# Cetaphil vs Kiehl's

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/compare/cetaphil-vs-kiehl-s

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

Cetaphil and Kiehl's are two American skincare brands offering distinct approaches to daily care. The first is widely loved for its thoughtful lineup of cleansers, moisturizers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/serum), sunscreens, and more, featuring nourishing ingredients like [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/glycerin), [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/niacinamide), and [panthenol](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/panthenol). Conversely, the second is loved for its nourishing moisturizers, targeted serums, soothing toners, gentle eye products, and more, which rely on dependable ingredients like glycerin and squalane. While products from the former suit combination skin and oily acne-prone skin best, items from the latter suit mature skin and sensitive skin best because of their gentle formulations and barrier-supporting properties.

Cetaphil is an American skincare brand founded in 1947 and owned by Galderma Group AG.
