The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for the United Arab Emirates.

Copper helps the skin heal smoothly by reducing redness and soothing irritation after strong resurfacing treatments. This gentle ingredient suits most skin types and is most commonly found in lightweight [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/serum). When adding it to your regimen, apply it separately from [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/vitamin-c), [bio-placenta peptides](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/bio-placenta-peptides), and [hexapeptides](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/hexapeptide).

## Questions and answers

### What does copper do for the skin?

Copper helps decrease adverse skin reactions and downtime after fractional laser resurfacing.

[Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30945430/)

### How do you use copper?

Use [copper peptides](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/copper-peptide) at night on alternate nights with other active ingredients like [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/vitamin-c) or other peptides because combining them directly can make them less effective.

### Should you use copper in the morning or at night?

You should apply copper peptides at night, especially when keeping them separate from vitamin C which is best used in the morning.

### Can you use copper every day?

Yes, you can use copper every day, though certain partner ingredients like vitamin C and other peptides should be kept apart by applying them on alternate nights.

### Does copper cause purging or irritation?
