Acne Expert Marie-Claire Cates is back on my YouTube channel and this time we’re talking the best acne-friendly foundations for dark skin and some skincare ingredients to watch out for if you have acne-prone skin.
Watch the video below for the full tea. All of the foundations mentioned are linked in the description box of the video. You can click here to get there.
I wanted to list out some of the ingredients Marie-Claire mentioned to watch out for if you have acne-prone skin. Make sure you watch the video to understand the context. And also keep in mind these are ingredients to WATCH OUT for IF you have ACNE-PRONE skin. This isn’t an overall ban list…lol.

Again, watch the video above for context. Also these are ingredients to watch out for IF you have acne-prone skin. If your favorites have these ingredients in them and you don’t feel they’ve posed an issue, continue as you have. But if you have acne-prone skin and need a starting point to figure out what could be triggering breakouts, this post is for you. This post is not meant to incite fear mongering over ingredients as the ingredients mention here will not have the same effect on everyone’s skin. But if you’re acne prone, it’s a place to start looking to rule out anything that can be causing more breakouts.
