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

Brand: [Bioderma](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/brands/bioderma)

This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with oily acne-prone skin: shine, breakouts, blemishes, and enlarged pores. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app.

A poor match for oily acne-prone skin; the products alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate cleansing for your oily skin, with sodium cocoamphoacetate and lauryl glucoside gently lifting impurities, but glycerin and coco-glucoside may feel too heavy for your skin type.
- While the formula provides general hydration and soothing benefits with niacinamide and glycerin, these are not targeted towards your primary concerns of acne, blemishes, and breakouts.

- Formulating sodium laureth sulphate with sodium laureth carboxylate and lauryl glucoside prevented significant decreases in cutaneous capacitance and reduced erythema and dryness in healthy volunteers compared to unsupplemented sodium laureth sulphate. ([International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2014](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24617572/))
- A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women. ([Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/))
- The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31532576/))
- Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant. ([International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2001](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18498456/))
- Niacinamide/glycerin body moisturizers provided better rapid and prolonged improvement of cosmetic xerosis through functional improvement of stratum corneum barrier function compared to no treatment and conventional moisturizers in female subjects.

## Questions and answers

### Why does Lovi advise caution with Bioderma Atoderm Huile de Douche for oily acne-prone skin?

Lovi advises caution because the glycerin and coco-glucoside in this body wash may feel too heavy for your oily skin type. While it offers general hydration and soothing benefits, it is not targeted towards your primary concerns of acne, blemishes, and breakouts. Oily acne-prone skin needs a body wash with soothing and effective ingredients like niacinamide, ceramides, probiotics, and salicylic acid to balance oil production and manage blemishes without irritation.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Which ingredients make this cleanser a poor fit for oily acne-prone skin?

Glycerin and coco-glucoside may feel too heavy for your oily skin type. A body wash for this skin needs soothing and effective ingredients like niacinamide and ceramides, or probiotics and salicylic acid, to address acne and balance oil without irritation.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### What does Glycerin do for oily acne-prone skin?

Glycerin helps keep oily acne-prone skin hydrated without feeling heavy. It draws moisture into the skin while supporting the skin barrier so it stays soft and balanced.
Sources: [The British Journal of Dermatology, 2008](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18510666/), [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### What does Niacinamide do for oily acne-prone skin?

Niacinamide helps balance oil production, calms redness, and is unlikely to irritate oily, acne-prone skin while improving blemishes. Clinical tests show it reduces excess oil and helps clear up both inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne breakouts.
Sources: [Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16766489/), [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38299457/)

### Where does this cleanser go in a skincare routine for oily acne-prone skin?

This body wash is meant for the body and is not a good fit for oily acne-prone facial skin, as heavy ingredients like glycerin and coco-glucoside may clog pores and fail to target breakouts. A body wash for this skin type needs gentle cleansing agents and blemish-fighting ingredients to keep pores clear.

### Can I use this cleanser with retinol, and in what order?

You can use this body wash with retinol, but it may feel too heavy for oily acne-prone skin. A product of this type used with acne treatments needs ingredients that gently lift impurities while keeping pores clear without weighing the skin down.

### How often should I use this cleanser?

This body wash is a poor match for your oily acne-prone skin, as ingredients like glycerin and coco-glucoside may feel too heavy and it lacks acne-targeting benefits. If you still choose to use it, limit the frequency and watch for breakouts, as oily skin needs lightweight, non-clogging cleansers with clarifying ingredients.

### Can this cleanser clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for oily acne-prone skin?

This body wash may feel too heavy for your oily skin and does not target acne or breakouts. Oily acne-prone skin needs a lightweight cleanser with ingredients that help clear pores and control excess oil.

### Is this cleanser fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (parfum).
