# Biore vs RoC

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/compare/biore-vs-roc

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

Biore and RoC are established skincare brands from Japan and France, respectively, offering distinct approaches to daily care. Biore provides gentle sunscreens, cleansers, masks, and makeup removers that suit sensitive skin and oily skin best. Conversely, RoC features expertly formulated [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/serum), eye products, moisturizers, and cleansers enriched with [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/glycerin) and [retinol](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/retinol) to care for mature skin and dry skin best. While both lines support a refreshed complexion, they differ in their core ingredients and primary target skin types.

Biore is a Japanese skincare brand founded in 1980 and owned by Kao Corporation.
