# Avène vs RoC

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/compare/avene-vs-roc

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

Avène and RoC are French skincare brands that offer moisturizers, cleansers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/serum), and other products enriched with key ingredients like [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/glycerin). Avène is universally loved for its rich moisturizers, reliable sunscreens, targeted serums, and gentle cleansers, suing oily acne-prone skin and acne-prone skin best, while RoC is beloved for expertly formulated serums, eye products, moisturizers, and cleansers, suiting mature skin and skin with dark spots best. Both brands differ in their formulations and origins, as the former was founded in 1990 and relies on science-backed formulations for a calm and balanced complexion, whereas the latter was founded in 1957 and utilizes proven ingredients like [retinol](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/retinol) to reduce fine wrinkles and increase [collagen](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/collagen).

Avène is a French skincare brand founded in 1990 and owned by Fondation Pierre Fabre.
