# Ferulic acid

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/ferulic-acid

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

Topical ferulic acid shields the skin from sun damage, calms sunburn cells, fades dark spots, and smooths fine wrinkles when paired with lasers or microneedling. It suits dry skin and oily skin best, and it is usually sold as [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/serum). It fits into a routine easily because it works well with [glycolic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/glycolic-acid), [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/vitamin-c), and [AHA blend glycolic and citric acids](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/aha-blend-glycolic-and-citric-acids).
