# NIVEA vs Allies of Skin

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/de/compare/nivea-vs-allies-of-skin

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

NIVEA and Allies of Skin are two distinct skincare options, with the German brand founded in 1911 and owned by maxingvest GmbH & Co. KGaA since 2004 offering versatile sunscreens, targeted [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/serum), and nourishing moisturizers formulated with [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/glycerin), while Allies of Skin is known for luxurious moisturizers, potent serums, and targeted eye products formulated with powerhouse ingredients like [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/niacinamide). The former suits sensitive skin and oily skin best through gentle care and lightweight hydration, whereas the latter suits dry skin and acne-prone skin best thanks to deeply nourishing and clarifying formulations. While both brands address concerns like dark spots and mature skin through standout items such as the LUMINOUS630 ANTI-DARK SPOT SERUM and the Peptides & Antioxidants Firming Daily Treatment, they differ in their core approach, with the first brand improving stratum corneum hydration and barrier function using glycerin, and the second brand improving skin aging signs and decreasing hyperpigmentation using niacinamide to restore a clear, balanced complexion.

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