Do peanuts cause acne?

Nicky needs to know…BTW, can peanuts cause clogged pores? The Beauty Brains respond: Nicky’s question comes to us as a comment on our post about the pore clogging properties of coconut oil. She didn’t specify whether she’s talking about eating peanuts or using them in some kind of topical DIY product. We’re not nutritionists (if we were we’d be the “Nutritional Noggins” or maybe the “Dietary Divas”) but we do know the scoop on peanut oil Peanut oil is rated “2″ on the comedogenicity scale, therefore the likelihood it will cause clogged pores that could lead to acne is Moderately Low. And you know what that means – the Peanut Butter Facial is ON. Image credit: http://0.tqn.com/d/collectibles
