# Avène vs Galderma

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/au/compare/avene-vs-galderma

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

Avène and Galderma are a French brand founded in 1990 and a Swiss brand founded in 1981, respectively. The French brand offers rich moisturizers, reliable sunscreens, targeted [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/serum), gentle cleansers, and hydrating [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/glycerin), whereas the Swiss brand covers serums. Both options suit oily acne-prone skin best, though the French label also caters to acne-prone skin specifically. The first brand relies on science-backed formulations featuring key ingredients like glycerin to ensure a calm complexion, while the second brand offers targeted treatments such as Epiduo Gel and Benzac gels.

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