Anon Asks: I just wanted to know why do people say it is bad for your skin to sleep with makeup on? Is it bad even is its just for a couple hours? Does it really clog pores even if the makeup is non-comedogenic? Thanks!!

The RightBrain Answers:
Acne has several causes but sleeping with makeup on is not likely to trigger it unless you’re already prone to breaking out. Our friends at Acne Solutions have written a great explanation of the causes of acne. It’s more related to the level of oil your skin produces and the rate at which your skin cells slough off than it is your makeup or foundation.

The Beauty Brain’s bottom line:
A few hours of sleeping with makeup is probably not going to cause you any serious acne problems.
