Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works

Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate treatment for rosacea on your oily skin, as sulphur helps reduce redness and inflammation, while Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice provides soothing benefits.
  • While sulphur has antimicrobial and keratolytic actions beneficial for managing oiliness, it is not present in a concentration or form that would effectively target your acne, blemishes, and breakouts.
  • The product is safe for your oily skin due to the absence of harsh ingredients and the presence of soothing components.

How to apply

  • Could be used as part of your PM routine. Start 3 times a week and build up to daily use if your skin tolerates it well.
  • Apply your serum after cleansing and toning, but before putting on your moisturizer.
  • Gently press 2 to 3 drops of the serum into your skin and let it absorb for a minute.
  • Apply the serum on clean, dry skin to help manage your blemishes safely.
  • Do a patch test before your first use and avoid the delicate eye area.

Questions and answers

Which ingredients make this treatment a good fit for oily acne-prone skin?

Sulphur and aloe vera make this gel a moderate fit for your oily skin by helping reduce redness, inflammation, and oiliness while soothing the skin. However, since it is not formulated to fully target your breakouts, a treatment of this type needs powerful acne-fighting ingredients like benzoyl peroxide, niacinamide, or Vitamin C, alongside soothing extracts and oil-controlling components for the best results.

What does Sulfur do for oily acne-prone skin?

Sulfur helps calm breakouts and manage oily skin by treating various skin conditions with rare mild side effects. It works well as a therapeutic agent, though products for this skin type also need ingredients that balance oil and keep pores clear.

Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2004Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1988

What does Aloe Vera Leaf Juice do for oily acne-prone skin?

Aloe Vera Leaf Juice helps calm redness and reduces acne breakouts for oily skin. Studies show it effectively targets acne lesions and lowers redness when used regularly.

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

This treatment goes in the evening routine. To properly address oily acne-prone skin, a routine of this type needs strong ingredients that target breakouts and blemishes along with oil-balancing agents.

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

You can use this treatment alongside retinol, but applying them on alternate nights helps prevent skin irritation. When using them together, apply this treatment first and follow with your retinol product. To properly care for oily acne-prone skin, this type of product needs targeted blemish-fighting ingredients and oil-balancing agents that work more effectively on breakouts.

How often should I use this treatment?

This treatment works best applied in the evening as part of your routine. Oily acne-prone skin needs a product of this type containing stronger active ingredients specifically formulated to target breakouts and blemishes.

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

This treatment is unlikely to clog pores or cause purging on oily acne-prone skin, as it has a safe design without harsh ingredients. However, because it lacks a high enough strength of sulphur to properly target breakouts, this skin type needs a product with stronger acne-fighting ingredients like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.

Is this treatment fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.

What the research says

Why other serums fit oily acne-prone skin better

  • Adapalene 0.1%-benzoyl peroxide 2.5% fixed-dose combination gel provided significantly greater, synergistic efficacy and a faster onset of action compared with the vehicle, adapalene monotherapy, and benzoyl peroxide monotherapy in patients with acne vulgaris.

    The British Journal of Dermatology, 2009

  • Topical benzoyl peroxide 5% gel treatment improved acne severity, sebum, stratum corneum hydration, and transepidermal water loss, while significantly reducing microbial diversity and the prevalence of Cutibacterium in 33 patients with acne vulgaris.

    Dermatologic Therapy, 2022

  • A cream combining propolis, tea tree oil, and Aloe vera reduced erythema scars, acne severity index, and total lesion count better than erythromycin cream in sixty patients with mild to moderate acne vulgaris compared to placebo.
