# AHA blend glycolic and citric acids and gluconolactone

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/aha-blend-glycolic-and-citric-acids-and-gluconolactone

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

Work well together

Use them together in the same routine, applying the acid blend first and the [gluconolactone](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/gluconolactone) second for gentle exfoliation. The gluconolactone acts as a moisture magnet that calms down any stinging from the acid blend, making your skin feel more comfortable. If you experience irritation, try a lower strength product or use them on alternate nights.
