Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate hydration for your oily skin, as glycerin and hyaluronic acid provide humectant action that can be beneficial, though it lacks specific ingredients for seboregulation to manage oily shine.
- The inclusion of citrus aurantium amara flower extract and various essential oils like lavender and rosemary offer some soothing and antioxidant benefits, but their concentration may not be optimal for addressing primary concerns.
- The product is safe for your oily skin, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of prohibited or harsh ingredients.
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.
Questions and answers
Why is Sisley Hydra-Global Moisturizing Treatment a weak match for oily skin?
This treatment is a weak match because it offers only moderate hydration and lacks specific ingredients to manage oily shine. A product of this type needs peptides, lightweight hydrating agents, and ingredients that support the skin barrier without heavy oils or clogged pores.
Which ingredients make this treatment a poor fit for oily skin?
This treatment is a weak match for oily skin because it lacks ingredients to manage oily shine and contains heavy or essential oils that may not suit your skin type. Moisturizing treatments for oily skin need lightweight hydrating agents and peptides that provide hydration without adding excess oil or clogging pores.
What does Water do for oily skin?
Water helps keep oily skin hydrated without adding grease or clogging pores. Keeping oily skin properly hydrated may also help balance oil production and reduce unwanted shine.
What does Butylene Glycol do for oily skin?
Butylene glycol helps deliver active ingredients deeper into the skin and is unlikely to clog pores, making it useful for keeping oily skin balanced and smooth. It helps other ingredients penetrate effectively while maintaining a lightweight feel.

Where does this treatment go in a skincare routine for oily skin?
This treatment goes in the evening routine after cleansing and before moisturizing. Oily skin of this type needs a moisturizer that also includes oil-controlling ingredients to manage shine.
Can I use this treatment with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this treatment with retinol by applying the retinol first and following it with this moisturizer to help keep your skin soft while minimizing irritation. Oily skin also needs ingredients that balance oil production and manage shine.
How often should I use this treatment?
You can use this treatment in the evening as part of your routine. It is unlikely to irritate oily skin, but this type of skin needs ingredients that help control shine and excess oil.
Can this treatment clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for oily skin?
This treatment is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for oily skin, as it contains no harsh or prohibited ingredients that trigger irritation. However, because it lacks ingredients to control excess oil and shine, an oily skin type needs lightweight formulas with oil-balancing and pore-clearing ingredients like salicylic acid or niacinamide.
Can I use this treatment around the eyes or on my body?
This moisturizing treatment is safe to use around the eyes and on your body, though the skin on your eyelids is much thinner than the thick skin on your back.
Is this treatment fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (parfum).
What the research says
A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant.
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2001Niacinamide/glycerin body moisturizers provided better rapid and prolonged improvement of cosmetic xerosis through functional improvement of stratum corneum barrier function compared to no treatment and conventional moisturizers in female subjects.
Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2012
Why other moisturizers fit oily 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.
