Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate hydration for your combination skin, as glycerin and caulerpa lentillifera extract provide humectant benefits, but lacks specialized ingredients to address your acne, blemishes, and breakouts.
- The formula is highly suitable for combination skin due to its humectant properties, and the inclusion of chamomile water and glycerin ensures a soothing experience.
- The safety profile is excellent, with no harsh ingredients and a good balance of soothing components.
How to apply
- Use your hydrating toner in your AM and PM routine. Start 3x a week and work up to daily use if your skin likes it.
- Apply your hydrating toner after cleansing and before your moisturizer or SPF.
- Gently press 2-3 drops of the hydrating toner into your skin and let it absorb for a minute.
- Apply the hydrating toner on slightly damp skin to help it absorb better.
- Always do a patch test before your first use and avoid the eye area .
