# COSRX vs Simple

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/compare/cosrx-vs-simple

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.

COSRX and Simple are distinct skincare lines, with the former being a Korean brand founded in 2013 and the latter a British brand established in 1960. The first brand is beloved for its [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/serum), moisturizers, cleansers, masks, and more, using [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/glycerin), and [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/niacinamide), while Simple is deeply loved for its gentle moisturizers, makeup removers, cleansers, and toners incorporating niacinamide and glycerin. Both brands suit oily skin and acne-prone skin best, as their active components balance excess oil and soothe irritation. They differ in their specific offerings, as the Korean brand features standout solutions like the Advanced [Snail Mucin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/snail-mucin) Gel Cleanser, Full Fit [Propolis](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/propolis) Synergy Toner, and [Centella Water](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/centella-asiatica) Alcohol-Free Toner, whereas the British brand provides the Kind to Skin Soothing Facial Toner and Micellar Cleansing [Water](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/water).

COSRX is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2013 and owned by Amorepacific Group since 2024.
