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

Work well together

Use them together in the same routine by applying the acid blend first and the [sodium lactate](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/sodium-lactate) second, to keep your skin balanced and comfortable. The sodium lactate softens the sharpness of the acids so your skin feels less irritated and dry. If it still feels too strong, you can try a lower strength or wait a little longer between steps.
