Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works

Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate benefits for your combination skin, as Artemisia Princeps Extract and Centella Asiatica Extract provide soothing and anti-inflammatory effects to calm redness and irritation.
  • The formula also contains Artemisia Vulgaris Extract, which helps manage oily shine by calming the skin.
  • The product is safe for your combination skin, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of harsh ingredients and the presence of soothing components.

How to apply

  • Could be used as part of your AM or PM routine. Start using your soothing toner 3 times a week and move to daily use if your skin tolerates it.
  • Apply your soothing toner after cleansing, and before your moisturizer or SPF.
  • Gently press 2-3 drops of the soothing toner into your skin. Let it absorb for a minute before moving to the next step.
  • Apply the soothing toner on clean and slightly damp skin to help with absorption. This helps keep your skin feeling fresh and balanced.
  • Avoid the sensitive eye area during application. Do a patch test before your first use.
