Our Story

While working on thousands of faces as a medical aesthetician, I kept seeing the same frustrating pattern: clients were investing in professional treatments, but their results were being slowed down—sometimes completely reversed—by the products they were using at home.


That led me deep into research, and I discovered something eye-opening through medical journals and dermatology resources: the pore-clogging scale, also known as the comedogenic scale.


This scale ranks ingredients from 0 to 5 based on how likely they are to clog your pores (with 0 being completely safe and 5 being highly comedogenic). 

What shocked me was how many “clean,” “natural,” or even “acne-safe” products were packed with ingredients rated 3 or higher—meaning they were almost guaranteed to cause breakouts for anyone prone to acne.


This discovery changed the way I viewed skincare. It became my mission to create formulas that are truly non-pore-clogging, based on science—not marketing.


Every product in my skincare line is developed with this scale in mind, so you can be confident that nothing in your routine is secretly sabotaging your skin.

I hope you love Starlight Skin products are see first hand the value of using products that don’t clog your pores. XOXO Kaye

⭐ The Pore-Clogging Scale: What You Need to Know

What Is the Pore-Clogging Scale?

The pore-clogging (comedogenicity) scale ranks ingredients on a scale of 0 to 5 based on how likely they are to clog your pores:

0 – Non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores)

1 – Very low likelihood

2 – Low likelihood

3 – Moderate likelihood

4 – High likelihood

5 – Very high likelihood (likely to clog pores for most people)

How Was It Discovered?

Our founder, after reviewing thousands of ingredients in dermatology journals and clinical studies, noticed a pattern: many “acne-safe” products still contained hidden pore-clogging ingredients rated 3 or higher. We began cross-referencing medical journals, peer-reviewed cosmetic science data, and professional ingredient assessments—and it completely transformed our treatment results.

Why It Matters

If you're struggling with acne, blackheads, or congested skin, even the most expensive skincare won’t help if it contains ingredients that block your pores. Many common skincare and makeup products are secretly working against you. That’s why every Starlight Skin formula is carefully screened to avoid comedogenic ingredients. Whether you’re receiving treatments in our clinic or using our products at home, you can trust that your skin is never fighting against hidden irritants or breakout triggers.

Our Promise

💡 Pro Tip: Always Check Your Labels

Even popular “clean” or “natural” products can contain coconut oil, algae extract, or shea butter—ingredients that rank high on the pore-clogging scale. Our advice? If it’s not 0, don’t risk it.

For your skin to reach its full potential and radiance, all Starlight Steps are recommended and considered essential. Without all critical products your skin may see a lessened improvement, although some positive changes should still be noticed.

The Starlight Skin products are designed to work in perfect synergy with each other and are therefore recommended for your best results, although some products from other brands may yield positive changes if they follow Starlight’s philosophy of 1) having ingredients that are proven to work 2) contain no unnecessary fragrances or dyes 3) do not rate on the comedogenic scale.  

You will notice that when searching a product ingredient’scomedogenic rating one by one, that most products available on the market do in fact rate on this scale.

The “Check Ingredients” tab underneath “Learn More” on this website will show you the ratings for many common ingredients. If the ingredient does not show here, do a simple search engine check of the ingredient, along with the words “comedogenic rating”. If it does rate on the comedogenic scale you should be able to find the number value by doing this.
