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 Mango Butter 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 Mango Butter near the end of a label is present in tiny amounts and matters far less than the same ingredient near the top.
About Mango Butter
It is a rich plant butter that melts at skin temperature, prized for cushiony moisture. A lighter tree-nut butter generally rated around 2/5, often chosen as a less-clogging alternative to cocoa butter.
On a label it can read as Mango Butter, Mangifera Indica Seed Butter — worth knowing when you scan an ingredient deck.
Mango Butter in makeup and skincare
You'll meet it in stick foundations, cream products, and rich lip colour, as well as body and face creams. Its irritancy is rated separately at 0/5, which is low.
If you deal with fungal acne (malassezia folliculitis) rather than ordinary clogged pores, note that Mango Butter is among the fatty-acid or ester-type ingredients that community sources commonly avoid — a separate concern from its comedogenic score, and one with weaker evidence behind it.
