Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works

Lovi Assistant explains

  • This formulation offers moderate treatment for minimizing fine lines and wrinkles, as retinol and sodium hyaluronate work to smooth texture for your dry and sensitive skin.
  • The presence of glycerin and shea butter provides essential hydration and emollient action, which are beneficial for dry skin.
  • The safety profile is excellent, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of prohibited or harsh ingredients.

How to apply

  • Use this PM routine for your evening skincare. Start using the serum 3 times a week and increase to daily use if your skin feels comfortable.
  • Apply the serum after cleansing and toner, but right before your moisturizer. This step locks in deep hydration for dry skin.
  • Gently press 2-3 drops of the serum into your skin using your palms. Let it absorb completely for a minute ⏱ before applying your next product.
  • Since your skin is sensitive, apply the serum on completely dry skin for better tolerance and less irritation.
  • Avoid the sensitive eye area during application. Always do a patch test before your first use to ensure your skin reacts well.
