# Minimalist vs KORRES

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/es/compare/minimalist-vs-korres

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

Minimalist and KORRES are established skincare brands offering targeted daily essentials for diverse complexions. The former is known for functional sunscreens, moisturizers, and cleansers featuring key ingredients like [salicylic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/salicylic-acid), LHA, and [vitamin B5](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/vitamin-b5), making both its formulations best suited for combination and acne-prone skin. Meanwhile, KORRES is warmly loved for its thoughtfully crafted moisturizers and cleansers that draw on the rich heritage of botanical formulas, suiting sensitive and dry skin best. These offerings differ as the Indian brand prioritizes scientific actives, whereas the botanical line leans into nourishing natural ingredients.

Minimalist is an Indian skincare brand founded in 2020 and owned by Unilever PLC since 2025.
