# Menthol

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/menthol

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

Topical menthol provides a soothing cooling sensation that visibly calms skin by reducing itch intensity and flare diameters, while also subtly influencing cold sensitivity. It suits individuals with dry skin and oily skin best, and is most commonly experienced in lightweight [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/serum). Because of its fluid texture, it layers easily into any daily routine.

## Questions and answers

### What does menthol do for the skin?
