Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/de/compare/skin1004-vs-garnier-skinactive

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

SKIN1004 and Garnier SkinActive are established skincare brands that offer diverse formulations for daily routines. The Korean brand is known for toners, moisturizers, sunscreens, and masks featuring [centella asiatica](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/centella-asiatica), [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), and [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/niacinamide), while the French brand is loved for nourishing makeup removers, moisturizers, exfoliants, and sunscreens thoughtfully formulated with [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/glycerin). SKIN1004 fits combination and sensitive skin best, whereas Garnier SkinActive suits oily and combination skin best. They differ primarily in their core ingredient philosophies and regional heritage, with the former emphasizing botanical soothing agents and the latter focusing on hydration through glycerin.

SKIN1004 is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2012 and owned by Goodai Global Inc. since 2024.
