Weleda vs KORRES

Rated by Lovi · Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes · How the Fit score works

Weleda and KORRES are botanical skincare pioneers rooted in European heritage, with the former founded in Switzerland in 1921. Both brands are widely loved for their thoughtfully crafted moisturizers and gentle formulas, though the Swiss house focuses primarily on rich preparations while the Greek label is also known for gentle cleansers. The Swiss line suits sensitive skin best, offering targeted relief for acne-prone skin with its Skin Food Light and addressing dark spots with the classic Skin Food. Meanwhile, the Greek collection suits dry, sensitive, normal, and combination skin, featuring the Santorini Grape Poreless Skin Cream for acne-prone concerns, the Greek Yoghurt Foaming Cream Cleanser for dark spots, and the Bounce Firming Moisturizer for mature skin. While the former relies on meticulous botanical bases, the latter draws on ingredients that work harmoniously to support the natural balance of the complexion.

Weleda is a Swiss skincare brand founded in 1921 and owned by Weleda AG.
