This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with oily skin: shine, enlarged pores, blackheads, and blemishes. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app.

A weak match for oily skin; the moisturizers alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate moisturizing for your oily skin due to glycerin and hyaluronic acid, which provide hydration but do not directly address concerns about oily shine.
- Niacinamide offers some seboregulation, but the formula lacks stronger oil-controlling ingredients for optimal results on oily skin.
- The product is safe for your skin, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of harsh ingredients.

## Key ingredients

Glycerin, Tetrapeptide-1, Hyaluronic Acid

## 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, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/))
- The 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, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31532576/))
- Ten 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, 2001](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18498456/))
- Niacinamide/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](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22206073/))
- Topical application of 0.1% hyaluronic acid formulations of different molecular weights led to significant improvements in skin hydration and elasticity, with low-molecular-weight formulations also significantly reducing wrinkle depth in seventy-six female subjects compared to a vehicle control. ([Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2011](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22052267/))
- Topical application of hyaluronic acid in conjunction with free gingival graft significantly reduced donor site postoperative pain until day 7 compared to normal saline, with no significant differences in graft dimensions or patient satisfaction. ([Clinical Oral Investigations, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34623507/))
- Treatment with a hyaluronic acid-containing mouth rinse or topical gel led to significant lesion reduction, pain relief, and normalization of lesion color in adult patients with minor recurrent aphthous stomatitis, with the gel formulation showing an earlier healing onset at 3 days. ([BMC Oral Health, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31311529/))

## 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. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38366684/))
- Gluconolactone chemical peels lower skin pH and transepidermal water loss while demonstrating seboregulatory properties in 16 female subjects. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37335807/))
- Combining 10% gluconolactone chemical peeling with oxybrasion or microneedle mesotherapy increased skin hydration and decreased sebum, pH, and TEWL in twenty-one Caucasian women, with no significant differences between the two methods. ([Skin Research and Technology, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37357656/))

## Questions and answers

### Why is Peter Thomas Roth Peptide Skinjection Moisture Infusion Cream a weak match for oily skin?

This treatment is a weak match because it only provides moderate moisture without directly controlling oily shine or regulating oil production well. Oily skin needs a product that is safe and lightweight, providing hydration without clogging pores, while containing ingredients like niacinamide to manage oil and minimize the look of pores.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Which ingredients make this cream a poor fit for oily skin?

This cream is a weak match for oily skin because glycerin and hyaluronic acid provide basic hydration but do not control shine. Oily skin needs a product of this type that also includes stronger oil-controlling ingredients like Niacinamide to manage oil production and pores while keeping skin balanced.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### What does Glycerin do for oily skin?

Glycerin helps keep oily skin hydrated without feeling heavy and supports the skin barrier. Because this product is a weak fit for your skin, an ideal product of this type needs lightweight hydrators and ingredients that balance oil while protecting the skin.
Sources: [The British Journal of Dermatology, 2008](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18510666/), [International Journal of Toxicology, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31840548/)

### What does Tetrapeptide-1 do for oily skin?

Tetrapeptide-1 helps oily skin stay calm and smooth by supporting the skin surface and easing irritation. This type of ingredient works well for oily skin when it has soothing and lightweight hydrating properties to keep the face clear and balanced without feeling heavy.

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

This moisturizing treatment goes in the evening routine after cleansing and toning, followed by your moisturizer. While it provides gentle hydration with glycerin and hyaluronic acid, this product is a weak match for oily skin because it lacks stronger oil-controlling ingredients to help manage shine. Oily skin typically needs oil-balancing ingredients and lightweight hydrators that control excess sebum without feeling heavy.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

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

You can use this moisturizing treatment with retinol by applying the treatment first in the evening to help hydrate your skin and reduce potential irritation from your retinol. This type of product works well for oily skin when it includes strong oil-controlling ingredients and lightweight hydrators that balance moisture without adding excess shine.
Sources: [Cutis, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17121065/), [The Journal of Dermatology, 2014](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24930436/)

### How often should I use this cream?

This moisturizing treatment is used once a day in the evening as part of an oily skin routine. To properly care for oily skin, a product of this type needs stronger oil-controlling ingredients and sebum-regulating actives to manage shine.

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

This moisturizing treatment is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on oily skin, as it has a safe formula without harsh ingredients. However, because it is a weak match for your skin, oily skin types generally need lightweight, oil-free formulas with stronger oil-controlling ingredients like salicylic acid or clay to truly manage shine.

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

This cream is safe to use around the eyes, where the skin is thinnest, and on the body because it features a gentle formula with no harsh ingredients that may cause irritation.
Sources: [Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12375070/)

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

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
