This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with mature skin: fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of firmness. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app.

Works for mature skin; other moisturizers fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate moisturizing for your normal skin, as glycerin and panthenol provide hydration and support barrier resilience, though it lacks specialized anti-aging ingredients to directly address wrinkles and fine lines.
- The formula includes allantoin and bisabolol, which offer soothing benefits that complement the humectant action for overall skin comfort.
- The safety profile is excellent, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of harsh ingredients and the inclusion of soothing components.

## Questions and answers

### How well does Simple Replenishing Rich Moisturiser work for mature skin?

Simple Replenishing Rich Moisturiser works moderately well for mature skin by keeping it hydrated and calm, though it lacks specialized anti-aging ingredients to directly smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. A moisturizer for mature skin needs potent anti-aging ingredients, rich nourishing components, and powerful antioxidants to properly support skin health.

### Which ingredients make this cream a good fit for mature skin?

Glycerin and panthenol make this cream a good fit by helping to keep mature skin hydrated and supporting its protective barrier. A moisturizer for mature skin also needs potent ingredients to directly smooth wrinkles and fine lines, along with rich softeners and firming boosters.
Sources: [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27425824/), [American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12113650/)

### What does Glycerin do for mature skin?

Glycerin helps keep mature skin feeling soft and smooth by drawing moisture into the outer layer and locking it in. This daily hydration boost supports the skin barrier, keeping dry areas comfortable and protected against irritation.
Sources: [The British Journal of Dermatology, 2008](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18510666/), [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### What does Panthenol do for mature skin?

Panthenol helps mature skin by boosting hydration, smoothing dryness, and supporting the skin barrier to keep it soft and comfortable. It is unlikely to cause irritation and may help reduce the look of fine lines by improving overall moisture levels.
Sources: [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27425824/), [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29577586/)

### Where does this cream go in a skincare routine for mature skin?

This moisturizer goes after your hydrating toner in the morning and after your treatment in the evening. Mature skin also needs specialized anti-aging ingredients and firming peptides to directly address wrinkles and fine lines.
Sources: [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32239984/), [Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36607762/)

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

You can use this moisturizer with retinol by applying it before your retinol treatment or by letting your skin absorb the retinol first to help keep your face calm and smooth. Using a moisturizer with barrier-enhancing ingredients like glycerin and panthenol is likely to support your skin and make it easier to tolerate stronger treatments.
Sources: [Cutis, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17121065/), [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27425824/)

### How often should I use this cream?

You can use this moisturizer twice a day, in the morning and evening, as part of your regular routine. Consistent daily application helps keep dry and mature skin well hydrated and comfortable.
Sources: [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32141711/), [Health Science Reports, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34141902/)

### Can this cream clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for mature skin?

This cream is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on mature skin, as it has a very gentle safety profile with soothing ingredients and a low rate of complaints. However, because it offers only moderate moisture, mature skin usually needs richer formulas with specialized anti-aging ingredients to smooth fine lines and firm the skin.
Sources: [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27425824/), [American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12113650/)

### Can I use this cream around the eyes or on my body?

You can safely use this cream around the eyes and on the body because it has an excellent safety profile without harsh ingredients. For mature skin, a product of this type needs added specialized anti-aging ingredients like peptides, retinoids, or potent antioxidants to directly smooth wrinkles and fine lines.
Sources: [Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12375070/), [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27425824/)

### Is this cream fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. Stearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
