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.

Works for combination skin; other nourishing masks fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate suitability for your combination skin, as glycerin and grape seed oil provide hydration and nourishment without exacerbating oiliness.
- While it offers general hydration benefits, the formula does not specifically target oily shine on your combination skin.
- The product is safe for your combination skin, featuring soothing ingredients like Centella Asiatica Extract and Grape Seed Oil with no harsh components.

## What reviewers say

This mask is widely praised as a "rescue" treatment for dry, dehydrated, and sensitive skin, effectively soothing redness and restoring moisture without causing irritation.

## How to apply

- Could be used as part of your AM or PM routine. Start using your creamy mask 3x a week and work up to daily use if your skin tolerates it.
- Apply your creamy mask after cleansing and toning, but before your moisturizer to lock in benefits. This step fits nicely right in the middle of your daily routine.
- Smooth an even layer of the creamy mask gently over your face, avoiding any unnecessary heavy rubbing. Let it sit for a few minutes ⏱ so your skin can drink it in.
- Apply the creamy mask on clean and dry skin to help manage oily shine effectively. This ensures the product works best for your combination skin type.
- Avoid the sensitive eye area during application. Do a simple patch test before your very first use to make sure your skin is happy.

This mask works reasonably well for combination skin, as glycerin and grape seed oil hydrate dry areas without making the skin oily, while centella asiatica extract helps calm the skin.
