Oryza Sativa Bran Extract comedogenic rating: 0/5 — does it clog pores?
Quick answer: No — Oryza Sativa Bran Extract is non-comedogenic (rated 0/5) and is not known to clog pores. It is not a common fungal-acne trigger.
Oryza Sativa Bran Extract is considered non-comedogenic — it is not known to clog pores and is generally a safe choice for acne-prone skin.
Basis for this rating: Rated 0 because Oryza Sativa Bran Extract does not appear on any comedogenic reference list we track. That is an absence of reports, not a positive clinical test — treat it as 'no known concern' rather than 'proven safe'.
What is Oryza Sativa Bran Extract?
Oryza Sativa Bran Extract is a botanical (plant) extract. You'll most often see it in 'natural' and plant-based serums, creams, toners and masks.

Is Oryza Sativa Bran Extract comedogenic?

How we rate comedogenicity — and its limits
The 0–5 comedogenicity scale comes from dermatology research that measured how much individual ingredients clogged pores, originally using the rabbit-ear assay (Fulton et al., 1984). A rating reflects an ingredient's potential to clog pores at high concentration — not a guarantee that any finished product will break you out.
That distinction matters. A later review (Draelos & DiNardo, 2006) found that a single ingredient's comedogenic score does not reliably predict how a complete formula behaves on real skin: concentration, the rest of the formula, and your own skin all change the result. So read Oryza Sativa Bran Extract's 0/5 as a risk signal — most useful when the ingredient sits near the top of the list — rather than a verdict on one specific product.
