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

Brand: [Glamglow](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/brands/glamglow)
Category: [Toners](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/best/toners)

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.

A weak match for mature skin; the toners alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate exfoliation for wrinkles and fine lines due to the presence of mandelic acid, glycolic acid, and salicylic acid, which can cause irritation and dryness for your normal skin type.
- While the exfoliating acids provide texture refinement, the inclusion of peppermint oil and alcohol denat. may further contribute to dryness and discomfort for normal skin.

## What the research says

- Repeated short-contact 70% glycolic acid peels provided superior results in atrophic acne scars compared to daily low-strength glycolic acid cream or placebo in 58 women over 24 weeks. ([International Journal of Dermatology, 2000](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11095203/))
- Serial glycolic acid peels combined with a modified Kligman formula significantly reduced facial PIH severity in Indian patients compared to the modified Kligman formula alone. ([Dermatologic Surgery, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28114204/))
- Cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen achieved a higher cure rate (39%) than salicylic acid (24%) and a wait-and-see approach (16%) for cutaneous warts at 13 weeks in primary care patients. ([CMAJ, 2010](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20837684/))
- A moisturizer containing licochalcone A, 1,2-decanediol, L-carnitine, and salicylic acid significantly reduced noninflammatory, inflammatory, and total acne lesion counts compared to a vehicle control in Thai patients during a 12-week maintenance phase. ([BioMed Research International, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33150170/))
- Treatment with 2% supramolecular salicylic acid hydrogel resulted in a regression and markedly improvement rate of 51.01% compared to 43.10% for Adapaline gel in patients with mild to moderate facial acne vulgaris, showing no significant difference in efficacy. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38590107/))
- Treatment with 45% mandelic acid peel showed nearly equal overall efficacy as 30% salicylic acid peel in patients with mild-to-moderate facial acne vulgaris, but with fewer adverse effects. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31553119/))
- Chemical peels using 35% glycolic acid, 20% salicylic-10% mandelic acid, and phytic acid reduce acne scores by 70.55%, 74.14%, and 69.7% respectively, and significantly decline the postacne hyperpigmentation index in Asian patients with mild to moderate acne. ([Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31619887/))
- Commonly used chemical peels showed no significant differences in effectiveness for acne vulgaris in most comparisons, though combined salicylic and mandelic acid peeling was superior to glycolic acid and glycolic acid was superior to placebo, based on twelve randomized controlled trials. ([BMJ Open, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29705755/))
- Application of a cream containing lactic acid 12% and pramoxine HCl 1% significantly improved skin dryness, hydration, and itch compared with a nontreated control in 24 women with a history of dry itchy skin. ([Cutis, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15027519/))
- Topical 12% ammonium lactate produced a significant sparing of epidermal and dermal atrophy induced by clobetasol propionate in human volunteers, without influencing the corticosteroid's bioavailability or antiinflammatory properties. ([Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1992](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1597538/))
- A lactic acid/ceramide lotion significantly improved skin moisturization and desquamation compared to no treatment in women with dry, rough skin on the anterior shins. ([The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33178384/))
- Gluconolactone and tartaric acid significantly lower transepidermal water loss and erythema after sodium lauryl sulphate challenge compared to vehicle, untreated control, and glycolic acid in healthy subjects. ([The British Journal of Dermatology, 1997](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9470910/))

## Why other toners fit mature skin better

- Topical menthol induced significant pain, cold sensations, punctate and cold hyperalgesia, and increased cutaneous perfusion in 10 subjects compared to ethanol control, acting as a human model for cold pain by sensitizing peripheral cold C nociceptors and activating cold-specific A delta fibres. ([Brain, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14985268/))

## Questions and answers

### Why is Glamglow SUPERTONER a weak match for mature skin?

This toner is a weak match for mature skin because its strong mix of exfoliating acids, alcohol, and peppermint oil can easily lead to dryness and irritation. A product of this type needs a balanced blend of gentle exfoliating acids and soothing, hydrating ingredients to refine texture without causing discomfort.
Sources: [Brain, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14985268/), [European Journal of Pain, 2014](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23963768/)

### Which ingredients make this toner a poor fit for mature skin?

Alcohol denat., peppermint oil, and a blend of exfoliating acids like glycolic acid and salicylic acid make this toner a weak match because they may cause dryness and discomfort for your mature skin. An exfoliating toner of this type needs gentle exfoliating acids paired with soothing and hydrating ingredients to refine texture without causing irritation.
Sources: [Brain, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14985268/), [European Journal of Pain, 2014](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23963768/)

### What does Glycolic Acid do for mature skin?

Glycolic acid helps smooth mature skin by encouraging fresh skin renewal and supporting firmness. It may also help improve signs of photoaging and increase moisture levels over time.
Sources: [Dermatologic Surgery, 1998](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9793513/), [Acta Medica, 2016](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27131351/)

### What does Salicylic Acid do for mature skin?

Salicylic acid helps smooth and firm mature skin by boosting collagen and elasticity while reducing roughness and wrinkles. It is unlikely to cause irritation when used correctly, but this skin type also needs extra hydrating ingredients to stay soft and plump.
Sources: [Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 2025](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38926250/)

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

This toner is not a good fit for your mature skin because its strong exfoliating acids, alcohol, and peppermint oil can cause dryness and irritation. Mature skin needs gentle cleansers, hydrating toners, and nourishing moisturizers that lock in moisture and soothe the skin.

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

It is best to avoid using this exfoliating toner in the same routine as retinol, because the strong acids, alcohol, and peppermint oil may easily cause irritation and dryness for your mature skin. Mature skin needs gentle hydrating ingredients and soothing moisturizers rather than harsh exfoliating acids and drying alcohols.

### How often should I use this toner?

This toner is a weak match for mature skin because its acids, alcohol, and peppermint oil can cause dryness and irritation. To use a product of this type safely, start once a week and only increase frequency if your skin tolerates it well without discomfort. Mature skin needs gentle exfoliating acids paired with soothing, hydrating ingredients to smooth fine lines without causing dryness.

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

This toner is unlikely to clog pores since it contains salicylic acid to help keep skin clear, but the strong acids and alcohol may dry out and irritate mature skin. A product for mature skin needs gentle hydrating ingredients and soothing plant extracts to keep skin soft and smooth without causing discomfort.

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

It contains fragrance (limonene and linalool) and drying alcohol (alcohol denat).
