## Why this fit

- Offers moderate moisturizing for your oily skin due to aloe barbadensis leaf juice and glycerin, which hydrate and soothe without exacerbating oiliness.

## 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/))
- 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. ([Clinical Pharmacology, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30588129/))
- Topical aloe vera gel significantly accelerated split-thickness skin graft donor-site healing compared to placebo in 12 patients, but showed no significant difference in pain relief. ([Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29649056/))
- Topical application of Aloe vera cream reduced postoperative pain at rest and during defecation, accelerated wound healing at two weeks, and decreased analgesic requirements in patients after open hemorrhoidectomy compared to placebo. ([Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, 2010](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20569031/))
- 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.

## Questions and answers

### Why does Lovi advise caution with Aloderma Pure Aloe Vera Gel for oily skin?

This gel offers moderate hydration and soothing for oily skin, but it lacks specialized ingredients to effectively manage excess oil. A moisturizer for this skin needs peptides, lightweight hydrating agents, and ingredients that support the skin barrier without heavy oils.

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

This moisturizer is a poor fit because its formula lacks specialized ingredients to effectively manage excess oil, which is your main concern. A product for oily skin needs a combination of peptides and hydrating agents that maintain a lightweight texture, avoid heavy oils, and include ingredients that support the skin barrier without causing breakouts.

### What does Aloe Vera Leaf Juice do for oily skin?

Aloe vera leaf juice helps hydrate oily skin by increasing water content in the outer skin layer without adding heavy oils or modifying water loss. It is also often combined with treatments to help calm redness and reduce acne breakouts.
Sources: [Clinical Pharmacology, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30588129/), [Skin Research and Technology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17026654/)

### 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.

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

This moisturizer goes as the final step in your morning routine and evening routine. While aloe barbadensis leaf juice and glycerin help hydrate and soothe oily skin without making it greasy, this product lacks specialized ingredients to manage excess oil, which requires a formula containing targeted blemish-fighting ingredients.
Sources: [International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31461548/)

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

You can use this moisturizer with retinol by applying the retinol first, letting it absorb, and then following with the moisturizer. This product helps keep skin soft and calm, but an oily skin routine also needs specialized ingredients to manage excess oil.

### How often should I use this moisturizer?

This moisturizer is a poor match for oily skin because it lacks specialized ingredients to manage excess oil, which is your main concern. Oily skin needs targeted ingredients that help control shine and balance oil production.

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

This moisturizer is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on oily skin, but it may not keep excess oil under control. Oily skin generally needs lightweight products with oil-absorbing ingredients and pore-clearing acids to help manage shine and keep skin clear.

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

You can use this moisturizer around the eyes and on your body, as the thin skin of the eyelids and the skin across different body regions tolerate it well. It provides general hydration, though oily skin needs an option with specialized ingredients to manage excess oil.
