my skin is very different than a young persons skin. Overall my skin is clearer after using this oil, and other organic oils to both cleanse my skin and as a first step moisturizer. I bought a big jar or organic cooking grade coconut oil (which comes in a solid form) which I like and Organic Jojoba oil. My skin seems to get used to a product quickly and not show the great results that occur at first for very long. I do have adult acne (oh wonderful!) on both sides of my chin, and I can't really tell if it makes it worse, it hasn't made it go away. (Look up honey and cinnamon on Google for this treatment of acne, I am going to try it). Hope this helps. My friends daughter 14 tried to use the argon oil, and did have immediate break outs.

I cannot answer for myself, but my daughter has been using coconut oil for a moisturizer on her face and she looks fantastic. We both have had issues with oily skin that will be fine this week, then broken out crazy the next. I thought she was crazy to put anything with the word "oil" in it on her face, but I'm just amazed at how clear her skin has gotten and it doesn't look oily either. I bought the argan oil for my hair. I used it maybe twice and I really liked it for that. Then it came up missing, so I have a feeling my younger daughter may have liked it too.

Im unsure if it is okay for acne prone skin, but I occasionally use this on my face.

I actually have really oily skin on my face and I have found that the more often you moisturize, the less oily your skin will be. Yes, this works very well with my skin :)

I honestly didn't breakout when I used this which is why I loved it. If you broke out from using it then perhaps this product isnt for you :[ or maybe your skin is just adjusting to the product. Give it a couple weeks and if it doesn't go away then it's time to try something new.

I purchased this product and am unable to use it because it makes my skin break out. Products like this that contain oil usually do cause breakouts for me and this one is 100% oil. So, I would say that unless you think this will cause your skin to break out, it would be okay for you.

I use it on my face and my body multiple times per week. I haven't had any breakouts, and it doesn't have a super-oily appearance. Just don't drown your face with it. You just have to let it sit for 15 minutes or so, and it will settle in. I layer it with moisturizer/lotion. The white coating also fades a bit as it dries.

As long as you do not use too much (you only need a small drop for your entire face), it will not make your face greasy. Once you put it on, give it a few minutes to settle in to your skin. I absolutely love it and it has replaced all other moisturizers for me.

I have used it around my eyes for the past 2 months and it does seem to help with my wrinkles. I don't have problems with acne or blackheads though.....it has not caused any breakouts but once again i only use around my eyes.

I am honestly not sure. I've looked over ingredients and there shouldnt be anything that makes you break out, however I think the product made me breakout. I'm not 100% it was the product but I stopped using ut just in case. I was really excited about finally finding a pure/non-toxic tinted moisturizer and I dont want to waste it, so I will probably give it another try. Give it a shot!

I use it as my sole moisturizer. It will depend on your skin and climate. I rarely wear makeup and use 3-4 drops of this after I wash my face and I'm good to go except in the dead of winter. It also completely tamed my rosacea, which is why I started using it. So the moisturizer thing was a bonus!

I have normal to dry skin that is prone to breaking out if I use anything too oily in nature. This didn't make me breakout however I stopped using it because I found it to be itchy.

I use it as a moisturizer as per my dermatologists instructions. You just wash your face with whatever you usually would bit absorbs well and isn't greasy.

I don't see why not, however, I usually don't. I tend to break out if I use anything other than my usual moisturizer on my face. Also, I'm really particular about smells. This does not smell "bad", but my moisturizer just smells "better."

I have very dry skin and this did not dry it more. I used it for eczema, so I can't answer about acne. Sorry.

Hi EJ, I can't really answer this as I tossed my face cream after a couple of weeks. I was not at all happy with it. I felt it had absolutely no moisturizing component at all and given that no matterwhat it was otherwise if was of use to me.

I have acne prone skin and live in a hot humid climate. I don't recall that it made me break out but it is a little heavy. I think I used the whole tube but I did not buy it again. It is an effective sunscreen tho with high amounts of zinc &/or titanium which is a plus

I have sensitive skin that breaks out easily when it is irritated by face care products. I can say that this product did not cause my skin to break out with acne.
