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

Brand: Prosacea
Category: [Serums and treatments](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/best/serums)

This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with combination skin: an oily T-zone, enlarged pores, and dry cheeks. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app.

Works for combination skin; other serums fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate treatment for rosacea due to the presence of sulphur, which helps in reducing redness and inflammation, and Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice provides general soothing benefits for your oily shine and combination skin.
- While the sulphur and aloe are beneficial for your combination skin, the formula lacks targeted ingredients to effectively manage oil production.
- The product is safe for your combination skin as it contains no prohibited or harsh ingredients that would cause irritation.

## What the research says

- Topical sulfur alone or in combination demonstrates efficacy and rare mild adverse events in treating various dermatological disorders. ([Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15303787/))
- Azelaic acid was probably less effective than benzoyl peroxide in acne treatment response, while showing little or no difference compared to tretinoin, and adverse events were mild and transient across evaluated topical treatments. ([Journal of Evidence-based Medicine, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33034949/))
- Topical application of precipitated sulphur 2-8% petrolatum achieved a 95% clinical and ectoparasitological cure rate in 40 ambulatory scabies patients without relevant adverse effects. ([Revista de Investigacion Clinica; Organo Del Hospital de Enfermedades de la Nutricion, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15776866/))
- Topical 10% benzoyl peroxide and 2%-5% sulfur cream achieved "good" to "excellent" results with no undesirable side effects in 113 consecutive patients with acne. ([Canadian Medical Association Journal, 1966](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4223133/))
- A cream combining propolis, tea tree oil, and Aloe vera reduced erythema scars, acne severity index, and total lesion count better than erythromycin cream in sixty patients with mild to moderate acne vulgaris compared to placebo. ([Clinical Pharmacology, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30588129/))
- Topical aloe vera gel significantly accelerated split-thickness skin graft donor-site healing compared to placebo in 12 patients, but showed no significant difference in pain relief. ([Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29649056/))
- Topical application of Aloe vera cream reduced postoperative pain at rest and during defecation, accelerated wound healing at two weeks, and decreased analgesic requirements in patients after open hemorrhoidectomy compared to placebo. ([Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, 2010](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20569031/))
- Treatment with a combination of propylene glycol, ethanol, water, and shampoo was found effective, easy to use, and cosmetically attractive with no observed side effects in patients with dandruff. ([Cutis, 1988](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2970946/))
- A moisturizer containing glycerol and propylene glycol reduced transepidermal water loss, decreased epidermal thickness, increased stratum corneum thickness, and reduced dermal inflammatory infiltrate compared to untreated disrupted skin in six healthy beagle dogs. ([Veterinary Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32628309/))

## Why other serums fit combination skin better

- Niacinamide and ferulic acid incorporated in a stable multiple emulsion successfully reduced melanin, sebum, and skin erythema while improving skin elasticity and hydration in human skin compared to a placebo. ([BioMed Research International, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35342760/))
- A panthenol-enriched mask improved skin hydration, regulated sebum, and reduced redness and TEWL across dry sensitive, oily sensitive, and oily acne skin subgroups with excellent tolerance and no adverse reactions. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38366684/))

## How to apply

- Use your serum as part of your PM routine. Start using it 3 times a week and move to daily use if your skin likes it.

## Questions and answers

### Which ingredients make this treatment a good fit for combination skin?

Sulphur and aloe barbadensis leaf juice make this a moderate fit for your combination skin by calming redness and soothing oily shine safely, though other products of this type need ingredients like niacinamide, zinc PCA, or propolis to properly balance oil.
Sources: [Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15303787/)

### What does Sulfur do for combination skin?

Sulfur helps clear up breakouts and calms oily areas without irritating dry patches on combination skin. It works gently to keep skin looking clear and balanced.
Sources: [Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15303787/), [Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1988](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2450900/)

### What does Aloe Vera Leaf Juice do for combination skin?

Aloe vera leaf juice helps keep combination skin hydrated by increasing water content without making it oily. It also helps calm redness and supports skin recovery.
Sources: [Skin Research and Technology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17026654/), [Clinical Pharmacology, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30588129/)

### Where does this treatment go in a skincare routine for combination skin?

This treatment goes in your evening routine, applied after cleansing and before moisturizing. Combination skin of this type needs a formula that also includes ingredients to balance oil production alongside soothing and calming agents.

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

Using this treatment with retinol may easily overwhelm combination skin, so it is safer to use them on different nights or keep retinol for a separate routine step altogether. Combining multiple active treatments often leads to dryness and irritation, even when individual products have a good safety profile.

### How often should I use this treatment?

You can use this treatment in the evening as part of your routine. It is unlikely to irritate your skin, but a product for combination skin also needs targeted ingredients to manage oil production.
Sources: [Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15303787/)

### Can this treatment clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for combination skin?

This treatment is unlikely to clog pores, cause breakouts, or lead to purging on combination skin. It has a safe formula with no harsh or prohibited ingredients that typically cause irritation or breakouts.
Sources: [Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15303787/)

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

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
