Concealer:
Thick or creamy concealers may also clog pores if not suitable for your skin type or if left on for extended periods.
Powder:
While powder can help set makeup, certain powders with talc or heavy ingredients may contribute to pore blockage.
Blush:
Cream or oil-based blushes can be problematic for acne-prone skin, as they may exacerbate oiliness and clog pores.
Bronzer:
Similar to blush, bronzer formulations that are heavy or contain pore-clogging ingredients can lead to breakouts.
Highlighter:
Some highlighters contain shimmer particles or oils that can cause irritation and breakouts.
Primer:
Certain primers, especially those with silicone-based ingredients, can create a barrier that traps oil and bacteria.
Makeup Brushes and Sponges:
