SKIN1004 vs No7

Rated by Lovi · Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes · How the Fit score works

SKIN1004 and No7 are established Asian and British skincare houses founded in 2012 and 1935, respectively. The Korean brand features toners, moisturizers, sunscreens, and masks built around centella asiatica, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide, suiting combination and sensitive skin best. Conversely, the British house offers serums, eye products, moisturizers, and sunscreens formulated with vitamin C, shea butter, and hyaluronic acid to serve dry and mature skin. While both incorporate hyaluronic acid, the former relies on centella asiatica for moisture and acne reduction, whereas the latter utilizes shea butter to protect skin and mitigate erythema.

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