Skincare routine for dry skin

Routine by Lovi · Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes · How the Fit score works

Cleansers, toners, serums, and moisturizers with hyaluronic acid and glycerin help relieve dehydration and fine lines. Cleansers, moisturizers, masks, and serums with ceramides and niacinamide help ease flakiness and tightness.

The morning routine prepares the skin for the day: it cleans off the night, hydrates, and protects, with sunscreen as its last step. The evening routine removes sunscreen, makeup, and the day's oil, then treats the skin while it rests away from the sun. The weekly routine replaces the evening routine once a week to add deeper steps that address flakiness, tightness, and fine lines.
