Does this oil make your skin break out? Many reviewers say no. I have combo/oily skin and breakout off and on during the month, mostly cystic type.

My skin sounds similar to yours. Ive been using this for about a month and havent had any issues.

It doesn't make my skin break out really, but it smells awful and I wouldn't recommend buying it. It is a cheaper brand and would be worth a little extra to get a better product.

No it doesn't. I have an oily t-zone and also breakout around the same time. Plus I'm very sensitive to products (in general), and this product is great! It's not greasy one bit, and I never break out from it. I use 4-5 drops before my usual moisturizer in the winter. It's a great extra layer of moisture in this freezing weather. If I use it in the summer time, which I rarely do, I don't add moisturizer on top.

Once I started using this my combination/congested skin improved greatly. It sounds weird putting oil on an oily face- but it actually tricks your skin to stop producing as much oil. My breakouts now are rare, and I use it every night and morning under my bb cream. Plus your not putting synthetic chemicals on your face!

No, in fact it reduces breakouts. I have oily skin and breakout easily and it has helped so much. If I do get a zit, it is small and goes away the next day.

Not at all. In fact, I think it's reduced the number of breakouts I get. I use a very small amount each night, and it seems to keep my face from getting oily during the day.

I have acne prone skin and it's super sensitive, I've been using this oil every day (twice a day) for moisturizing and I like a lot, not break outs so far :)

I have acne prone skin and this product did make me break out. I think that it was the jojoba and sunflower oils in it, but it could have been something else in it.

Hi, I use it on my face and it is quite oily. First couple weeks were okay, break-out wise. However, a couple days ago I started breaking out quite bad. I don't know if it's this product causing it or something else.I definitely blot this after applying and but it still makes the hair around my face stringy. :P

I use it on my face and my body multiple times per week. I haven't had any breakouts, and it doesn't have a super-oily appearance. Just don't drown your face with it. You just have to let it sit for 15 minutes or so, and it will settle in. I layer it with moisturizer/lotion. The white coating also fades a bit as it dries.

I have the same problem! I love this stuff! NO more minor breakouts and not too oily or dry. My skin feels silky! During the day I do balance the slight oily feeling with all day wear makeup which I previously couldn't use cause it would be too dry and flaky looking in the dry spots! My skin is so clear and some of the lines are disappearing! Truth! At night it feels a little greasy, but when I wake up...bam! Baby butt skin! Lol

Oh geez, no, myself and my husband and niece and brother all use it daily and have never had an issue with breaking out. Could be you are allergic to something in it?

Yes. I have very oily skin as well which is why I chose this product. It is a gel, so non-greasy and soothing to the skin. I have been using it for at least a year now and it doesn't cause breakout nor add to my oily skin issue.

I have acne prone skin and I've been mixing this in with my moisturizers, and it leaves my skin well moisturized and with a nice glow, but not greasy. It doesn't cause any acne for me--in fact, my skin is the clearest it's ever been. However, you should be careful about the amount you use; if you use so much that it can't all absorb into your skin and instead sits on top of your skin, it could attract bacteria and cause more acne.

I have oily skin with sometime break outs and it still works for me. No excessive oil feel to face and no break outs from it so far. Been using it now for a few years.

I have really oily skin prone to acne and this does wonders for my skin! Makes it feel so smooth and clean, I find that it does really smooth my skin out. Hope this helps!

As everyones skin is different I can say I personally don't have a issue with it causing acne. Ive recommend this product to quite a lot of people & have never seen anyone say it caused them to get acne.I've actually had people tell me it seemed to help to get rid of there acne!!

After using this a while now you only need a little bit although if you have major oily skin and where a lot of makeup over it it might cause breakout for me it makes my makeup go on smoother, you want to keep it sealed tight or it may become dryer out and crumbly. For me it smells good, helps with make up staying on longer and giving me a smooth all around look. It's not for people who have breakouts a lot though.

Does not cause breakouts when used as a moisturizer. IDK if it stops them. I won't use any other moisturizer when I break out, and it is perfect after a peel partly for this reason.

I have combination skin and haven't had a problem with the oily areas. It leaves an initial greasy feel on your face so it's best to use at night to let it soak in. By morning my skin is soft, supple, and not oily at all!

I agree About olive oil, I do not have any experience with almond oil. Jojoba oil is not as greasy and believe me if anything was going to cause breakouts, it would happen to me and it never has with this oil. I only use oil on my face and have tried many types, this is one of my favorites:) I hope this helps.

Interestingly, I just started doing this a few weeks ago. I live in the Caribbean where the weather is VERY hot and I find that since I started using it as a moisturizer, my face is actually less oily. It kinda leaves a tight feeling for a few minutes and then the feeling wears off. I totally recommend giving it a try.
