Rated by Lovi · Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes · How the Fit score works

What makes a good moisturizer for oily skin

Moisturizers with niacinamide and sodium hyaluronate help manage oily shine, while formulas with witch hazel and marine extract help minimize pores and control oil. Products with glycerin and allantoin deliver moisture effectively without contributing to oiliness.
