Non-Comedogenic Serums That Help With Breakouts, Hydration and More
December 08, 2023
If you deal with frequent texture, breakouts and bumps on your skin, clogged pores may be the culprit. Your pores can become clogged by a daily buildup of sweat, makeup, dirt, sunscreen, oil — if it’s on your face (and it’s not cleansed properly), it can clog your pores. One way to help mitigate clogged pores is by using skincare products that are labeled “non-comedogenic.” Non-comedogenic products are lightweight and specifically designed not to clog pores. Below, we’re showcasing five of our favorite non-comedogenic serums, from a retinol to hyaluronic acid.
Non-Comedogenic Serums We Love
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Glycolic Acid Serum
This serum helps minimize the look of pores in just one week, thanks to an elixir of exfoliating glycolic acid, plus skin-smoothing hyaluronic. The fragrance-free formula is gentle enough for daily use on all skin types, including sensitive.
Vichy Normaderm BHA Exfoliating Serum
If your skin is prone to acne, this serum is one to consider adding to cart. A combination of salicylic and glycolic acids help target existing blemishes while preventing new ones from popping up, including blackheads and whiteheads. A nutrient-rich ferment compound and Vichy volcanic water help to soothe the skin.
La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum
Clog-prone skin needs hydration too — we like it in this no-frills hyaluronic acid serum. The non-comedogenic formula plumps skin and leaves it soft, supple and hydrated, with less visible fine lines.
CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum
Retinol is known for its smoothing, anti-aging and acne-fighting properties. Because it boosts cell turnover, it can also contribute to a more even and glowing complexion. This one is specifically designed to help minimize the look of post-acne dark spots and pores, leaving you with skin that’s reflective and smooth.
iNNBEAUTY PROJECT Green Machine Serum
Made with a cocktail of vitamin C, azelaic acid and non-comedogenic seed oils, this serum brightens and firms dull-looking skin. Reviewers rave about its ability to reduce the look of hyperpigmentation without being harsh or drying, even on sensitive skin types.
