Camphor Comedogenic Rating: 2/5

Low riskActiveIrritancy 2/5

The comedogenic rating of Camphor is 2 out of 5.

What a 2/5 rating means

On the comedogenic scale, a 2 is still within the non-comedogenic range that dermatologists generally consider low-risk. That places Camphor in the range most people, including many with acne-prone skin, tolerate well.

One thing the number cannot tell you is concentration. Ingredients are listed in descending order, so Camphor near the end of a label is present in tiny amounts and matters far less than the same ingredient near the top.
