True or False? Eating greasy foods will NOT flare acne.

True. Eating greasy foods is obviously not a good nutrition habit, but there is no scientific evidence that greasy foods cause or worsen acne. However, there is evidence that working in a greasy environment, such as a fast-food restaurant, may worsen acne due to the skin being exposed to the airborne grease from frying foods. I have seen this and it is hard to treat if you continue to work in that kind of environment.

True or False? Mineral oil causes clogged pores.

False. This is a very common belief among both aestheticians and consumers. The truth is that pharmaceutical-grade or cosmetic mineral oil is noncomedogenic. It does NOT clog pores. However, mineral oil cannot penetrate the skin, making it only useful as a skin protectant and not a moisturizer. Therefore it is best to avoid moisturizers, creams & lotions with mineral oil as they will not hydrate your skin.
