For very dry or flaky skin, you might want to layer it over a hydrating serum or add a few drops of a facial oil on top, especially at night, to provide an extra layer of occlusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this if I have oily, acne-prone skin?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    Yes, many users with oily skin enjoy this as a night cream or when their skin is dehydrated from acne treatments. Its non-greasy finish and calming ingredients can help balance the skin. However, if you are prone to fungal acne, be sure to patch test as it contains some ingredients that could be triggers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this cream contain any silicones?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    The older formulation contained silicones like Cyclopentasiloxane. The newer formulation listed in our INCI list (with Methyl Trimethicone) also contains a lightweight, volatile silicone.

One reviewer with very dry skin noted it did not feel as stripping as some other oil cleansers marketed toward oily skin, and a TikTok reviewer (@ririsglow_) described the texture as lightweight and suitable for everyday double-cleansing on oily, sensitive, and acne-prone skin. A minority of reviewers noted the texture is slightly thicker and finishes emulsifying faster than some competing oils — a neutral trait rather than a strong complaint.
