Low riskMineralIrritancy 0/5

The comedogenic rating of Magnesium Aluminum Silicate is 0 out of 5.

What a 0/5 rating means

On the comedogenic scale, a 0 means it will not clog pores for essentially anyone, including very acne-prone skin. That places Magnesium Aluminum Silicate 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 Magnesium Aluminum Silicate near the end of a label is present in tiny amounts and matters far less than the same ingredient near the top.
