Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works

Lovi Assistant explains

  • This product offers moderate benefits for normal skin, as peptides like Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 and Glycerin support collagen and hydration, but it lacks targeted ingredients to address your redness and irritation concerns.
  • While the formula provides general skincare advantages, the absence of anti-inflammatory agents means it will not directly help with your specific skin issues.
  • The product is safe for your sensitive skin, containing no harsh or prohibited ingredients that could cause irritation.

How to apply

  • Use your serum in the PM routine, starting 3 times a week before building up to daily use if your skin is happy.
  • Apply the serum after cleansing and toning, but before putting on your moisturizer for the best results.
  • Gently press 2-3 drops of the serum into your skin and wait a minute ⏱ for it to soak in.
  • Since your skin is sensitive and easily irritated, apply the serum on completely dry skin to help keep it calm.
  • Always do a patch test before your first use and avoid getting the serum too close to your eyes .

Where does this serum go in a skincare routine for sensitive skin?

Put this treatment in the evening routine after your toner and before your moisturizer. Treatments with active ingredients go in the evening for simplicity and extra safety around sun exposure. Because this is an average fit for your sensitive skin, a product of this type needs soothing agents and calming plant extracts to help with redness and irritation.

Can I use this serum with retinol, and in what order?

You can use this treatment in your evening routine after cleansing and a soothing toner, and before your moisturizer. It is safe for sensitive skin, but because it lacks ingredients to calm redness, sensitive skin of this type needs added soothing plant extracts and anti-inflammatory agents to properly target irritation.

How often should I use this serum?

This treatment is applied in the evening, following a soothing toner and before your moisturizer. A product for sensitive skin needs calming ingredients and anti-inflammatory agents to soothe redness and irritation.

Can this serum clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for sensitive skin?

This treatment is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on sensitive skin, as it contains no heavy oils or pore-clogging ingredients. However, because it lacks targeted calming ingredients for redness, sensitive skin types dealing with irritation or breakouts need formulas with soothing agents like centella asiatica or niacinamide.

Is this serum fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
