Do raw eggs cause acne?

Do raw or undercooked eggs give anyone else acne? I think that I break out after eating eggs sunny-side up, or a fair amount of mayonnaise such as in chicken salad.

Answer #1

I would think the oils in those items are more likely to cause breakouts than the eggs themselves.

Eggs are generally cooked in oil or butter, and mayo also has oil in it.

That doesn’t mean it can’t happen - try eating your eggs poached or hard-cooked for a little while (cut out as much oil from your diet as you can) and see if there’s a difference.

Answer #2

Anything that has oil in it can definitly get you to break out. Mayonaise is a big culprit in many cases. So yes, it can.
