Lovi Assistant explains

  • Highly suitable for your dry and sensitive skin, this cream effectively treats acne with Melaleuca Alternifolia Tree Oil Leaf and Centella Asiatica Extract to reduce blemishes and soothe irritation. Glycerin and sodium hyaluronate provide excellent humectant action, while panthenol and allantoin support barrier repair for your dry or flaky skin.
  • The formulation is safe for your dry and sensitive skin, as it contains no harsh or prohibited ingredients that could cause irritation.
  • This product offers a high degree of compatibility with your skin concerns.

How to apply

  • Use this PM routine for your evening skincare. Start using the serum 3 times a week and increase to daily use if your skin feels comfortable.
  • Apply the serum after cleansing and toner, but right before your moisturizer. This step locks in deep hydration for dry skin.
  • Gently press 2-3 drops of the serum into your skin using your palms. Let it absorb completely for a minute ⏱ before applying your next product.
  • Since your skin is sensitive, apply the serum on completely dry skin for better tolerance and less irritation.
  • Avoid the sensitive eye area during application. Always do a patch test before your first use to ensure your skin reacts well.
