Curated Picks
Every product personally screened for both toxic AND comedogenic ingredients. I have already done the research. You just shop.
The Standard
After 20 years of buying products that did not work and wasting thousands of dollars, I do not recommend things lightly. Every product below has passed both screens. That is not easy to do.
Screen 01
Zero harmful chemicals, preservatives, or synthetic fragrances. Checked against all flagged toxic ingredients in the database.
Screen 02
Nothing that clogs pores or triggers breakouts. Checked against all comedogenic ingredients in the database. Both screens. No exceptions.
Screen 03
Only products that actually improve skin health. Passing the ingredient screens is the floor, not the ceiling.
Some links on this page are affiliate links. I earn a small commission if you purchase through them at no extra cost to you. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Every product has been personally screened through the dual methodology before it lands here. I only recommend things I would use myself. Most of these are in my current routine. Your support through these links helps keep the Ingredient Microscope free.
I am constantly adding new products as I find ones that pass both screens. Do not see a category you need? Send me an email and let me know what you are looking for.
