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

KORRES and grace & stella are two distinct skincare lines offering thoughtful daily care. The first brand is widely loved for its thoughtfully formulated moisturizers and cleansers featuring key ingredients like Santorini [grape](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/grape), Greek yoghurt, and restorative agents that suit dry skin and mature skin best. Meanwhile, the Canadian brand founded in 2016 is known for nourishing eye products and moisturizers designed for all skin types, including standout options like the Under Eye Mask and [Hyaluronic Acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid) [Serum](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/serum). While both utilize gentle preparations to maintain balanced, healthy-looking skin, KORRES focuses on targeted concerns like acne and dark spots with specific creams, whereas grace & stella emphasizes general hydration and self-care.

grace & stella is a Canadian skincare brand founded in 2016 and owned by Gravitiq since 2022.
