Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate suitability for normal skin as galactomyces ferment filtrate and niacinamide provide antioxidant activity and melanogenesis regulation, but these ingredients do not directly target your primary concerns of wrinkles and fine lines.
- Allantoin and dipotassium glycyrrhizate offer general hydration and soothing benefits, supporting overall skin health.
- The product is safe for your normal skin due to the absence of prohibited or harsh ingredients, posing no risk of irritation.
How to apply
- Use this serum in your PM routine. Start by applying it 3 times a week, and work up to daily use if your skin likes it.
- Apply this serum after your toner and before your moisturizer.
- Gently press 2-3 drops of the serum into your skin and let it absorb for a minute.
- You can apply the serum on dry skin for the best results against fine lines.
- Always do a patch test before your first use and avoid the sensitive eye area.
People Say
★4.6Overall rating based on 1.5k+ reviewsBased on a very large amount of data, this lightweight, watery essence is widely praised by users with oily and combination skin for its ability to regulate sebum and refine skin texture without heaviness.

Questions and answers
How well does Purito Galacto Niacin 97 Power Essence work for mature skin?
This essence is a moderate match for mature skin because its ingredients offer general hydration, soothing care, and antioxidants, though they do not directly target wrinkles and fine lines. To truly care for mature skin, a treatment of this type needs ingredients that effectively smooth lines, support firmness, and provide deeper anti-aging benefits.
The British Journal of Dermatology, 2002Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2026
Which ingredients make this treatment a good fit for mature skin?
Galactomyces ferment filtrate and niacinamide make this treatment a fit by providing antioxidant activity and helping even out skin tone. Allantoin and dipotassium glycyrrhizate also help by offering general hydration and soothing benefits. To be a better fit for mature skin, a product of this type needs ingredients that directly target wrinkles and fine lines.
The British Journal of Dermatology, 2002Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2026
What does Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate do for mature skin?
Galactomyces ferment filtrate helps smooth and brighten mature skin by reducing wrinkles, dark spots, and roughness while keeping skin well hydrated. Daily use supports long-term skin rejuvenation and helps calm daily redness and pore size changes.
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2023Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
What does Niacinamide do for mature skin?
Niacinamide helps mature skin by smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles, reducing dark spots, and improving overall skin elasticity. It is also very well tolerated and supports a strong skin barrier to keep skin looking healthy.
Where does this treatment go in a skincare routine for mature skin?
This treatment goes in the evening routine, after cleansing and before moisturizing. While it offers soothing hydration and antioxidants, mature skin requires products with ingredients that directly target wrinkles and fine lines.
Can I use this treatment with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this treatment alongside retinol by applying the essence first and letting it absorb before putting on your retinol. This product helps calm and hydrate your skin safely, but mature skin needs active ingredients like peptides and retinoids that directly target wrinkles and fine lines for the best results.
How often should I use this treatment?
This treatment works well in the evening routine, and some treatments can also be used in the morning or twice a day. It is safe for your skin and poses no risk of irritation, but to truly address wrinkles and fine lines, mature skin needs targeted ingredients like retinoids or peptides along with antioxidants and firming agents.
Can this treatment clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for mature skin?
This treatment is unlikely to cause breakouts for mature skin because it lacks harsh ingredients, though a few reviewers have reported occasional blemishes. To better target wrinkles and fine lines, a product of this type needs dedicated anti-aging ingredients like peptides or retinol.
Is this treatment fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
