Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate moisturizing for your dry and flaky skin, as oat and squalane provide soothing and hydrating effects to enhance barrier resilience. Shea butter further supports dry skin by offering emollient and occlusive actions to reinforce the skin barrier.
- The formula is highly suitable for dry skin due to the presence of oat, squalane, and shea butter, which provide emollient and occlusive actions to support the skin barrier.
- The safety profile is excellent, with no risks of irritation for your dry and sensitive skin due to the absence of prohibited or harsh ingredients.
How to apply
- Could be used as part of your AM or PM routine. Start using this moisturizer 3 times a week and move to daily use if your dry skin tolerates it well.
- Apply this moisturizer after cleansing and toner in the morning, or after your serum in the evening. Always pair it with SPF in the morning.
- Gently press a small amount of the moisturizer into your skin. Avoid rubbing it harshly to protect your sensitive skin.
- Apply the moisturizer on slightly damp skin to help with hydration absorption. This also works well for dry and flaky skin types.
- Do a patch test before your first use. Avoid the eye area to prevent any irritation.

Questions and answers
Which ingredients make this cream a good fit for dry sensitive skin?
Oat, squalane, and shea butter make this cream a good fit by soothing dry patches, keeping moisture locked in, and supporting your skin barrier. To work even better for dry sensitive skin, a product of this type needs deep hydration agents like glycerin and hyaluronic acid along with extra nourishing moisturizers.
What does Oat do for dry sensitive skin?
Oat helps soothe dry sensitive skin by calming irritation, reducing redness, and easing itchiness. It also supports the skin barrier to keep moisture locked in, which makes dry skin feel softer and smoother.
What does Squalane do for dry sensitive skin?
Squalane helps keep dry sensitive skin soft and smooth by locking in moisture and calming irritation without causing flare-ups. It is unlikely to cause redness or discomfort, making it a gentle choice that supports the skin barrier. This type of skin needs ingredients that deeply hydrate and soothe, such as plant oils and antioxidants.
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017Molecules, 2009
Where does this cream go in a skincare routine for dry sensitive skin?
This treatment goes in the evening routine after cleansing and toning, followed by a moisturizer. It helps soothe dry skin and is unlikely to cause irritation.
Can I use it with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this lotion with retinol by applying the retinol first and following it with the moisturizer to help calm and protect your skin. Preconditioning your dry and sensitive skin with a barrier-enhancing moisturizer like this may also make it easier for your skin to adjust to retinol.
How often should I use this cream?
You can use this moisturizing treatment daily in your evening routine to help keep dry and sensitive skin calm and hydrated. A product of this type needs soothing and hydrating ingredients like oat and squalane, along with rich butter and ceramides to fully comfort very dry skin.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020Health Science Reports, 2021
Can it clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for dry sensitive skin?
This lotion is unlikely to cause breakouts or clog pores on dry sensitive skin, as it has a very safe formula with no harsh ingredients. However, because it uses rich ingredients like shea butter to deeply soften and protect, a product of this type needs to be used carefully if you are prone to clogged pores.
Can I use it around the eyes or on my body?
You can use this moisturizing treatment safely around your eyes and on your body because its gentle ingredients are unlikely to cause irritation. To properly care for dry sensitive skin on the body, a product of this type needs rich nourishing ingredients like ceramides and natural butters that lock in moisture and deeply soothe the skin barrier.
Is this cream fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. Cetearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
