# Good Molecules-focused skincare routine for oily acne-prone skin

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/au/brands/good-molecules/skincare-routine/for/oily-acne-prone-skin

The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Australia.

A routine for oily acne-prone skin built around Good Molecules products, complemented by other brands where they fit better, for complete care.

Cleansers and toners with [salicylic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/salicylic-acid), [glycolic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/glycolic-acid), and [willow bark extract](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/willow-bark) help clear out pores and reduce breakouts. Moisturizers and [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/serum) with [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/niacinamide) help control shine and manage blemishes.

The morning routine prepares the skin for the day: it cleans off the night, hydrates, and protects, with sunscreen as its last step. The evening routine removes sunscreen, makeup, and the day's oil, then treats the skin while it rests and is away from the sun. The weekly routine takes the place of the evening routine once a week and adds the deeper steps to target shine, breakouts, blemishes, and enlarged pores.

### Step 7 Moisturizer

Moisturizers with hyaluronic acid and niacinamide help keep skin soft and manage shine, while versions with panthenol, ceramides, and snail secretion filtrate support skin repair and hydration. These formulas are used every morning and every evening, and once a week in place of the evening routine.
