The results were as follow : 1) Among the 14 cosmetics, extremely weak comedogenicity was shown in one cosmetic, mild comedogenicity in 10 cosmetics and moderate comedogenicity in 3 cosmetics. 2) There were no significant differences of comedogenicity among cosmetic species. 3) The rabbit ear assay was a rapid, effective screening test for evaluation of comedogenicity of cosmetics.
