Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works

Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate benefits for your combination skin, as glycerin and sodium hyaluronate provide essential hydration to combat oily shine, while squalane offers emollient action. Camellia sinensis leaf extract and panax ginseng root extract contribute to overall skin health and soothing.
  • The formula is safe for your combination skin, lacking harsh ingredients and including beneficial extracts that minimize irritation risk.
  • While it provides good hydration and is safe for your skin type, it lacks targeted ingredients to significantly address oily shine.

What does Green Tea Extract do for combination skin?

Green tea extract helps calm combination skin and protects it from daily sun stress. It is unlikely to irritate, and it helps balance oily areas while keeping the rest of your face smooth.

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2001Carcinogenesis, 2001

What does Panax Ginseng Extract do for combination skin?

Panax ginseng extract helps smooth rough areas and keeps dry and oily patches balanced by supporting skin firmness and moisture. It may also help calm the skin and reduce irritation, making it a great addition for maintaining an even, healthy look.

Journal of Ginseng Research, 2017Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2007

Where does this cream go in a skincare routine for combination skin?

This cream goes in the moisturizer step, which is used morning and night for combination skin. It provides essential hydration and soothing benefits, though a product for this skin also needs targeted ingredients to help control oily shine.

How often should I use this cream?

This eye cream works well for combination skin when used as part of your daily routine. It helps keep the eye area soft and calm, though combination skin needs lightweight formulas that also help control midday oily shine.

The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2022Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017

Can this cream clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for combination skin?

This cream is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for combination skin, as its safe formula lacks harsh ingredients and includes beneficial extracts that minimize irritation risk. However, because it lacks targeted ingredients to control oily shine, an eye product for this skin needs oil-balancing and clarifying ingredients like niacinamide or salicylic acid.

Is this cream fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. Cetearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
