The ingredients might be clogging your pores resulting in your breakout. Stop and see what happens.

I have recently started using facial moisturiser and my skin is soft but I’m starting to see pimples. I’m using vaseline face wash and moisturiser. May this be a bad product for my face, even I was body lotion on my face and it worked okay?

great points- also (as a manufacturer) i use quite different essential oils in my body blends to the face and also a different %.

That’s very interesting but unfortunately, we don”t have these brands here. But it’s good that you’ve found some suitable for your face and they’re really affordable.

YES! but it depends on the lotion… Most body lotions will clog your pores but some wont and a few will actually help to unclog your pores. Its really easy to find them, just read the back of the bottle and it will specifically say if it doesn’t clog pores and/or will help to unclog them (look for the term “non-comedogenic” which means ‘will not clog pores’). From my own experience, I can recommend the new NutriSkin Lotions from Dial (won’t clog pores but won’t help to unclog them; WalMart- 3oz bottle is $2 and 12oz bottle is $4) and the Peaches& Cream moisturizer from Kiss My Face (won’t clog pores and will help to unclog them; WalMart- I’ve seen it stocked a few times in the clearance section of the beauty/lotion area and the 4oz bottle is only $2, Walgreens always has it but their 4oz bottle is $5 and 16oz $11, you can also order it online from kissmyface.com). I hope this is helpful… At least now you wont have to waste money on over-priced face moisturizers!
