No ingredient known to feed Malassezia, the yeast behind fungal acne — the same screen as our fungal acne checker. Ferments and fatty alcohols, which the checker marks “possible”, are allowed. Product not here? Check it yourself — paste its ingredient list.
No ingredient with a published comedogenic rating of 3 or higher — the same rule as our pore-clogging checker. Product not here? Check it yourself — paste its ingredient list.

Key: Vitamin C
Fungal acne (Malassezia folliculitis) is driven by a yeast that feeds on fatty acids and the oils, butters, esters, polysorbates and lecithin made of them. A product is on this list only when none of its ingredients is one of those triggers — the same screen as our fungal acne checker, applied to the full ingredient list rather than the label claim. Ferments, fatty alcohols (cetyl, cetearyl) and squalene, which the checker marks “possible”, do not exclude a product.
No. A fungal-acne safe product only avoids feeding the yeast. Fungal acne itself is treated with antifungals such as ketoconazole or clotrimazole, usually on a doctor's or pharmacist's advice; these facial oils are what to use alongside without making it worse.
None of the ingredients has a published comedogenic rating of 3 or higher on the 0–5 scale — the same rule our pore-clogging checker uses, so any product here passes it when you paste its ingredient list.
Not for certain. Comedogenic ratings come from old rabbit-ear and patch tests at high concentrations, so they are a rough guide, not a guarantee. If a product still breaks you out, the cause can be the overall formula, how often you use it, or something other than clogged pores.
