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

Keep them apart

Use them at different times of day with [glycolic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/glycolic-acid) in the morning and [acetyl hexapeptide-3](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/acetyl-hexapeptide-3) at night because acid ruins peptide strength. Glycolic acid is too acidic and breaks down the peptide, making it stop working. You can use a gentler acid or wait longer between applying them.

## Questions and answers

### Can you use glycolic acid and acetyl hexapeptide-3 together?

Keep [glycolic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/glycolic-acid) and [acetyl hexapeptide-3](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/acetyl-hexapeptide-3) apart because the low pH of glycolic acid destabilizes the peptide and reduces its bioactivity. Use them in separate steps or routines, such as AM and PM separation.

### Which goes first, glycolic acid or acetyl hexapeptide-3?

Keep glycolic acid and acetyl hexapeptide-3 apart by using them in separate routines, such as AM and PM, because the low pH of glycolic acid may destabilize the peptide.

### Are glycolic acid and acetyl hexapeptide-3 good for sensitive skin?

No, you should keep glycolic acid and acetyl hexapeptide-3 apart because the acidic environment destabilizes peptide bonds and reduces bioactivity. Sensitive skin should avoid low-pH overlap by using these ingredients in separate routines.
