Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Highly suitable for normal skin due to the presence of Glycerin and Hydroxyethyl Urea for humectant action and Collagen Extract and peptides for collagen stimulation.
- While it offers excellent moisturizing and plumping benefits, it does not directly address your redness and irritation concerns due to the lack of specialized anti-inflammatory ingredients.
- The safety profile is excellent, with no risks of irritation for your sensitive skin due to the absence of harsh ingredients and the inclusion of soothing components like dipotassium glycyrrhizate and allantoin.
How to apply
- Use this soothing AM and PM routine every day to keep your normal skin calm. Always remember to apply SPF in the morning after your moisturizer.
- Apply your moisturizer after your toner in the morning, and after your serum in the evening. This step locks in hydration and protects your skin.
- Gently press a small amount of the moisturizer evenly across your face. Avoid rubbing to keep your sensitive skin happy and calm.
- You can apply this gentle formula on dry or slightly damp skin for the best comfort. It works wonderfully on clean skin to soothe redness and irritation.
- Do a patch test before your very first use to check your skin's reaction. Avoid getting the product directly into your eyes .
