A Priest Walks Into a Bar - S1-E9
Continuity mistake: When Malcolm asks Amenadiel if food tasted this good before he died, his hands are clenched into fists with one finger pointing at the food. When the shot changes his hands are open and just facing forward. (00:39:20)
Continuity mistake: At the very start of the episode, the strawberry that the woman bites into changes shape several times between shots. (00:01:30)
St. Lucifer - S1-E11
Continuity mistake: The way Malcolm holds the gun when showing it to Dan changes between shots. Note his grip. (00:06:30)
St. Lucifer - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: At the start, the man's hands change position around the woman during instant cuts. (00:01:40)

Continuity mistake: In the scene in the warehouse, Chloe and Lucifer end up right below where Corazon is tied up. Then blood drips on her hand prompting her to look directly above her head. In the next shot Lucifer turns around and suddenly they're both meters away, looking at the contraption from a distance. (00:26:50)
Continuity mistake: When Chloe turns the picture of the cufflink upside down to Dan, her grip on the photo changes between shots. In one, she has one finger behind the picture, but in the front angle, all of them are at the front. (00:33:10)
Continuity mistake: When Linda asks Amenadiel if he is a real doctor, he has both hands raised. Camera cuts and now he only has one raised. (00:08:20)
Continuity mistake: When Lucifer helps Amenadiel, who has been stabbed with one of Mazikeen's daggers, Lucifer has one hand on Amenadiel and one by the dagger. The camera cuts, and now he has both hands on Amenadiel. (00:21:45)
Answer: As Cain theorises in a later episode, it's Chloe's love, not presence. This early on, Chloe had no strong feelings for Lucifer, so had no effect on his immortality. In fact even more recently he's back to being invulnerable around her after speculation that he chose to let himself be vulnerable. So while there's a degree of flexibility / retconning going on, it's all explained in-show.
