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 peptide [serum](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/serum) first and following it with the [coenzyme Q10](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/coenzyme-q10) to boost results. Coenzyme Q10 helps keep the peptide stable so it works better to smooth and firm your skin. You do not need to change anything since they work well together.
