Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/dry-skin The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Italy. Brand: Prosacea Category: [Serums and treatments](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/best/serums) This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with dry skin: flakiness, tightness, dehydration, fine lines, and wrinkles. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app. A weak match for dry skin; the serums alongside fit it better. ## Why this fit - Offers moderate treatment for rosacea due to sulphur helping reduce redness and inflammation, but it may worsen dryness for your dry skin due to the absence of humectant or emollient ingredients. - Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice provides some soothing benefits for dry or flaky skin, but its overall effectiveness is limited for your specific concerns. ## Fit by skin type - [Oily skin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/oily-skin): Average - [Dry skin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/dry-skin): Low (this page) - [Combination skin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/combination-skin): Average - [Sensitive skin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/sensitive-skin): High - [Acne-prone skin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/acne-prone-skin): Average - [Skin with dark spots](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/dark-spots): Average - [Mature skin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/mature-skin): Average - [Dry sensitive skin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/dry-sensitive-skin): Low - [Oily acne-prone skin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/prosacea/rosacea-treatment-gel/for/oily-acne-prone-skin): Average ## Key ingredients Sulphur, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Diazolidinyl Urea, Methylparaben, Propylene Glycol ## What the research says - Azelaic acid was probably less effective than benzoyl peroxide in acne treatment response, while showing little or no difference compared to tretinoin, and adverse events were mild and transient across evaluated topical treatments. ([Journal of Evidence-based Medicine, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33034949/)) - Topical application of precipitated sulphur 2-8% petrolatum achieved a 95% clinical and ectoparasitological cure rate in 40 ambulatory scabies patients without relevant adverse effects. ([Revista de Investigacion Clinica; Organo Del Hospital de Enfermedades de la Nutricion, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15776866/)) - Topical 10% benzoyl peroxide and 2%-5% sulfur cream achieved "good" to "excellent" results with no undesirable side effects in 113 consecutive patients with acne. ([Canadian Medical Association Journal, 1966](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4223133/)) - A cream combining propolis, tea tree oil, and Aloe vera reduced erythema scars, acne severity index, and total lesion count better than erythromycin cream in sixty patients with mild to moderate acne vulgaris compared to placebo. ([Clinical Pharmacology, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30588129/)) - Topical aloe vera gel significantly accelerated split-thickness skin graft donor-site healing compared to placebo in 12 patients, but showed no significant difference in pain relief. ([Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29649056/)) - Topical application of Aloe vera cream reduced postoperative pain at rest and during defecation, accelerated wound healing at two weeks, and decreased analgesic requirements in patients after open hemorrhoidectomy compared to placebo. ([Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, 2010](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20569031/)) - Treatment with a combination of propylene glycol, ethanol, water, and shampoo was found effective, easy to use, and cosmetically attractive with no observed side effects in patients with dandruff. ([Cutis, 1988](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2970946/)) - A moisturizer containing glycerol and propylene glycol reduced transepidermal water loss, decreased epidermal thickness, increased stratum corneum thickness, and reduced dermal inflammatory infiltrate compared to untreated disrupted skin in six healthy beagle dogs. ([Veterinary Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32628309/)) ## Why other serums fit dry skin better - A topical serum containing vitamin C, vitamin E, and raspberry leaf cell culture extract improved skin color, elasticity, radiance, smoothness, scaliness, and wrinkles compared to the untreated contralateral side in fifty female volunteers. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31975502/)) - Treatment with cross-linked hyaluronic acid-based microneedle patches combined with acetyl hexapeptide-8 or epidermal growth factor significantly improved wrinkles and skin hydration compared to the patch alone in Korean females over 29 days. ([Annals of Dermatology, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33911590/)) ## How to apply - Apply this serum PM, starting 3×/week and working up to daily use as your skin adjusts. - Place the serum after cleansing and toner, but right before your moisturizer. - Gently press 2-3 drops of the serum into your skin and let it absorb for a minute. - Apply the serum on slightly damp skin to help lock in extra moisture. - Avoid the eye area and do a patch test before your first use. - Video: https://storage.pora.ai/c879dda8655a61c19d3d8c9ebad6b06d.mp4 ## Questions and answers ### What does Sulfur do for dry skin? Sulfur helps calm and soothe dry skin by reducing irritation and dryness when used as part of your routine. Topical sulfur is unlikely to cause major issues and generally has very rare mild side effects. Sources: [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38311842/), [Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15303787/) ### What does Aloe Vera Leaf Juice do for dry skin? Aloe Vera Leaf Juice helps increase water content in dry skin to keep it feeling soft and smooth. It works well to boost hydration without changing water loss through the skin. Sources: [Skin Research and Technology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17026654/) ### Where does this treatment go in a skincare routine for dry skin? This treatment goes in the evening routine after your cleanser and before your moisturizer. Because it may worsen dryness for your dry skin, a product of this type needs hydrating and softening ingredients to keep your skin comfortable. ### Can I use this treatment with retinol, and in what order? Using this treatment with retinol may easily dry out and irritate your skin because both ingredients are strong, so you should use them on alternate nights or separate them between your morning and evening routines. This type of product needs extra moisturizing and softening ingredients to keep dry skin comfortable. ### How often should I use this treatment? This treatment is a weak match for your dry skin and may worsen your dryness, so use it carefully in the evening as part of a routine that also includes a rich moisturizer. A product of this type needs soothing ingredients and heavy hydrators to keep dry skin comfortable while managing redness. Sources: [Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15303787/) ### Can this treatment clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for dry skin? This treatment is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts, but it may worsen dryness for your dry skin because it lacks moisturizing and softening ingredients. A treatment for dry skin needs nourishing oils and soothing hydrators like ceramides and glycerin to keep your skin soft and smooth. Sources: [Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2004](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15303787/) ### Is this treatment fragrance-free and alcohol-free? Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. ## Alternatives for dry skin - [Paula's Choice RESIST Super Antioxidant Concentrate Serum](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/paula-s-choice/resist-super-antioxidant-concentrate-serum/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €57.00 at Amazon - [ma:nyo Bifida Biome Complex Ampoule](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/ma-nyo/bifida-biome-complex-ampoule/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €20.29 at Amazon - [KraveBeauty Great Barrier Relief](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/kravebeauty/great-barrier-relief/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €48.70 at Amazon ## Routine for dry skin ### AM - Cleanser: [CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/cerave/hydrating-facial-cleanser/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €9.19 at Amazon - Hydrating Toner: [Pyunkang Yul Calming Deep Moisture Toner](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/pyunkang-yul/calming-deep-moisture-toner/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €15.16 at Amazon - Moisturizer: [Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Lift and Firm Night Cream](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/elizabeth-arden/advanced-ceramide-lift-and-firm-night-cream/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €53.50 at Amazon - SPF: [Thinkbaby Safe Sunscreen SPF 50+](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/thinkbaby/safe-sunscreen-spf-50/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €37.19 at Amazon ### PM - Pre-Cleanser: [MISSHA Ultra Hyalon Cleansing Cream](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/missha/ultra-hyalon-cleansing-cream/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €15.90 at Amazon - Cleanser: [CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/cerave/hydrating-facial-cleanser/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €9.19 at Amazon - Serum or Treatment: [SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Poremizing Fresh Ampoule](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/skin1004/madagascar-centella-poremizing-fresh-ampoule/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €16.60 at Amazon - Moisturizer: [Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Lift and Firm Night Cream](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/elizabeth-arden/advanced-ceramide-lift-and-firm-night-cream/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €53.50 at Amazon ### Weekly - Pre-Cleanser: [MISSHA Ultra Hyalon Cleansing Cream](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/missha/ultra-hyalon-cleansing-cream/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €15.90 at Amazon - Cleanser: [CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/cerave/hydrating-facial-cleanser/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €9.19 at Amazon - Nourishing Mask: [MEDIHEAL Vita Essential Mask](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/mediheal/vita-essential-mask/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €31.93 at Amazon - Serum or Treatment: [SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Poremizing Fresh Ampoule](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/skin1004/madagascar-centella-poremizing-fresh-ampoule/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €16.60 at Amazon - Moisturizer: [Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Lift and Firm Night Cream](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/p/elizabeth-arden/advanced-ceramide-lift-and-firm-night-cream/for/dry-skin) — Superior fit — €53.50 at Amazon ## Where to buy No store in Italy has a checked price for this product, so the page shows none. ## Ingredients Sulphur, Acrylates, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Diazolidinyl Urea, Lactose, Methylparaben, Propylene Glycol, Propylparaben, Tetrasodium Edta, Triethanolamine, Water ## About the Lovi Fit Lovi: Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes.
