This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with combination skin: an oily T-zone, enlarged pores, and dry cheeks. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app.

A weak match for combination skin; the nourishing masks alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate hydration for your combination skin due to glycerin and sodium hyaluronate, but ingredients like dimethicone and shea butter may clog pores and worsen oily shine.
- While the mask provides general nourishing benefits, it lacks sufficient ingredients for optimal oil control, which is a primary concern for your oily shine.

## Questions and answers

### Why is the Fresh Black Tea Firming Overnight Mask a weak match for combination skin?

This mask is a weak match because, while it provides moderate hydration, heavy ingredients like dimethicone and shea butter may clog pores and worsen oily shine. Combination skin needs products that offer soothing benefits, no risk of irritation, and effective ingredients for managing oily shine without clogging pores.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Which ingredients make this mask a poor fit for combination skin?

Dimethicone and shea butter make this mask a weak match because they may clog pores and worsen oily shine on your combination skin. A nourishing mask for this skin type needs ingredients that effectively manage oily shine and balance hydration without causing congestion.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### What does Black Tea Extract do for combination skin?

Belle De Nuit Extract helps keep combination skin comfortable and balanced throughout the day. It supports moisture levels in drier areas while remaining lightweight on oilier spots.

### Where does this mask go in a skincare routine for combination skin?

This nourishing mask is a weak match for combination skin because ingredients like dimethicone and shea butter may clog pores and worsen oily shine. Combination skin needs products of this type that provide lightweight hydration and oil-controlling ingredients to manage shine.

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

You can use this mask in the evening along with retinol, applying the retinol first and letting it absorb before putting on the mask. Because this rich mask contains heavy ingredients like shea butter that may clog pores on combination skin, a product of this type needs lightweight hydrators and oil-controlling ingredients to keep your skin clear and balanced.

### How often should I use this mask?

This mask is a weak fit for combination skin because heavier ingredients like shea butter and dimethicone may clog pores and worsen oily shine. Combination skin needs lighter, oil-controlling ingredients and refreshing hydrators to keep the skin balanced without feeling heavy.
