Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate moisturizing for your oily skin due to Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil and Rosa Canina Oil Fruit, which hydrate and enhance barrier resilience, though these oils may exacerbate oiliness.
  • While tocopherol provides soothing benefits, the overall formula's focus on hydration is not directly aligned with managing oily shine.
  • The product is safe for your oily skin, with no harsh ingredients and the inclusion of soothing tocopherol.

How to apply

  • Could be used as part of your AM or PM routine every day to keep your face fresh.
  • Apply this moisturizer after cleansing and toning, but right before your SPF in the morning.
  • Gently press a small amount into your skin and let it absorb fully.
  • Apply on clean, slightly dry skin to help control that oily shine.
  • Avoid the eye area and do a quick patch test before your first use.
