Simple and Rilastil are two distinct skincare lines known for their careful attention to various complexions. The British brand founded in 1960 offers gentle moisturizers, soothing makeup removers, dependable cleansers, and refreshing toners enriched with niacinamide and glycerin that suit oily and mature skin best. Meanwhile, the Italian line is warmly loved for its targeted serums and meticulously balanced formulas that suit sensitive, dry, and mature skin types best. While both cater to mature skin, they differ because the former features standout micellar waters and toners for acne and dark spots, whereas the latter relies on compositions like Acnestil to restore daily comfort and enhance natural resilience.
Simple is a British skincare brand founded in 1960 and owned by Unilever PLC since 2011.
