# Propylene glycol

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/propylene-glycol

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

Propylene glycol gently calms flaking skin and eases dryness, while remaining very gentle on healthy skin. It suits both dry skin and oily skin well, appearing most often in lightweight [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/serum). Because it layers easily, it fits simply and smoothly into your daily routine.

This page shows propylene glycol products with a Lovi page. For every product, and a routine built for your skin, use the Lovi app.

## Questions and answers

### What does propylene glycol do for the skin?

Propylene glycol helps improve skin hydration and acts as a delivery agent for other active ingredients in topical treatments. When combined with [urea](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/urea) and [lactic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/lactic-acid) in products like K301, it may significantly reduce scalp flaking and related symptoms over four weeks.

### Should you use propylene glycol in the morning or at night?

Propylene glycol may be used both morning and night, as it has a low risk for skin irritation on healthy skin. It is often included in various daily topical treatments to help improve skin conditions.

### Can you use propylene glycol every day?

Propylene glycol is unlikely to cause irritation when used daily on healthy skin because it has a very low sensitization potential.

### Does propylene glycol cause purging or irritation?

Propylene glycol is unlikely to cause irritation on uncompromised skin as it exhibits very low sensitization and irritation potential. It does not cause purging, as purging only occurs with active ingredients that accelerate skin cell turnover.

### Which skin types is propylene glycol best for?

Propylene glycol helps various skin types, achieving top fits with products like Kiehl's [Calendula](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/calendula) Herbal-Extract Toner and Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, [Chamomile](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/chamomile) and [Lavender](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/lavender). Lovi rates Kiehl's Calendula Herbal-Extract Toner as a Superior fit for oily, sensitive, acne-prone, oily acne-prone skin, and skin with dark spots, while giving Mario Badescu Facial Spray a High fit across multiple skin types.

## About the Lovi Fit

Lovi: Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes.

Lovi checks every ingredient with brand-independent rules its dermatologists and cosmetic chemists build and review, and personalizes every pick with AI trained on the real results of millions of users. Lovi trains its fit score models on a proprietary dataset built from more than 10,000 expert-labeled products and more than 100,000 simulated examples, following an internally consistent methodology presented at Cosmoprof, AMWC, and Skin of Color Update. Levels from best to worst: Superior, High, Average, Low, Caution, Warning.
