Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate exfoliation for your dry or flaky skin due to the presence of papain and salicylic acid, which provide some skincare benefits but may pose risks of worsening your condition.
  • The inclusion of glycerin offers humectant action, but the salicylic acid may still be drying for your dry skin.

How to apply

  • Use this enzyme powder exfoliant once a week during your evening routine after cleansing. Always follow with a good sunscreen the next day.
  • Apply the enzyme powder exfoliant after cleansing and before your toner, serum, and moisturizer. It fits right into your weekly routine step.
  • Mix a small amount of the enzyme powder exfoliant with water in your hands to create a foam, then gently massage it onto your face without harsh rubbing .
  • Apply the enzyme powder exfoliant on slightly damp skin for better comfort and gentle results. Since your skin is dry and sensitive, this helps protect your natural barrier.
  • Avoid the delicate eye area and do a patch test before first use. Do not combine this enzyme powder exfoliant with strong acids or retinoids in the same routine.
