Hello,
lately my acne is really bad again and I want to change some of the products I‘m using.

All I know about acne is all that the cosmetologist told me, and I think you need to consult with a cosmetologist

Unfortunately, I am no chemist. But you are right to be concerned about comedogenic products. You certainly do need non-comedogenic products to protect your skin. Also, even problem skin needs to be treated gently. This sounds obvious, but I'd avoid skin peels and harsh products that strip the skin.

Gentle skincare is best. For every type of skin.
