Questions and answers
Why does Lovi advise against Nature Republic Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel Mist for combination skin?

Where does this toner go in a skincare routine for combination skin?
This toner is a poor match for combination skin because it contains alcohol, which may dry out cheeks and irritate sensitive areas. Combination skin needs a gentle, alcohol-free hydrating toner with soothing and balancing ingredients like glycerin and sodium hyaluronate to keep both dry and oily zones comfortable.
Can I use this toner with retinol, and in what order?
This toner is a poor match for your skin, so it is best to avoid using it alongside retinol. Combination skin needs gentle hydrating toners and moisturizers with ceramides and soothing ingredients to keep the skin barrier strong and calm without irritation.
How often should I use this toner?
This soothing toner is a poor match for combination skin, so it is best to avoid using it. A better fit for this skin type is a hydrating toner with gentle ingredients that balance dry and oily areas without causing irritation.
Can this toner clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for combination skin?
This toner may cause breakouts or irritation on combination skin because it contains alcohol high in the ingredient list, which can dry out dry areas and trigger excess oil in oily zones. A product of this type for combination skin needs soothing ingredients and gentle hydrators like glycerin and hyaluronic acid without drying alcohols to keep skin calm and smooth.
Is this toner fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
It contains fragrance (parfum, limonene, and linalool) and drying alcohol (alcohol).
