Work well together

Apply the acid blend first, then the [lauric acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/lauric-acid) product, because your skin benefits most when the barrier is instantly nourished after exfoliating. The acid blend clears away dead skin cells while lauric acid helps rebuild your natural moisture barrier. If your skin feels sensitive, try using them on different nights or choosing a gentler formula.
