Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Suitable for normal skin due to the presence of Hyaluronic Acid and Squalane, which provide humectant and emollient actions respectively, supporting skin hydration and barrier function, but it does not directly address your redness and irritation concerns.
- Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid offer moderate moisturizing benefits, while Ascorbic Acid provides antioxidant protection, though these may not be specialized enough for your specific skin issues.
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 .

Questions and answers
Why is Dermasil Night Cream a weak match for sensitive skin?
Dermasil Night Cream is a weak match for sensitive skin because it does not directly address redness and irritation concerns. A moisturizing treatment for sensitive skin needs soothing ingredients like fermented Centella Asiatica and Cica Ceramide to calm the skin and support its barrier without causing irritation.
Which ingredients make this cream a poor fit for sensitive skin?
This cream is a weak match for sensitive skin because it lacks specialized ingredients that target redness and irritation. Sensitive skin needs soothing ingredients like fermented Centella Asiatica, cica ceramide, and nourishing oils to calm irritation and strengthen the skin barrier.
What does Water do for sensitive skin?
Using cool water for facial cleansing preserves skin barrier integrity and lowers skin surface pH in healthy adults. This helps keep skin calm and hydrated without causing the irritation associated with warmer water.
What does Coco-Caprylate do for sensitive skin?
Coco-Caprylate softens and smooths sensitive skin by acting as a light moisturizer that keeps the skin feeling comfortable. It is well tolerated and is unlikely to cause irritation.
Where does this cream go in a skincare routine for sensitive skin?
This cream is used in the evening routine as a treatment step, applied after your soothing toner and before your moisturizer. Because this product is a weak match for sensitive skin, a better fit for this skin needs gentle, soothing ingredients that calm redness and irritation while supporting skin hydration.
Can I use this cream with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this cream in the evening after your retinol treatment, but it is a weak match because it does not directly address redness and irritation. Sensitive skin needs a product of this type that includes soothing ingredients and barrier-repairing elements like ceramides or licochalcone A to calm irritation.
How often should I use this cream?
This cream is a weak match for sensitive skin because it does not directly address redness and irritation. To fit this skin type better, a product needs soothing and calming ingredients that relieve discomfort while keeping the skin soft and smooth.
Can this cream clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for sensitive skin?
This cream is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for sensitive skin, though it may not calm your redness and irritation. A product for this skin needs soothing ingredients and gentle hydrators that keep your face calm and soft without heavy feel.
Can I use this cream around the eyes or on my body?
This cream is suitable for the body and the thin skin around the eyes because its general formula provides basic moisture and hydration. A product of this type needs gentle ingredients like glycerin and hyaluronic acid to keep skin soft and smooth without causing irritation.
Is this cream fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. Cetearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
