Can topicrem ultra moisturizing body lotion make my acne worse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heavier lotions and creams can worsen congestion of pores and lead to increased oil production that can exacerbate acne breakouts. Try a serum or hydrating gel that contains hyaluronic acid. Look for lightweight moisturizers, serums or gels that are water-based rather than oil-based. The label should say oil-free or non-comedogenic to be sure.
