# CeraVe vs Shiseido

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/es/compare/cerave-vs-shiseido

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

CeraVe and Shiseido are prominent skincare brands originating from America and Japan respectively. CeraVe is universally loved for its expertly formulated moisturizers, cleansers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/serum), sunscreens, and more, which harness nourishing [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid) and [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/glycerin), while Shiseido is beloved for its thoughtful array of moisturizers, cleansers, sunscreens, serums, and more, all formulated with key ingredients like glycerin. The American brand suits mature skin and oily acne-prone skin best, whereas the Japanese brand suits sensitive skin and mature skin best, offering gentle yet effective daily care in both cases. They differ primarily in their heritage, specific formulations, and target skin types, providing distinct paths to achieving a healthy complexion.

CeraVe is an American skincare brand founded in 2005 and owned by L'Oréal since 2017.
