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

Formulations containing cyclodextrin help improve ingredient solubility and skin permeability while eliminating irritating alcohol and [propylene glycol](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/propylene-glycol), showing good skin tolerability without disrupting the skin barrier function. This ingredient suits most skin types best and is commonly found in [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/serum). It fits easily into a daily routine because it layers well with other products.
