Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate hydration for your oily skin, as Glycerin and Sodium Hyaluronate provide humectant benefits without adding excess oil. However, these ingredients do not directly address your primary concern of oily shine.
- The inclusion of Allantoin and Althaea Rosea Flower Extract contributes to a soothing experience, which is beneficial for maintaining overall skin comfort.
- The product is safe for your oily skin, with no harsh ingredients and a formulation designed to avoid irritation.
How to apply
- Could be used as part of your AM or PM routine. Start using your sheet mask 3 times a week and increase if your skin likes it.
- Apply your sheet mask after cleansing and toning, but before putting on your moisturizer.
- Place the sheet mask smoothly over your face and gently press it down without rubbing.
- Put the mask on clean and slightly dry skin for the best results and comfort.
- Avoid the eye area and do a simple patch test before using it for the first time.

Questions and answers
How well does Simple Rich Moisture Sheet Mask work for oily skin?
This mask works reasonably well for your oily skin, offering moderate hydration without adding excess oil, though it does not directly control oily shine. Oily skin of this type needs soothing and hydrating ingredients alongside oil-controlling or mattifying properties to deliver optimal results.
Which ingredients make this mask a good fit for oily skin?
Glycerin and Sodium Hyaluronate help provide moderate hydration without adding excess oil, while Allantoin and Althaea Rosea Flower Extract help calm the skin. Oily skin needs ingredients that control shine and keep pores clear.
What does Niacinamide do for oily skin?
Niacinamide helps balance oily skin by significantly reducing excess oil production and shine. It is well tolerated and may improve skin texture without clogging pores.
Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy, 2006Antioxidants, 2021
What does Glycerin do for oily skin?
Glycerin helps keep oily skin hydrated without feeling heavy and supports the skin barrier. Because this product is a weak fit for your skin, an ideal product of this type needs lightweight hydrators and ingredients that balance oil while protecting the skin.
The British Journal of Dermatology, 2008International Journal of Toxicology, 2019
Where does this mask go in a skincare routine for oily skin?
This nourishing mask fits into a weekly routine for oily skin after cleansing and exfoliating, and before applying a hydrating toner, treatment, and moisturizer. To truly control oily shine, this skin needs products with ingredients like niacinamide that target excess oil production directly.
Can I use this mask with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this mask in your routine, applying it after your retinol treatment to help soothe your skin. The product is safe for oily skin and helps maintain comfort without irritation, though an oily skin type needs ingredients that directly target excess shine.
How often should I use this mask?
You can use this nourishing mask once a week as an extra step in your weekly routine. It is safe for oily skin and unlikely to cause irritation, though other products fit your skin better.
Can this mask clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for oily skin?
This mask is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on oily skin, as it has a gentle formula designed to avoid irritation. However, because it does not directly address oily shine, oily skin often needs products with ingredients like niacinamide or salicylic acid to help control excess oil.
Is this mask fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
