# Bioderma vs Clarins

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/compare/bioderma-vs-clarins

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

Bioderma and Clarins are French skincare brands that offer thoughtful arrays of moisturizers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/serum), cleansers, and other products to nourish the complexion. Bioderma features [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/glycerin) and suits dry skin and combination skin best, while Clarins incorporates shea and squalane to suit sensitive skin and dry sensitive skin. Ultimately, the brands differ in their specific formulations, with the first brand relying on gentle, moisture-rich compositions and the second offering luxurious treatments.

Bioderma is a French skincare brand founded in 1977 and owned by Jean-Noël Thorel Foundation since 2018.
