Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate suitability for normal skin as Bifida Lysate Ferment and Niacinamide support barrier repair and regulate melanogenesis, though it lacks sufficient humectants for optimal hydration.
  • The formula provides general skincare benefits like hydration and soothing, which are supportive for your wrinkles and fine lines, due to the presence of Bifida Lysate Ferment and Niacinamide.
  • The product is safe for your normal skin with no risks of irritation due to the absence of prohibited or harsh ingredients.

How to apply

  • Use this serum in your PM routine. Start by applying it 3 times a week, and work up to daily use if your skin likes it.
  • Apply this serum after your toner and before your moisturizer.
  • Gently press 2-3 drops of the serum into your skin and let it absorb for a minute.
  • You can apply the serum on dry skin for the best results against fine lines.
  • Always do a patch test before your first use and avoid the sensitive eye area.

Where does this serum go in a skincare routine for mature skin?

Can I use this serum with retinol, and in what order?
