Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works

Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate hydration and soothing benefits for your normal skin due to ingredients like glycerin and Centella Asiatica Extract, but lacks targeted ingredients to address your main goal of pigmentation.
  • Artemisia Capillaris Extract provides anti-inflammatory action, which is beneficial for your normal skin type.
  • The product is safe for your normal skin, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of harsh ingredients and the presence of soothing components.

How to apply

  • Could be used as part of your AM and PM routine. Start using it 3 times a week and move to daily use if your skin likes it.
  • Apply this moisturizer after your cleanser and toner, right before your morning SPF.
  • Gently press a small amount of the moisturizer into your skin. Avoid rubbing it too hard so it absorbs nicely.
  • For the best moisture, you can apply it when your skin is slightly damp. This helps your skin stay soft and happy.
  • Remember to avoid the eye area when applying. Always do a patch test before your first use.

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

You can use this cream alongside retinol, applying it after your retinol treatment to help calm your skin and keep it comfortable.

This moisturizing treatment is safe to use on the thin skin around your eyes and on your body, as it has a very good safety profile and is unlikely to cause irritation.
