Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers excellent pore cleansing for your combination skin, as kaolin and bentonite effectively absorb excess oil and decongest the skin. Silica also provides mild exfoliation, complementing the seboregulating properties of volcanic ash.
- Camellia sinensis leaf extract and orchid extract offer soothing benefits, ensuring a comfortable experience for your non-sensitive skin.
- The formula is safe for your combination skin, containing no harsh ingredients and featuring camellia sinensis leaf extract to minimize irritation.
How to apply
- Use this cleansing mask during your PM routine once a week to control oil. Start slowly 3 times a week and increase if your skin feels comfortable.
- Apply the cleansing mask after the cleansing step and before using your hydrating toner. This ensures it works effectively on your skin.
- Spread an even layer over your face using gentle motions. Avoid any harsh rubbing to keep your skin calm.
- Apply the mask to clean and slightly damp skin for the best results. This helps the product target oily shine efficiently.
- Avoid the sensitive eye area during application. Do a simple patch test before your very first use.
