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

Work well together

Apply [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/glycerin) first and [copper peptide](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/copper-peptide) next, because layering them together boosts your skin hydration and helps the peptide work better. Glycerin brings in deep moisture, which helps the copper peptide absorb better and keeps your skin barrier strong. You do not need to change anything since this combination is already gentle and effective.

## Questions and answers

### Can you use glycerin and copper peptide together?

Yes, [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/glycerin) and [copper peptide](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/copper-peptide) work well together to enhance skin hydration and peptide delivery. You can find them combined in products like KOA LIFE COPPER PEPTIDE TONER, Good Molecules Super Peptide [Serum](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/serum), COSRX Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream, MEDI-PEEL Extra Super 9, and Pyunkang Yul Ato Cream Blue Label.

[Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Which goes first, glycerin or copper peptide?

Glycerin goes first because layering a hydrating serum beneath a peptide product helps increase peptide diffusion and supports barrier integrity. You can find both ingredients together in finished products like KOA LIFE COPPER PEPTIDE TONER, Good Molecules Super Peptide Serum, COSRX Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream, MEDI-PEEL Extra Super 9, and Pyunkang Yul Ato Cream Blue Label.

[Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Are glycerin and copper peptide good for sensitive skin?

Yes, glycerin and copper peptide work well together to enhance hydration and support the skin barrier for all skin types, including dry and sensitive skin. You can find them combined in products like KOA LIFE COPPER PEPTIDE TONER, Good Molecules Super Peptide Serum, COSRX Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream, MEDI-PEEL Extra Super 9, and Pyunkang Yul Ato Cream Blue Label.
