The 14 Best Facial Oils for Acne-Prone Skin for 2019

Five years ago, if you'd told us using face oil in our skin-care routines could help treat acne, we'd have thought you were out of your mind: It seemed obvious that oil (which, we were told, clogged pores and caused breakouts) was to be avoided like the plague.
