# Paula's Choice vs BYOMA

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/au/compare/paula-s-choice-vs-byoma

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

Paula's Choice and BYOMA are distinct skincare brands designed to address diverse complexions. Paula's Choice relies on [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/glycerin), and [vitamin c](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/vitamin-c) within [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/au/ingredients/serum), cleansers, moisturizers, and toners that suit oily skin and acne-prone skin best. Conversely, BYOMA harnesses the power of tri-ceramide and squalane across its moisturizers, toners, cleansers, and serums to support dry skin and sensitive skin best. While both brands offer targeted solutions for concerns like acne, dark spots, and aging, they differ fundamentally in their foundational ingredients and ideal skin types.

Paula's Choice is an American skincare brand founded in 1995 and owned by Unilever since 2021.
