Ok so I dont know if theres any link here. People take zinc to help there acne. Mineral makeups contact zinc oxide..is this the same thing? Zinc oxide is used in desitin, which Ive oddly heard that some people put this on their face for acne for some reason. Another thing...mineral makeup also has iron oxide and zinc oxide together, these two corabined make up calamine, which calamine lotion is also one of those odd treatments for acne.

So being from this, does anyone think that this mineral makeup can be beneficial for acne?
