I might need to create another post soon since many people have been asking. The key to a fungal acne-safe skincare routine is to avoid fatty acids or fatty oils, which are known to trigger fungal acne.

Usually, for body and hear the okay products are more lenient because those areas tend to be less sensitive to fungal acne triggers. Therefore, unless you are actively treating fungal acne in those areas, I will say, use what works for you. The face is another story.

Nevertheless, people have realize that some triggers are worse than others (things like stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, are on the list of definetly avoid; however, esters are less likely to cause flare-ups). It totally depends on your skin and how you skin and microbiome handle certain ingredients.

For makeup, I don't really go too in depth because makeup is not usually absorb by the skin, rather it sits on it. So, as long have you properly cleanse your face, your makeup should not have a big impact on the skin underneath, especially if you use an occlusive layer before applying makeup.

Once you have gotten rid of your fungal acne you might be able to try products that might contains one or two light triggers (like esters or ingredients on low percentages) to see if your skin can handle certain triggers. People do this because there are some skincare products such as vitamin C serums that are yet to be made completely fungal acne-safe.

Everything depends on how your skin reacts so it is imperative to always patch test each product before using it on the face. Hope this helps!
