Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works

Lovi Assistant explains

  • Moderately unsuitable for your oily skin due to emollients like squalane and caprylic capric triglyceride, which may feel heavy and contribute to excess shine.
  • While oat and squalane offer moderate moisturizing and barrier resilience, these benefits are largely irrelevant to your primary concern of oily shine.

How to apply

  • Could be used as part of your AM or PM routine every day to keep your face fresh.
  • Apply this moisturizer after cleansing and toning, but right before your SPF in the morning.
  • Gently press a small amount into your skin and let it absorb fully.
  • Apply on clean, slightly dry skin to help control that oily shine.
  • Avoid the eye area and do a quick patch test before your first use.
