Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate skin barrier strengthening for your normal skin, as ceramides and phytosphingosine enhance resilience, while Morinda Citrifolia Fruit Extract and Allantoin provide hydration and soothing benefits for redness and irritation.
- Glycerin and sodium hyaluronate offer humectant action, complementing the barrier repair ingredients for overall skin comfort.
- The formulation is safe for your sensitive skin, with no harsh ingredients or irritation risks.
How to apply
- Use your serum in the PM routine, starting 3 times a week before building up to daily use if your skin is happy.
- Apply the serum after cleansing and toning, but before putting on your moisturizer for the best results.
- Gently press 2-3 drops of the serum into your skin and wait a minute ⏱ for it to soak in.
- Since your skin is sensitive and easily irritated, apply the serum on completely dry skin to help keep it calm.
- Always do a patch test before your first use and avoid getting the serum too close to your eyes .
People Say
★4.7Overall rating based on 1.8k+ reviewsBased on a very large amount of data, this ampoule is widely praised as a lightweight, soothing treatment that effectively hydrates and calms irritated or sensitive skin, often resulting in a healthy "glass skin" glow. While many users with acne-prone and dehydrated skin consider it a "holy grail" for reducing redness and strengthening the skin barrier, a minority find the herbal scent overpowering or the hydration insufficient for extremely dry skin without layering.

International Journal of Dermatology, 2008Journal of Natural Medicines, 2009
What does Noni Fruit Extract do for sensitive skin?
Noni Fruit Extract helps calm sensitive skin and may reduce redness from sun exposure. It works by easing irritation and supporting the skin barrier so it feels more comfortable.
Journal of Natural Medicines, 2009BioMed Research International, 2014
What does Butylene Glycol do for sensitive skin?
Butylene glycol helps keep dry skin hydrated and smooth, but it may cause allergic reactions or irritation in sensitive skin. A product for sensitive skin needs soothing extracts and a very gentle, tested safety profile to avoid redness and discomfort.
Journal of Controlled Release, 2022The Journal of Dermatology, 2014
Where does this serum go in a skincare routine for sensitive skin?
Apply this treatment serum in the evening after your soothing toner and before your moisturizer. This routine step keeps things simple and provides extra safety around sun exposure for sensitive skin.
Can I use this serum with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this serum with retinol by applying the serum first to keep your sensitive skin calm and hydrated, followed by retinol once it absorbs. This product is safe and unlikely to cause irritation, but sensitive skin still needs soothing ingredients like ceramides and plant extracts to comfortably handle stronger treatments.
How often should I use this serum?
You can use this treatment in your evening routine, applying it after your toner and before your moisturizer. It is safe for your sensitive skin, but since it offers an average fit, this skin needs a product that provides stronger barrier support with extra ceramides and calming plant extracts.
Can this serum clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for sensitive skin?
This serum is unlikely to cause breakouts for sensitive skin, as it has a very safe formula with low complaints about clogged pores. Sensitive skin also needs soothing plant extracts, ceramides, and light hydrators to keep the face calm and smooth without feeling heavy.
Is this serum fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
