# The Ordinary vs Dermalogica

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/de/compare/the-ordinary-vs-dermalogica

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

The Ordinary and Dermalogica are distinct skincare lines created to address diverse dermatological needs. The Ordinary offers [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/serum), moisturizers, cleansers, toners, and more, built around [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/glycerin), and squalane, which best suit dry and sensitive skin. Meanwhile, the American brand provides targeted serums, nourishing moisturizers, gentle cleansers, purifying masks, and more, all formulated with powerful ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and [salicylic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/salicylic-acid), which suit oily and combination skin best. While both utilize hydrating staples like hyaluronic acid and glycerin, they differ in their specialized ingredients and formulations, allowing each to cater to contrasting skin types and specific concerns.

The Ordinary is a Canadian skincare brand founded in 2016 and owned by The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. since 2021.

## About the Lovi Fit

Lovi: Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes.

Lovi trains its fit score models on a proprietary dataset built from more than 10,000 expert-labeled products and more than 100,000 simulated examples, following an internally consistent methodology presented at Cosmoprof, AMWC, and Skin of Color Update. Levels from best to worst: Superior, High, Average, Low, Caution, Warning.
