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

Work well together

Use them together in the same routine, applying [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/niacinamide) first and [zinc sulfate](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/zinc-sulfate) second to boost oil control. Niacinamide calms redness while [zinc](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/zinc) helps clear breakouts, making them work better as a team. If your skin feels dry or sensitive, use a lower strength or apply them on alternate nights.
