# Clinique vs Biore

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

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

Clinique and Biore are heritage skincare brands, founded respectively in America in 1968 and Japan in 1980, that offer targeted formulations for varied complexions. The American brand is widely loved for its thoughtful range of moisturizers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/serum), makeup removers, eye products, and more, which incorporate hydrating [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), nourishing [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/glycerin), and invigorating [caffeine](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/caffeine). Meanwhile, the Japanese brand is beloved for its thoughtful sunscreens, cleansers, masks, and makeup removers driven by effective formulas. Both lines suit sensitive skin and oily skin best, yet they differ as the former relies on comforting, balancing ingredients while the latter employs gentle and clarifying ones.

Clinique is an American skincare brand founded in 1968 and owned by The Estée Lauder Companies Inc..
