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

Brand: [Eminence](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/brands/eminence)
Category: [Moisturizers and moisturizing serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/best/moisturizers)

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 poor match for dry sensitive skin; the moisturizers alongside fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate exfoliation for your dry and sensitive skin due to the presence of salicylic acid and lactic acid, which can be drying and potentially irritating, rather than providing the emollient action needed for dry skin.
- While glycerin and panthenol offer some hydration, the overall formulation is not ideal for your dry skin type.

## Questions and answers

### Why does Lovi advise caution with Eminence Clear Skin Probiotic Moisturizer for dry sensitive skin?

Lovi advises caution because this moisturizer offers moderate exfoliation from salicylic acid and lactic acid that can dry out and irritate dry sensitive skin, rather than providing the heavy moisture it needs. A product for this skin needs rich nourishing ingredients and gentle hydrators like glycerin that lock in moisture and support the skin barrier without causing irritation.

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

Salicylic acid and lactic acid make this cream a poor fit because they offer moderate exfoliation that can dry and irritate dry sensitive skin, rather than the rich oils and hydrating agents needed to nourish and support this skin type.

### What do Probiotics do for dry sensitive skin?

Probiotics help dry sensitive skin by calming irritation, strengthening the skin barrier, and locking in moisture. These ingredients may also reduce redness and help keep the skin calm against everyday triggers.
Sources: [Experimental Dermatology, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31021014/), [Experimental Dermatology, 2010](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19624730/)

### What does Willow Bark Extract do for dry sensitive skin?

Willow bark extract helps calm dry, sensitive skin by reducing redness and irritation without causing discomfort. It also supports deep hydration and smoother skin while soothing flare-ups safely.
Sources: [Nanomaterials, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35889587/), [Planta Medica, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30690691/)

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

This product is a poor match for your dry and sensitive skin because its acids can be drying and irritating instead of providing the rich, smoothing moisture this skin needs. When used in a routine for this skin, treatments of this type go in the evening to help with safety, and this skin needs gentle hydrators and rich barrier-supporting ingredients like ceramides and natural oils.

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

Using this cream with retinol is not recommended for dry and sensitive skin, because it contains exfoliating acids like salicylic and lactic acid that may cause dryness and irritation instead of soothing the skin. Dry skin needs rich, protective moisturizers with soothing ingredients and ceramides to keep it soft and comfortable.

### How often should I use it?

This product calls for caution on your dry sensitive skin because it provides exfoliating acids rather than the rich, comforting moisture your skin needs. Dry skin needs rich creams with nourishing butters and soothing plant oils to stay soft and smooth.

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

This cream is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on dry sensitive skin, but it may cause irritation rather than providing the deep moisture your skin needs. A moisturizer for dry sensitive skin needs rich nourishing oils and soothing ingredients to keep it soft and calm without acids that can dry it out.

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

This moisturizer is not ideal for the thin skin around the eyes or on the body since it contains exfoliating acids that may cause dryness and irritation. Dry skin on the body and around the eyes needs rich, soothing oils and butters to lock in moisture and keep the skin soft.
Sources: [Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12375070/)

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

It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (benzyl alcohol). Cetearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
