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

Brand: [Pixi](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/brands/pixi)
Category: [Toners](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/best/toners)

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 toners alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate hydration for your normal skin due to glycerin, which helps moisturize, but it does not directly address your primary concerns of redness and irritation.
- While the absence of harsh ingredients and the presence of glycerin ensure a gentle experience for your sensitive skin, the formula lacks targeted ingredients to effectively soothe inflammation or reduce redness.

## Key ingredients

## 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/))
- The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31532576/))
- Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant. ([International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2001](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18498456/))
- Niacinamide/glycerin body moisturizers provided better rapid and prolonged improvement of cosmetic xerosis through functional improvement of stratum corneum barrier function compared to no treatment and conventional moisturizers in female subjects. ([Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2012](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22206073/))
- Fermented bilberry extract improved wrinkle depth, skin smoothness, roughness, firmness, elasticity, antioxidant capacity, and complexion evenness compared to a placebo in 66 subjects over 84 days. ([Nutrients, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39064646/))
- Topical application of oil-in-water creams containing wild bilberry leaves extract and seeds oil produced significant beneficial effects on the skin of healthy human volunteers. ([Antioxidants, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33809607/))
- Bilberry fruit extract incorporated into chitosan-based hydrogels demonstrated antioxidant, anti-hyaluronidase, and anti-tyrosinase activities, supporting their potential use in topical anti-aging preparations. ([Antioxidants, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38247529/))
- Betula alba bark extract and Empetrum nigrum fruit juice upregulated barrier genes, strengthened the skin barrier, and showed significantly better skin restructuring, hydration, and TEWL compared to placebo and 3% niacinamide. ([International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36293365/))

## Why other toners fit sensitive skin better

- 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/))
- Topical dexpanthenol acts as a moisturizer, improves stratum corneum hydration, accelerates wound healing and epidermal regeneration, reduces erythema, and improves symptoms of skin irritation compared to vehicle or no pretreatment. ([American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12113650/))

## Questions and answers

### Why is Pixi Antioxidant Tonic a weak match for sensitive skin?

This toner is a weak match for sensitive skin because, although glycerin offers some moisture, the formula lacks targeted ingredients to soothe redness and irritation. A product of this type needs soothing ingredients that calm redness and irritation, along with barrier support to truly fit sensitive skin.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

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

This toner is a weak match for sensitive skin because its fragrance may cause irritation and it lacks soothing ingredients to calm redness. A hydrating toner for this skin needs calming plant extracts and barrier-supporting ingredients without added fragrance to soothe irritation and reduce redness safely.

### What does Glycerin do for sensitive skin?

Glycerin helps keep sensitive skin soft and deeply hydrated while supporting the skin barrier. It is unlikely to cause irritation and may protect against dryness and roughness.
Sources: [The British Journal of Dermatology, 2008](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18510666/), [Acta Dermato-venereologica, 1999](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10598752/)

### What does Bilberry Fruit Extract do for sensitive skin?

Bilberry Fruit Extract helps calm sensitive skin while improving smoothness, firmness, and overall elasticity. It is unlikely to cause irritation and provides helpful antioxidant protection.
Sources: [Nutrients, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39064646/), [Antioxidants, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33809607/)

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

This toner is a weak match for sensitive skin because it lacks soothing ingredients to calm redness and irritation, though it offers moderate hydration. Sensitive skin needs a gentle, soothing toner with calming ingredients like centella asiatica or aloe vera to reduce redness.

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

This toner provides basic moisture with glycerin, but it lacks the calming ingredients needed to soothe redness and irritation when paired with retinol. Sensitive skin needs a gentle, soothing toner packed with calming extracts and barrier-strengthening ingredients to comfortably handle retinol.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### How often should I use this toner?

This toner is a weak match for your sensitive skin because it lacks ingredients to soothe redness and irritation, so a toner of this type for sensitive skin needs calming plant extracts or soothing agents to help calm the skin. Pixi Antioxidant Tonic offers moderate hydration through glycerin, but it does not directly address your primary concerns.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

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

This toner is unlikely to cause breakouts or clogged pores for sensitive skin since skin irritation or breakouts are low concerns for this formula. However, this weak match for sensitive skin needs soothing plant extracts and anti-inflammatory ingredients to properly calm redness and irritation.

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

It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (parfum).
