Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate cleansing and hydration for your oily skin, as decyl glucoside and cocamidopropyl betaine help remove impurities while glycerin and sodium hyaluronate provide humectant action.
- While beneficial for general skin hydration, the formula lacks specialized ingredients to effectively manage oily shine.
- The product is safe for your oily skin, with no harsh ingredients and the inclusion of soothing agents like glycerin and sodium hyaluronate.
How to apply
- Could be used as part of AM and PM routines. Start using your cleansing toner 3 times a week and increase to daily use if your skin tolerates it well.
- Apply your cleansing toner after cleansing and before applying your moisturizer or SPF. This fits right into the middle of your daily skincare steps.
- Gently press 2 to 3 drops of the cleansing toner directly onto your skin. Avoid rubbing it in and let it absorb for a minute.
- Apply the cleansing toner to completely dry skin for the best control of oily shine. Clean skin helps the product work more effectively.
- Avoid the sensitive eye area during application. Do a simple patch test before your very first use to check for comfort.

Questions and answers
How well does Eucerin DermatoCLEAN Hyaluron Toner work for oily skin?
This toner offers moderate cleansing and hydration for your oily skin, though other products fit it better because it lacks specialized ingredients to manage oily shine. A product of this type needs ingredients like niacinamide, galactomyces, or exfoliating acids like AHA and BHA to properly control oil and clear pores.
Which ingredients make this toner a good fit for oily skin?
Glycerin and sodium hyaluronate make this toner a good fit by adding moisture to oily skin while gentle cleansers lift away impurities. To manage shine and pores better, an oily skin type needs a product with exfoliating acids like AHA and BHA or balancing ingredients like niacinamide.
What does Hyaluronic Acid do for oily skin?
Hyaluronic acid helps oily skin by reducing extra oil and sebum production without causing irritation. Clinical studies show it successfully balances oil levels while keeping the skin comfortable.
What does Glycerin do for oily skin?
Glycerin helps keep oily skin hydrated without feeling heavy and supports the skin barrier. Because this product is a weak fit for your skin, an ideal product of this type needs lightweight hydrators and ingredients that balance oil while protecting the skin.
The British Journal of Dermatology, 2008International Journal of Toxicology, 2019
Where does it go in a skincare routine for oily skin?
This toner goes in the evening routine after your makeup remover and cleanser, or you can use a hydrating toner in the morning before your moisturizer and SPF. It is safe for oily skin, but because it lacks specialized ingredients to manage oily shine, this skin type needs extra balancing and oil-controlling ingredients like niacinamide or clay.
Can I use this toner with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this toner with retinol by applying it after cleansing and before your retinol treatment. It helps keep your skin comfortable and hydrated, but oily skin also needs specialized ingredients to effectively manage shine.
How often should I use it?
You can use this cleansing toner in your evening routine and weekly care as outlined in the routine steps. Oily skin of this type needs specialized ingredients to effectively manage oily shine.
Can it clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for oily skin?
This toner is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on oily skin, as it contains gentle cleansers and soothing hydrators without heavy oils. However, because it lacks specialized ingredients to manage oily shine, an oily skin type needs oil-absorbing minerals or clay and pore-clearing acids to truly control excess oil.
Is this toner fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
What the research says
Topical application of 0.1% hyaluronic acid formulations of different molecular weights led to significant improvements in skin hydration and elasticity, with low-molecular-weight formulations also significantly reducing wrinkle depth in seventy-six female subjects compared to a vehicle control.
Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2011Topical application of hyaluronic acid in conjunction with free gingival graft significantly reduced donor site postoperative pain until day 7 compared to normal saline, with no significant differences in graft dimensions or patient satisfaction.
Clinical Oral Investigations, 2022Treatment with a hyaluronic acid-containing mouth rinse or topical gel led to significant lesion reduction, pain relief, and normalization of lesion color in adult patients with minor recurrent aphthous stomatitis, with the gel formulation showing an earlier healing onset at 3 days.
BMC Oral Health, 2019A 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, 2017The 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, 2020Ten 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, 2001The cytotoxic effect of sodium lauryl sulphate on normal human keratinocytes was significantly decreased when combined with cocamidopropyl betaine, Tween 20, and Tween 80 at concentrations well below the critical micelle concentration.
Skin Pharmacology and Applied Skin Physiology, 2003Topical oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions containing glyceryl glucoside, natural moisturizing factors, and ceramide significantly improved skin hydration and barrier function while reducing visible dryness and tactile roughness in subjects with very dry skin compared to untreated sites and vehicles.
The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, 2012Topical application of glyceryl glucoside significantly increased AQP3 mRNA levels and reduced transepidermal water loss compared with vehicle-controlled areas in volunteer subjects.
