Comedogenic rating

So what’s a Comedogenic rating and why is it important?

Comedogenic refers to the ability of a product to block pores.
High comedogenic means that it readily blocks pores.
An example of such an oil is coconut oil.

One of the reasons we chose olive oil for Olive & Bee, is that it has a low comedogenic rating.
It doesn’t block pores and is readily absorbed by the body.

So, whether oils are safe to use vaginally depends on the oil.
Olive oil, and Olive & Bee, are safe choices for vaginal use.
