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 suitability for oily skin due to rice bran water and glycerin providing humectant action, but lacks sufficient ingredients for optimal oil control, making it mostly supportive for your acne, blemishes, and breakouts.
- The formula provides excellent nourishing mask benefits with rice bran water and sodium hyaluronate to hydrate and improve skin texture, which are generally beneficial but not directly targeted at your primary concerns.

## What reviewers say

Based on a very large amount of data, users with dry, sensitive, and dull skin frequently praise this mask for its ability to gently exfoliate without irritation, leaving the complexion noticeably softer and brighter.
