Category: [Moisturizers and moisturizing serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/best/moisturizers)

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 weak match for oily acne-prone skin; the moisturizers alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate suitability for your oily skin as squalane and Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil provide emollient action, but the concentration of oils may exacerbate oiliness and acne, which are your main concerns.
- While the product offers excellent moisturizing benefits with ceramides np and squalane to enhance barrier resilience, it lacks sufficient ingredients for optimal oil control.

## What the research says

- Squalane at 0.005-0.015% counteracts UVA-induced oxidative stress, inflammation, and collagen metabolism inhibition while stimulating fibroblast migration in human dermal fibroblasts. ([Molecules, 2025](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40363772/))
- Plant-derived squalane protected human dermal fibroblasts against UVA-induced damage by counteracting ROS formation, suppressing apoptosis-related proteins p53, caspase-3, caspase-9, and PARP, and restoring the pro-survival p-Akt/mTOR pathway. ([Antioxidants, 2025](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40722956/))
- Grapeseed oil-loaded dermocosmetic nanoemulgel applied on the cheeks of healthy volunteers significantly reduced skin melanin, erythema, sebum production, and pores while increasing moisture and elasticity compared to a placebo. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35713012/))
- Topical treatment with cranberry oil and grape oil improved wound healing in rats, with cranberry oil showing an 88.1% wound area reduction and grape oil showing 84.6% compared to 74.1% in controls and 78.4% in the mupirocin standard group on day 13. ([Phytotherapy Research, 2011](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21305631/))
- An ionic liquid-based grapeseed oil emulsion increased transdermal penetration by 4.63-fold and improved skin hydration, firmness, elasticity, and facial wrinkles after 28 days of continuous use compared to ordinary emulsion. ([Pharmaceuticals, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39458914/))
- Topical treatments containing rosehip extract may reduce the size and erythema of postsurgical scars through macrophage polarization and inflammatory cytokine inhibition, though current clinical evidence remains insufficient to recommend its routine use. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37605366/))
- Sunflower and rosehip oil nanoemulsions prepared with a mix of phospholipids and synthetic emulsifiers permeated intact skin to the dermis and showed a more prominent healing effect in a human organotypic skin explant culture wound model compared to nanoemulsions prepared only with phospholipids. ([Pharmaceutics, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36986857/))
- A nanoemulsion containing 1 mg/mL kojic dipalmitate and 5% rosehip oil demonstrated high incorporation efficiency, suitable physicochemical stability, antioxidant and depigmenting efficacy close to 1 mM ascorbic acid, and no cytotoxicity at concentrations from 0.06% to 1% in vitro. ([Pharmaceutics, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36839792/))
- Topical application of 5% vitamin C cream significantly improved global clinical scores, increased skin microrelief density, and induced elastic tissue repair in photoaged skin compared to excipient control in healthy female volunteers. ([Experimental Dermatology, 2003](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12823436/))
- Ascorbic acid 2-glucoside gel significantly reduced gingival melanin pigmentation after 4 weeks compared to placebo in 73 subjects with symmetric pigmentation. ([Journal of Periodontology, 2009](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19186973/))
- Topical application of VC-IP cream twice daily for 8 weeks reduces periorbital wrinkles in female subjects compared to a placebo cream. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34910367/))

## Why other moisturizers fit oily acne-prone skin better

- A panthenol-enriched mask improved skin hydration, regulated sebum, and reduced redness and TEWL across dry sensitive, oily sensitive, and oily acne skin subgroups with excellent tolerance and no adverse reactions. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38366684/))
- A peel-off facial mask containing myoinositol and trehalose-loaded liposomes improved adult female acne by decreasing lesion counts, sebum production, GAGS scores, and local androgen levels while increasing beclin-1 levels. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28342238/))
- Co-delivery of paeonol and madecassoside via nanoemulsions improved transdermal delivery, promoted barrier repair proteins, inhibited inflammatory cytokine secretion in cellular and 3D models, and reduced transepidermal water loss and acne in human facial skin compared to free components. ([Molecules, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37446936/))

## Questions and answers

### Why is Eve Lom Renewal Treatment Oil a weak match for oily acne-prone skin?

This treatment oil is a weak match because the concentration of oils may make your oily skin more greasy and worsen breakouts. Oily acne-prone skin needs lightweight, non-clogging hydration with oil-controlling ingredients and ceramides that do not add excess oil.
Sources: [The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16778793/)

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

This oil is a poor fit for oily acne-prone skin because the heavy concentration of oils and squalane may exacerbate oiliness and breakouts. Oily acne-prone skin needs lightweight, non-clogging hydrating treatments with ingredients like ceramides and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid that deliver moisture without adding excess oil or greasiness.
Sources: [The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16778793/)

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

Squalane may help keep oily skin soft and smooth, but oxidized squalene can trigger inflammation in acne-prone skin. Because of this, oily acne-prone skin needs lightweight, non-greasy ingredients that balance moisture without clogging pores.
Sources: [The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16778793/)

### What does Grape Seed Oil do for oily acne-prone skin?

Grape Seed Oil helps moisturize oily acne-prone skin without feeling heavy or greasy. It absorbs quickly and keeps skin soft while supporting a clear, calm look.

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

This oil is a weak match for your oily acne-prone skin because the heavy concentration of oils may make your oiliness and breakouts worse. Oily skin of this type needs lightweight hydrators and oil-control ingredients to keep pores clear and skin balanced.
Sources: [The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16778793/)

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

You can use this moisturizing treatment in the evening after applying retinol, as it helps strengthen your skin barrier while you use active ingredients. However, because this product is a weak match for oily skin, a product of this type needs lightweight hydrators and oil-controlling ingredients to keep breakouts calm and pores clear.
Sources: [Cutis, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17121065/)

### How often should I use this oil?

This oil is a weak match for your oily acne-prone skin because the heavy concentration of oils may make your oiliness and breakouts worse. Oily acne-prone skin needs lightweight, oil-free hydration and ingredients that clear pores and control oil.
Sources: [The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16778793/)

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

This oil may indeed clog pores and worsen breakouts for oily acne-prone skin because the heavy concentration of oils can add extra oiliness. Oily acne-prone skin needs lightweight, non-greasy hydrators and oil-controlling ingredients rather than rich facial oils.
Sources: [The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16778793/)

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

You can use this moisturizing treatment around the eyes or on the body, though oily acne-prone skin needs a lighter product that controls excess oil and balances shine without heavy oils.
Sources: [Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12375070/)

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

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