One of my biggest pet peeves is misinformation. Oils for your face and skin are not comedogenic. They work with your skin, not against it. Many oils are very similar in molecular structure to our own sebum. Almost identical. Your skin loses sebum as you age your own oil. So when you apply oils to your skin, which go back thousands of years, actually your skin recognizes it. It's almost like, ah, come on in, and you start to look more plump and youthful and glowy. Oils work with your skin. Oils are amazing for your skin. They're actually the original moisturizer.
