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

Brand: [Burt's Bees](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/brands/burt-s-bees)
Category: [Cleansers](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/best/cleansers)

This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with dry sensitive skin: flakiness, tightness, redness, fine lines, and wrinkles. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app.

A weak match for dry sensitive skin; the cleansers alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate suitability for your dry and sensitive skin as Sunflower Seed Oil and Glycerin provide emollient and humectant actions, but it lacks sufficient occlusive ingredients for optimal hydration.
- Quillaja Saponaria Bark Extract and Coco-Glucoside offer excellent cleansing for decongesting pores, while Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract provides soothing benefits that are mostly supportive for your dry or flaky skin.

## What the research says

- A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women. ([Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/))
- Apigenin protects against UVA-induced cytotoxicity and senescence in normal human dermal fibroblasts, decreases MMP-1 expression, and when applied topically as a cream in human subjects, increases dermal density and elasticity while reducing fine wrinkle length, skin evenness, moisture content, and transepidermal water loss compared to control cream. ([International Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2016](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27279007/))
- Topical chamomile oil combined with a night splint significantly improved the symptomatic and functional status of patients with severe carpal tunnel syndrome compared to placebo, while electrodiagnostic parameters showed no significant changes. ([Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice, 2015](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26573447/))
- German chamomile solution applied twice a day healed peristomal skin lesions significantly faster than once-a-day 1% hydrocortisone ointment in colostomy patients, with a mean healing time of 8.89 days versus 14.53 days. ([Ostomy/wound Management, 2011](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21617262/))
- Topical chamomile reduces the incidence and delays the occurrence of phlebitis due to amiodarone infusion in coronary care patients compared to a placebo of lanoline. ([Journal of Integrative Medicine, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28844214/))
- 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/))
- Application of Echinacea purpurea cream and gel increased skin hydration up to 10.6 AU and 11.4 AU and decreased wrinkles by 9.47% and 14.92% without causing skin irritation in 10 healthy volunteers over 1 month. ([International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2010](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20384903/))
- A new skincare formulation from Echinacea purpurea completely blocked the 40-60% reduction in skin nerve endings caused by UVA and UVB exposure in ex vivo human skin samples. ([Cell Proliferation, 2012](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22151837/))
- Topical application of Echinacea pallida root extract and its constituent echinacoside showed good anti-inflammatory and wound healing properties compared to E. purpurea and control in rats. ([Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11801391/))
- Overnight virgin coconut oil application provides a skin protective effect against damage and increased TEWL from frequent alcohol-based hand sanitizer usage in 60 volunteers, resulting in a 25% increase in perceived moisture content compared to the control group. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34121304/))

## Why other cleansers fit dry sensitive skin better

- Phytosphingosine increased filaggrin metabolism and skin hydration in human skin by stimulating filaggrin biosynthesis and degradation leading to natural moisturizing factor formation. ([Archives of Dermatological Research, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28936777/))
- A cream containing panthenol, prebiotics, and probiotic lysate improved facial sensitive skin symptoms and skin barrier function in 110 participants over 28 days. ([Skin Research and Technology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38186043/))
- 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 cleanser AM and PM every day to keep your face fresh. Start slowly once a day if your dry skin feels sensitive at first.
- Apply your cleanser first thing in your routine before any toner or moisturizer. Follow the usual steps for your AM or PM daily routine.
- Gently massage the cleanser onto your face using soft circular motions. Avoid harsh rubbing to protect your dry skin.
- Apply the cleanser to slightly damp skin to help it clean gently without stripping moisture. This method is very safe for sensitive and dry skin types.
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and avoid the delicate eye area. Always do a patch test before using the product for the first time.

## Questions and answers

### Why is Burt's Bees Soap Bark & Chamomile Deep Cleansing Cream a weak match for dry sensitive skin?

This cleanser is a weak match for your dry and sensitive skin because, although it has softening and moisture-holding ingredients, it lacks enough sealing ingredients to lock in hydration. A cleanser for this skin type needs a rich blend of hydrating and barrier-repairing ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid to maintain moisture and protect the skin.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Which ingredients make this cleanser a poor fit for dry sensitive skin?

This cleanser is a weak match for dry sensitive skin because it lacks enough sealing ingredients to lock in moisture and protect delicate skin. A cleanser for this skin type needs a rich blend of hydrating and barrier-repairing ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid to maintain moisture and prevent dryness.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### What does Soap Bark do for dry sensitive skin?

Soap Bark is a gentle natural cleanser that helps wash away dirt without stripping away your skin's natural moisture. However, for dry sensitive skin, a cleanser of this type needs added soothing ingredients and heavy hydrators to prevent tightness and keep skin soft and calm.

### What does Chamomile do for dry sensitive skin?

Chamomile helps calm dry, sensitive skin by reducing irritation and locking in moisture to keep your face feeling soft and smooth. It may also help protect against daily environmental stress that causes premature aging.
Sources: [International Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2016](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27279007/)

### Where does this cleanser go in a skincare routine for dry sensitive skin?

This cleanser goes in your morning and evening routine as the cleansing step. Because your skin is dry and sensitive, this product provides only moderate suitability as it lacks enough rich sealing ingredients to lock in moisture, so a cleanser of this type needs added moisturizing oils and heavy barrier-protecting ingredients to keep dry skin soft and comfortable.
Sources: [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32239984/)

### Can I use this cleanser with salicylic acid, and in what order?

You may use this cleanser with salicylic acid, but because it is a weak match for your dry and sensitive skin, it can easily lead to tightness and irritation. Apply the salicylic acid treatment after cleansing, and always follow up with a rich moisturizer containing sealing ingredients and skin-softening oils to lock in hydration.

### How often should I use this cleanser?

You can use this cleanser morning and evening as part of your routine. Because it is a weak match for your dry and sensitive skin, this type of product needs extra moisturizing ingredients to lock in hydration and soothing ingredients to calm irritation.

### Can this cleanser clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for dry sensitive skin?

This cleanser is unlikely to clog pores as it uses soap bark and coconut-derived cleansers to clear out congestion. However, because it is a weak match for dry sensitive skin, a cleanser of this type needs extra sealing ingredients like petrolatum or ceramides to lock in moisture and prevent irritation.

### Can I use this cleanser around the eyes or on my body?

This cleanser is unlikely to suit the very thin skin around the eyes because it can easily dry out delicate areas. A product for this skin needs gentle, hydrating ingredients like glycerin and soothing plant extracts without harsh foaming agents or menthol.
Sources: [Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12375070/)

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

It contains fragrance (limonene and citral) and drying alcohol (alcohol).
