# Estée Lauder vs Clarins

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

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

Estée Lauder and Clarins represent renowned heritage houses, with the American pioneer established in 1946 and the French counterpart founded in 1946 [wait, 1954]. Estée Lauder is beloved for its comprehensive collections of moisturizers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/serum), eye products, cleansers, and more, which thoughtfully incorporate [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid) and [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/glycerin), while the latter is loved for its luxurious moisturizers, potent serums, soothing eye products, and gentle toners enriched with nourishing shea and hydrating squalane. The former suits dry sensitive skin and dry skin best, whereas both the latter and its peer cater effectively to sensitive skin and dry sensitive skin. They differ in their targeted offerings and core ingredients, as the American house utilizes hyaluronic acid to lengthen the effect of botulinum toxin and glycerin to increase barrier function, while the European brand relies on [shea butter](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/shea-butter) to reduce redness and squalane to increase [collagen](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/collagen).

Estée Lauder is an American skincare brand founded in 1946 and owned by The Estée Lauder Companies Inc..
