Acne is a skin problem that affects about 90% of people during their life. There are many reasons why acne appears.
However, some things we might never have thought would cause acne actually do, and we might not even know it.
Viral Strange has collected 7 things that can cause pore-clogging and acne appearance.
Pores: We’ve all got these tiny openings in our skin for releasing sweat and oil, but for some people, they can be more temperamental than others. Or, rather, clogged pores happen more often to some of us than others. Clogged pores happen when oil doesn’t or can’t flow through them as it should, explains board-certified dermatologist Geeta Yadav, MD. “Typically, this is caused by the overproduction of oil that then becomes trapped by dead cells that haven’t properly shed from the lining of the pore. Makeup, dirt, and/or comedogenic ingredients can also block the pore, and prevent that flow of oil through it,” she says.
Comedogenic is essentially a word for pore-clogging, and while these types of ingredients aren’t the sole cause of acne and breakouts—there are several factors—they certainly won’t help the situation. “Pore-clogging ingredients make it much more likely that pimples will form,” says board-certified dermatologist Rachel Nazarian, MD. “In someone who has naturally oily skin or who harbors the bacteria that causes acne, using these ingredients is like adding gas to the fire. It’s a dangerous combination that can exacerbate acne and cause consistent breakouts.”
Coconut Oil
All three dermatologists we spoke with called out coconut oil as a common offender. “While it has a variety of health benefits, it’s highly comedogenic, especially when applied on the the face,” Palm explains. “Because it isn’t easily absorbed [into] the skin, it can trap bacteria and dead skin cells, making it detrimental for those who are acne-prone.”

It’s hard to believe, but the internationally renowned actress is already 78 years old, while her partner has reached the tender age of 73.
Their extraordinary love story began on Valentine’s Day in 1983 and is still an inspiring story of connection that does not require the bond of marriage.
Despite the constant media attention and the prying eyes of the paparazzi, they have no plans to break up. Their bond seems unbreakable and they enjoy spending time together on vacation, regularly making headlines.
Recently, the actress came into the limelight when she was photographed in a bikini, which received mixed reactions. Some criticized her for her naturally aged appearance, but her partner Russell immediately rushed to her defense.
He still sees his wife as a timeless beauty and defends her decision not to marry. Russell emphasizes that their independence and the freedom to manage their relationship as they see fit are of great importance to both of them.
