How to apply
- Use your moisturizer twice a day in your AM and PM routines. Apply it daily to help smooth fine lines.
- Apply this product after your toner and serum, but before your SPF in the morning. Follow your cleanser and toner steps to keep your skin balanced.
- Gently press a small amount into your face and neck. Avoid rubbing the skin too harshly to prevent extra tension.
- Apply the moisturizer on slightly damp skin to help lock in extra moisture. Clean skin helps the product absorb much more evenly.
- Avoid the sensitive eye area during application. Do a quick patch test before your very first use to stay safe.
Questions and answers
Why does Lovi advise against Dove Beauty Cream for mature skin?
Lovi advises against using this moisturizer on mature skin because it lacks the targeted anti-aging ingredients needed to effectively smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. A product for this skin needs rich nourishing components like peptides and antioxidants to maintain moisture and firmness.
Which ingredients make this cream a poor fit for mature skin?
This cream is a poor match for mature skin because it lacks the targeted anti-aging ingredients needed to effectively smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. A moisturizer for this skin type needs powerful anti-aging components like peptides and antioxidants to maintain firmness and support mature skin.
What does Cocoa Butter do for mature skin?
Cocoa butter is a rich, nourishing blend that helps keep dry or mature skin soft and smooth while protecting it against friction. Studies show that cocoa components may also improve skin elasticity, hydration, and the look of wrinkles over time.
PloS One, 2020International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2008
What does Dimethicone do for mature skin?
Dimethicone helps keep mature skin feeling soft and smooth while protecting the skin barrier. When used regularly, it may improve skin firmness and keep the surface hydrated throughout the day.
Dermatologic Therapy, 2012Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 2007
Where does it go in a skincare routine for mature skin?
This product is a poor match and is not advised for mature skin. A moisturizer for this skin type needs rich hydrators and firming active ingredients to keep it soft, smooth, and nourished.
Can I use this cream with retinol, and in what order?
This cream is a poor match for mature skin, so using it alongside active treatments like retinol is unlikely to provide the supportive barrier benefits you need. Mature skin needs a richer moisturizer packed with nourishing oils, ceramides, and peptides to keep it feeling soft and smooth while handling strong ingredients.
How often should I use it?
This cream is a poor match for mature skin, so it is best to avoid using it. Mature skin needs rich moisturizers with nourishing butters, ceramides, and anti-aging peptides to stay smooth, soft, and firm.
Can this cream clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for mature skin?
This cream is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on mature skin, though rich moisturizers with mineral oil and cocoa butter may sometimes feel heavy. A cream for this skin needs to keep skin soft and smooth without feeling greasy, using lightweight hydrators and nourishing plant oils.
Can I use it around the eyes or on my body?
This cream suits the thin skin around the eyes and the skin on the body. Mature skin needs rich moisturizers with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, botanical extracts, or antioxidants to keep it soft and smooth.
Is this cream fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (parfum, citronellol, coumarin, hexyl cinnamal, limonene, and linalool). Cetyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
What the research says
Wearing an N95 mask alone compared to using dimethicone cream or hydrocolloid dressing caused more adverse skin reactions among 73 military health care workers, with no significant differences in fit test failure rates between groups.
Military Medicine, 2024A dimethicone skin protectant lotion significantly decreased visual scoring and transepidermal water loss compared to vehicle control and SLS-only treated sites in 12 healthy humans exposed to sodium lauryl sulfate.
Skin Research and Technology, 2000Treatment with a moisturizer containing dimethicone and glycerine increased epidermal thickness by 0.019 mm, improved barrier function by decreasing transepidermal water loss by 13%, decreased melanin intensity, and induced keratins 6 and 16 in fifteen women with moderately photoaged forearms.
Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 2007Repeated application of concentrated water-in-oil emulsions over four weeks caused no skin irritation, positively affected skin properties, and delivered almost 50% of the applied fluorescein sodium, with isopropyl myristate showing superior penetration performance compared to liquid paraffin in healthy volunteers.
International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 2019Topical application of an emollient emulsion containing 15.0% caprylic/capric triglyceride doubled the amount of urocanic acid isomers and increased skin hydration with reduced transepidermal water loss in healthy subjects, though it did not prevent ultraviolet-induced urocanic acid isomerization.
