Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers high suitability for your dry and sensitive skin as glycerin and niacinamide provide essential hydration and support your skin barrier. Ascorbic acid further enhances skin tone and texture, addressing dryness and flakiness effectively.
- Collagen amino acids and ubiquinone contribute to smoothing and brightening, complementing the primary humectant and antioxidant benefits for overall skin radiance.
- The formulation is safe for your skin, containing no harsh or irritating ingredients and is well-tolerated by sensitive and dry skin types.
How to apply
- Could be used as part of your AM or PM routine. Start using your sheet mask 3 times a week and increase to daily use if your dry skin tolerates it.
- Apply the sheet mask right after cleansing and toning, but always before your rich moisturizer .
- Unfold the sheet mask gently and smooth it evenly over your face, avoiding any harsh pulling or rubbing.
- Place the sheet mask onto clean, slightly damp skin to help lock in extra moisture for flaky areas.
- Avoid the sensitive eye area and do a quick patch test before your very first use.
