# SKIN1004 vs NIVEA

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

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

SKIN1004 and NIVEA are established skincare brands that offer distinct approaches to daily hydration and protection. The former is a Korean line known for [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) within toners, moisturizers, sunscreens, and masks, while the latter is a German line celebrated for versatile sunscreens, targeted [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/serum), and nourishing moisturizers formulated with [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/glycerin). Both suit sensitive skin well, though the Korean brand favors combination skin through soothing botanicals, and the German brand favors oily skin through lightweight moisture. Ultimately, they differ through their origin, signature ingredients, and specific formulations designed for varied complexion needs.

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