Ingredients rated 3–5 that appear after position 15 are usually present below about 1%, so they are shown as "Low amount" and do not trigger the pore-clog alert. Ratings come from the Fulton comedogenic scale (0–5) and published Malassezia research. They are a rough guide: the concentration and the whole formula matter, and everyone's skin is different.

Acne-safe breakdown

We found no ingredients rated 3 or higher in Geek & Gorgeous Hydration Station. The ingredients doing most of the work are Aqua, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride and Allantoin, which are all low-risk for pores.
