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

Topical application of Low-Peony PDRN and polydeoxyribonucleotide-spermidine nanoparticles helps strengthen the skin barrier, improves periorbital skin elasticity, and supports anti-aging efficacy by enhancing cell migration and percutaneous permeability. This ingredient suits both dry skin and oily skin particularly well when applied in lightweight [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/uk/ingredients/serum). Furthermore, it integrates smoothly into daily regimens because it layers easily with other products.
