# Clarins vs RoC

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/au/compare/clarins-vs-roc

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

Clarins and RoC are French skincare brands founded in the 1950s that offer moisturizers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/serum), and eye products. Clarins is loved for gentle toners, shea, and squalane, suiting sensitive and dry sensitive skin best, while RoC is beloved for cleansers, [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/glycerin), and [retinol](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/retinol), suiting acne-prone and mature skin best. Both brands provide standout treatments for concerns like dark spots, yet they differ in their primary formulations and target skin types.

Clarins is a French skincare brand founded in 1954 and owned by Famille C (Groupe Clarins).
