Tarte Maracuja Oil

While packing up and cleaning my bathroom last week, I stumbled across a bottle of the Tarte Maracuja Oil.  I remember being so excited about trying this oil because so many YouTubers raved about it and I liked the way the package looked.  I could tell that I had used a bit of the product but I couldn’t remember why I stopped using it.

I decided to give the product another whirl, and after using it for a week I quickly realized why I stopped using it.  Tarte promises that the Maracuja Oil won’t clog pores and is weightless and hypoallergenic.  Well… the lie detector test determined that was a lie!  The Tarte Maracuja oil is HIGHLY comedogenic which means that it blocks pores and can cause black heads or acne.  In just one week my chin was ridden with about 10 blackheads.

If your skin is oily I definitely do not recommend the Tarte Maracuja Oil for daily use.  I do however, recommend it to use as a remedy re-hydrate your skin after over exfoliating or if it becomes abnormally dry.
