# Mung bean Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/mung-bean The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Germany. Mung bean [extract](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/extract) actively defends skin cells against everyday oxidative stress and premature aging, helping to maintain a smooth, resilient, and youthful appearance. It suits dry skin and oily skin particularly well, and you will most commonly find this gentle ingredient formulated into lightweight [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/serum). Because of its fluid texture, it layers easily with the rest of your daily skincare routine.
