# A+ vs Biluma

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/au/compare/a-vs-biluma

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

A+ and Biluma are Indian skincare brands offering thoughtfully calibrated formulas for daily care. The 1990-established A+ is beloved for its gentle moisturizers, suiting sensitive skin best with a mild composition that supports moisture balance, while the 2014 Galderma-owned Biluma is known for sophisticated [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/serum) that suit combination, sensitive, and dry skin. Both provide reliable options for specific concerns, such as the 345 Relief Cream from the former and the acne-prone skin cream from the latter. Ultimately, they differ mainly in their foundational product types and target skin types.

A+ is an Indian skincare brand founded in 1990.
