Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works

Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate suitability for your oily skin, as Isobutylamido Thiazolyl Resorcinol effectively brightens and evens skin tone, while Glycerin provides hydration. However, it lacks targeted ingredients to address your primary concerns of acne, blemishes, and oiliness.
  • The inclusion of Tocopherol offers antioxidant benefits supportive for acne-prone skin, and while Glycerin aids in humectant action for oily skin, the formula does not provide sufficient oil control.
  • The product is generally safe for your oily skin, with minimal risks of irritation from alcohol denat and fragrance.

How to apply

  • Could be used as part of your PM routine. Start 3 times a week and build up to daily use if your skin tolerates it well.
  • Apply your serum after cleansing and toning, but before putting on your moisturizer.
  • Gently press 2 to 3 drops of the serum into your skin and let it absorb for a minute.
  • Apply the serum on clean, dry skin to help manage your blemishes safely.
  • Do a patch test before your first use and avoid the delicate eye area.
