Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate suitability for your combination skin as jojoba seed oil and squalane provide emollient action without being overly heavy, though it may not fully address the needs of both oily and dry areas.
- The product provides excellent moisturizing benefits due to the presence of jojoba seed oil and sunflower seed oil, enhancing barrier resilience for your acne, blemishes, and breakouts.
- There are no risks of irritation for your combination skin due to the absence of prohibited or harsh ingredients.
How to apply
- Use your moisturizer twice a day in your AM and PM routines. Apply it daily to help keep breakouts under control.
- Apply after your cleanser and toner, and make sure to use your SPF right after in the morning.
- Gently spread a small amount of moisturizer over your face using soft motions. Let it absorb into the skin for a minute before getting dressed or applying makeup.
- Apply on slightly damp skin to help lock in extra moisture. This keeps your combination skin balanced without feeling heavy.
- Avoid the eye area and do a patch test before your first use. Stop using if you feel any irritation.

Questions and answers
How well does e.l.f. All the Feels Facial Oil work for acne-prone skin?
This oil works for acne-prone skin, though other products fit it better. It helps moisturize and calm the skin without causing irritation. Products that fit this skin better need ingredients like peptides and soothing extracts to balance oily and dry areas while supporting hydration and repair.
Forschende Komplementarmedizin, 2012Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2024
Which ingredients make this oil a good fit for acne-prone skin?
Jojoba seed oil helps keep acne-prone skin soft and calm while reducing breakouts. To fit this skin even better, a moisturizing treatment needs effective peptides and soothing extracts that balance hydration and radiance without causing irritation.
Forschende Komplementarmedizin, 2012Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2024
What does Hemp Seed Oil do for acne-prone skin?
Hemp Seed Oil helps calm red and irritated acne-prone skin while strengthening the skin barrier to keep it healthy and balanced. Studies show that formulas containing this oil can noticeably reduce skin redness and moisture loss with regular twice-daily use.
What does Jojoba Seed Oil do for acne-prone skin?
Jojoba seed oil helps calm acne-prone skin and reduces breakouts over time. It may also help lower inflammation and clear up lesions.
Forschende Komplementarmedizin, 2012Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2024
Where does it go in a skincare routine for acne-prone skin?
This treatment goes in the evening routine, after cleansing and before moisturizing, though it can also be used in the morning or twice a day. It is unlikely to irritate acne-prone skin, as it contains soothing ingredients like Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil and Jojoba Seed Oil. However, for acne-prone skin, a product of this type needs lightweight hydrators and pore-clearing ingredients to properly balance oil and prevent breakouts.
Can I use this oil with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this moisturizing treatment with retinol by applying the oil after your retinol product to help keep your skin soft and comfortable. Using a gentle moisturizer alongside retinol is unlikely to cause irritation and helps support your skin barrier while treating breakouts. To properly care for acne-prone skin, this type of product needs lightweight hydrators and skin-soothing ingredients like jojoba seed oil and squalane that calm the skin without clogging pores.
How often should I use it?
You can use this moisturizing treatment daily as part of your routine to help keep your skin soft and moisturized. Using a moisturizer consistently helps support the skin barrier, and a product of this type for acne-prone skin needs lightweight hydrators like jojoba seed oil and squalane to keep pores clear.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020Health Science Reports, 2021
Can it clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for acne-prone skin?
This oil is unlikely to irritate acne-prone skin because it lacks harsh ingredients, but it may not fully address every need of this skin type. To properly care for acne-prone skin, a moisturizing treatment needs balancing ingredients like jojoba seed oil and squalane to keep skin soft without feeling too heavy.
Forschende Komplementarmedizin, 2012Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2024
Can I use this oil around the eyes or on my body?
This oil is unlikely to irritate the thin skin around the eyes or on the body, as it contains no harsh ingredients. However, acne-prone skin needs a product of this type to include lightweight hydrators and pore-clearing ingredients to properly care for delicate or larger body areas.
Is it fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
