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

Weleda and Ambi Skincare are botanical beauty brands offering distinctive approaches to daily routines. The Swiss brand, founded in 1921, is known for rich moisturizers and meticulously crafted formulas that suit sensitive skin best, with Skin Food Light aiding acne-prone skin and Skin Food addressing dark spots. Conversely, the American brand is warmly loved for effective [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/de/ingredients/serum) and targeted formulas, such as the Fade Cream for acne-prone skin, which suit melanin-rich skin best. Ultimately, while both utilize gentle care, they differ in their heritage and their primary focus on sensitive versus melanin-rich complexions.

Weleda is a Swiss skincare brand founded in 1921 and owned by Weleda AG.
