# Elastin Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/elastin 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. Elastin restores the skin by boosting hydration up to 77.2 percent, strengthening the moisture barrier, softening dark spots, and encouraging the natural production of [collagen](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/collagen) and elastin. This gentle ingredient suits both dry and oily skin types particularly well when applied in lightweight [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/serum). It fits seamlessly into a daily regimen because the formulas layer easily with other products.

Elastin helps improve skin barrier repair and moisture while reducing melanin deposition. It may also stimulate the secretion of procollagen and new elastin to help ameliorate skin photoaging. [Biomaterials Advances, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39053386/) [Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29465378/) ### How do you use elastin? Elastin is applied topically in cosmetic products to help improve skin hydration and support elasticity. Water-soluble elastin helps increase skin moisture levels and may help reduce tyrosinase activity for a brighter look. [Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29465378/) [Biomaterials Advances, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39053386/) ### Should you use elastin in the morning or at night? You may use elastin at any time of day to help improve skin moisture and support barrier repair. It helps increase skin hydration and may reduce melanin secretion. [Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29465378/) [Biomaterials Advances, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39053386/) ### Can you use elastin every day? Yes, you can use elastin every day to help boost skin moisture and support barrier repair. It may also help reduce melanin deposition and stimulate the production of [collagen](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/collagen) and elastin. [Biomaterials Advances, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39053386/) [Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29465378/) ### Does elastin cause purging or irritation? Elastin is unlikely to cause purging or irritation. ### Which skin types is elastin best for?
