# Elemis vs Galderma

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/compare/elemis-vs-galderma

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

Elemis and Galderma are established skincare companies that offer distinct approaches to daily care, with the British brand founded in 1989 and the Swiss brand founded in 1981. Elemis is celebrated for its nourishing [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/serum), rich moisturizers, gentle cleansers, and refreshing toners anchored by hydrating [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ca/ingredients/glycerin) and softening shea, while the Swiss brand provides specialized serums. The British brand suits mature skin and dry skin best, whereas its counterpart fits oily skin and combination skin best. Ultimately, they differ in their foundational formulations and ideal skin types, providing tailored options for various skincare needs.

Elemis is a British skincare brand founded in 1989 and owned by L'Occitane Group since 2019.
