# NIVEA vs Simple

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/compare/nivea-vs-simple

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

NIVEA and Simple are established drugstore brands known for dependable daily staples, with the German line offering sunscreens, targeted [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ingredients/serum), and nourishing moisturizers enriched with [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ingredients/glycerin), while the British range provides gentle moisturizers, makeup removers, cleansers, and toners featuring [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/ingredients/niacinamide) and glycerin. Both brands suit oily skin and sensitive skin best, with the German collection providing careful barrier support and the UK collection focusing on balanced, skin-loving formulations. While the former brand addresses specific concerns through items like the Protect & Moisture Sun Lotion SPF50+, the latter brand features standout products such as the Kind to Skin Soothing Facial Toner.

NIVEA is a German skincare brand founded in 1911 and owned by maxingvest GmbH & Co. KGaA since 2004.
