Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate exfoliation for dry or flaky skin due to salicylic acid, but Melaleuca Alternifolia Tree Oil Leaf and salicylic acid can have a drying effect, making it less suitable for your dry skin type.
  • Niacinamide is present to reduce inflammation and offers some soothing benefits, which is helpful for your skin.

How to apply

  • Apply this serum PM, starting 3脳/week and working up to daily use as your skin adjusts.
  • Place the serum after cleansing and toner, but right before your moisturizer.
  • Gently press 2-3 drops of the serum into your skin and let it absorb for a minute.
  • Apply the serum on slightly damp skin to help lock in extra moisture.
  • Avoid the eye area and do a patch test before your first use.

Questions and answers

Why does Lovi advise caution with ZitSticka Goo Getter for dry skin?

Salicylic acid and tree oil in this spot treatment can have a drying effect on dry skin, making it a poor match. A treatment for dry skin needs deeply hydrating and soothing ingredients like ceramides, peptides, and niacinamide to support the skin barrier without irritation.

Which ingredients make this patch a poor fit for dry skin?

Salicylic acid and Melaleuca Alternifolia Tree Oil Leaf make this patch a poor fit for dry skin because they can have a drying effect. A treatment for dry skin needs highly effective, soothing ingredients that provide significant hydration and support skin health without any risk of irritation.

What does Hydrocolloid do for dry skin?

Hydrocolloid locks in moisture to keep dry skin hydrated and soft. It helps trap water and reduce water loss, making your skin feel smoother.

Acta Dermato-venereologica, 1994Advances in Skin & Wound Care, 2013

What does Niacinamide do for dry skin?

Niacinamide helps dry skin by strengthening the skin barrier, increasing hydration, and reducing water loss. It supports ceramide production and helps keep the surface smooth and calm. This ingredient tends to be very well tolerated and is unlikely to irritate dry skin.

Where does this patch go in a skincare routine for dry skin?

This treatment goes in the evening routine after cleansing and before moisturizing, but it requires caution on dry skin because ingredients like salicylic acid and oil tree may have a drying effect. To be safe on dry skin, this type of product needs soothing and calming ingredients like niacinamide along with plenty of moisture.

Can I use it with retinol, and in what order?

Using this treatment with retinol may cause excessive dryness and irritation on dry skin since the ingredients can dry out your skin further. To use them safely, apply your retinol first, let it absorb, and place this spot treatment only on active breakouts while skipping it on the rest of your face. Dry skin types need gentle, hydrating ingredients and nourishing moisturizers instead of harsh blemish patches to keep the skin soft and calm.

How often should I use it?

Use it in the evening once a week to start, because ingredients like salicylic acid and oil tree can be drying on dry skin. A product of this type needs soothing ingredients like niacinamide and rich moisturizers to help keep dry skin calm and comfortable.

Can it clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for dry skin?

This treatment is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on dry skin, though salicylic acid may cause mild peeling if your skin is very flaky. This type of product needs soothing ingredients and gentle moisturizers to keep dry skin calm and comfortable.

Is it fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
