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

A poor match for oily skin; the moisturizers alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate hydration benefits for your oily skin, but the presence of shea butter and jojoba seed oil may pose risks of exacerbating oiliness and shine due to their emollient properties.
- The formula's occlusive ingredients like shea butter and dimethicone offer limited benefits for oil control and may exacerbate oiliness and pore congestion on your oily skin.

## Questions and answers

### Why does Lovi advise caution with Dermalogica Super Rich Repair for oily skin?

This cream may make oily skin even shinier and clog pores because it contains heavy oils and heavy sealants that do not help control oil. Oily skin needs a lightweight moisturizer with peptides and hydrating agents that lack heavy oils, support the skin barrier, and manage shine without causing breakouts.

### Which ingredients make this cream a poor fit for oily skin?

Shea butter and jojoba seed oil make this cream a poor fit for oily skin because their heavy textures may increase shine and clog pores. Oily skin needs lightweight moisturizers with peptides and hydrating agents that balance moisture without heavy oils or breakout risks.

### What does Butyrospermum Parkii Butter do for oily skin?

Butyrospermum parkii butter is a rich ingredient that may feel too heavy for oily skin and can sometimes clog pores. For oily skin, a moisturizer needs lighter ingredients that hydrate without feeling greasy or heavy.

### What does Jojoba Seed Oil do for oily skin?

Jojoba seed oil helps balance oily skin by providing lightweight moisture that is unlikely to clog pores. It may also calm redness and soothe irritation thanks to its natural soothing properties.

### Where does it go in a skincare routine for oily skin?

This product is used as a moisturizer in the morning and evening, but it is a poor match for oily skin because heavy ingredients like shea butter and jojoba seed oil may increase shine and clog pores. Oily skin needs lightweight, oil-free moisturizers with balancing ingredients like niacinamide or hyaluronic acid to stay hydrated without feeling heavy.

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

This heavy cream is a poor match for oily skin because ingredients like shea butter and jojoba oil may cause extra shine and clogged pores. When used alongside retinol, an oily skin type needs a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer with hyaluronic acid and niacinamide to keep the skin hydrated and clear without feeling heavy.

### How often should I use it?

This heavy treatment cream is a poor match for oily skin, as heavy oils and sealants may increase shine and clog pores. An oily skin type needs lightweight, oil-free hydration and pore-clearing ingredients to stay fresh and balanced.

### Can it clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for oily skin?

Yes, it may clog pores and increase shine on oily skin because heavy ingredients like shea butter and jojoba seed oil can trap oil and feel too greasy. A product for this skin needs lightweight, oil-free hydration and ingredients that help control oil without clogging pores.

### Can I use this cream around the eyes or on my body?

This heavy moisturizing treatment is not a good match for the thin skin around your eyes or for your body, as its rich oils and heavy textures may easily clog pores and add unwanted shine. Oily skin requires lightweight lotions containing hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and gentle exfoliants that hydrate without feeling heavy or greasy.

### Is it fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (linalool, citronellol, and geraniol).
