# Shiseido vs No7

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/compare/shiseido-vs-no7

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.

Shiseido and No7 are enduring skincare houses originating from Japan in 1872 and Britain in 1935, respectively. The Japanese house is beloved for its thoughtful array of moisturizers, cleansers, sunscreens, and [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/serum), while the British brand covers serums, eye products, moisturizers, sunscreens, and more. Both choices suit mature skin best, though the former also suits sensitive skin with [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/glycerin), and the latter suits dry skin with [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/vitamin-c), [shea butter](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/shea-butter), and [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid). They primarily differ in their heritage and targeted skin types, with the former offering standout treatments like the Treatment Softener, Benefiance Wrinkle Smoothing Day Cream, and Essential Energy Hydrating Cream, and the latter providing solutions such as the Future Renew Damage Reversal Eye Serum, Pure [Retinol](https://lovi.care/skincare/ae/ingredients/retinol) Eye Cream, and Protect & Perfect Intense Advanced Night Cream.

Shiseido is a Japanese skincare brand founded in 1872 and owned by Shiseido Company, Limited.
