Lovi Assistant explains
- Excellent suitability for your normal skin is provided by glycerin and sodium hyaluronate, which offer superior humectant action to hydrate and plump your skin, while Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 supports collagen production to address wrinkles and fine lines.
- The inclusion of fruit extracts like watermelon and apple further enhances the formula's ability to provide antioxidant protection and improve skin texture.
- The product is safe for your skin, as it contains soothing ingredients and lacks harsh or prohibited components.
How to apply
- Use your moisturizer twice a day in your AM and PM routines. Apply it daily to help smooth fine lines.
- Apply this product after your toner and serum, but before your SPF in the morning. Follow your cleanser and toner steps to keep your skin balanced.
- Gently press a small amount into your face and neck. Avoid rubbing the skin too harshly to prevent extra tension.
- Apply the moisturizer on slightly damp skin to help lock in extra moisture. Clean skin helps the product absorb much more evenly.
- Avoid the sensitive eye area during application. Do a quick patch test before your very first use to stay safe.
