# Kiehl's vs Good Molecules

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/de/compare/kiehl-s-vs-good-molecules

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

Kiehl's and Good Molecules are American skincare brands known for their thoughtful moisturizers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/serum), toners, eye products, and more. Kiehl's incorporates nourishing [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/glycerin) and squalane to suit skin with dark spots and combination skin best, while the brand harnesses the soothing power of glycerin and [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid) for dry skin and sensitive skin. They differ primarily in their heritage and targeted ingredients, as the former dates back to 1851 with L'Oréal S.A., whereas the latter was founded in 2019 and is owned by Beautylish, Inc.

Kiehl's is an American skincare brand founded in 1851 and owned by L'Oréal S.A. since 2000.
