Lovi Assistant explains

  • Suitable for normal skin, this cleansing oil effectively removes makeup with Ethylhexyl Palmitate and Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, while Camellia Sinensis Seed Oil provides antioxidant benefits. It also offers general skincare benefits like hydration and soothing for wrinkles and fine lines due to Panthenol and Allantoin.
  • The formulation is safe for your normal skin, as it contains soothing ingredients like Allantoin and Panthenol and lacks harsh or prohibited substances.

How to apply

  • Use this makeup remover as part of your PM routine every evening. Start 3x/week and move to daily use as your skin feels comfortable.
  • Apply this makeup remover before your regular cleanser and toner. It acts as the very first step to melt away makeup.
  • Gently massage a small amount of the makeup remover over dry skin to dissolve makeup, then rinse with warm water. Avoid any harsh rubbing around your eyes.
  • Apply this makeup remover directly onto dry skin to effectively break down stubborn makeup and impurities. There is no need to dampen your face beforehand.
  • Do a patch test before your first use to ensure your skin reacts well. Avoid direct contact with your eyes while cleansing.
