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

Brand: [Some By Mi](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/brands/some-by-mi)
Category: [Face masks](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/best/face-masks)

This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with sensitive skin: redness, stinging, and reactions to new products. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app.

A weak match for sensitive skin; the cleansing masks alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- This product offers moderate pore cleansing for your normal skin, with bentonite and capryloyl salicylic acid effectively decongesting pores, though it lacks specialized ingredients like Centella Asiatica Extract in concentrations to significantly calm your redness and irritation.
- While willow bark extract provides mild exfoliation beneficial for normal skin, the overall formulation does not prioritize soothing agents to address your specific concerns.
