The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Saudi Arabia.

Brand: [SKINFOOD](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/brands/skinfood)

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 poor match for oily acne-prone skin; the nourishing masks alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate moisturizing for your oily skin due to glycerin and carrot seed oil, which hydrate without exacerbating oiliness, but lacks targeted ingredients for your acne and breakouts.
- While beta-carotene provides antioxidant benefits, the formula does not sufficiently address oil control for oily skin.

## 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/))
- Topical beta-carotene provided protection for the human skin of healthy volunteers against IR radiation by acting as a superficial antioxidant, though dermal carotenoid degradation was significantly higher for standard infrared radiator than for water filter infrared irradiation. ([Experimental Dermatology, 2011](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21255091/))
- Pre-treatment with beta-carotene at 1.5 microM modulated UVA-induced gene regulation in HaCaT human keratinocytes through multiple mechanisms not restricted to singlet oxygen quenching, reducing the effect for 143 genes and enhancing it for 180 out of 568 UVA-regulated genes. ([The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2005](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15675964/))
- Alginate hydrogel dressings co-loaded with cinnamon-mediated silver nanoparticles, beta-carotene nanocarriers, and Centella asiatica extract demonstrated antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli over a 24-h period while mitigating silver-induced cytotoxicity and oxidative stress in human keratinocyte cells. ([Gels, 2025](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41002512/))
- 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/))

## What reviewers say

## How to apply

- Use your sheet mask PM routine about 1-3 times a week to help with breakouts. Start slowly to see how your oily skin feels before using it more often.
- Put on your sheet mask after cleansing and toning, but before applying your final moisturizer. This helps your skin absorb all the good ingredients easily.
- Unfold the sheet mask and smooth it gently over your face without rubbing. Leave it on for ten to fifteen minutes ⏱ and gently pat any leftover essence into your skin.
- Apply the sheet mask directly onto clean and dry skin for the best results against blemishes. There is no need to wash your face again after removing the mask.
- Avoid getting the product into your eyes and always do a quick patch test before your very first use.

## Questions and answers

### Why does Lovi advise caution with the SKINFOOD Carrot Carotene Daily Mask for oily acne-prone skin?

This mask is a poor match for your oily acne-prone skin because it lacks targeted ingredients for breakouts and does not provide enough oil control. A nourishing mask for this skin type needs ingredients like niacinamide and centella asiatica to manage blemishes and prevent excess oiliness.

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

This mask is a poor fit for your oily acne-prone skin because it lacks targeted ingredients for breakouts and oil control, even though it contains glycerin and carrot seed oil for hydration. To properly fit this skin type, a product needs ingredients like niacinamide, centella asiatica, or ceramide np to manage blemishes and provide a balanced complexion without excess oiliness.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

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

Carrot seed oil is generally too heavy for oily, acne-prone skin and may clog pores, leading to more breakouts. Products for this skin type need lightweight, balancing ingredients that clear pores and soothe redness without feeling greasy.

### What does Beta-Carotene do for oily acne-prone skin?

Beta-carotene acts as an antioxidant on the skin surface to help protect against free radicals caused by light. For oily, acne-prone skin, a product of this type needs to be lightweight and non-clogging to keep skin calm and clear.
Sources: [Experimental Dermatology, 2011](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21255091/)

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

This mask may not be the best fit because it lacks targeted ingredients for acne and breakouts, so oily and acne-prone skin needs a product that also provides oil control and blemish-fighting ingredients.
Sources: [International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31461548/)

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

You may use this mask with your routine, applying it after cleansing and before your moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated. However, because it lacks oil control and breakout-fighting ingredients, oily acne-prone skin needs a product that includes targeted ingredients like salicylic acid or niacinamide to help manage blemishes and excess shine.
Sources: [Cutis, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17121065/)

### How often should I use this mask?

This mask may be used as needed, though it is a poor match for oily acne-prone skin because it lacks oil control and breakout-fighting ingredients. Oily acne-prone skin needs targeted ingredients that manage excess oil and breakouts while providing light hydration.

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

This mask is a poor match for oily acne-prone skin because it lacks ingredients that control oil and target breakouts. To work for this skin, a product of this type needs acne-fighting ingredients like salicylic acid or oil-balancing agents.

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

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. Cetearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
