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

Sacha inchi oil keeps the skin clear of harmful bacteria while gently boosting moisture and smoothing out dryness. It suits most skin types best and is most commonly found in nourishing [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/serum). Because it layers easily, the oil fits smoothly into any daily skincare routine.
