# NIVEA vs Biore

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/es/compare/nivea-vs-biore

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

NIVEA and Biore are heritage skincare brands, with the former founded in Germany in 1911 and the latter established in Japan in 1980. The German brand is known for reliable sunscreens, targeted [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/serum), and nourishing moisturizers formulated with [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/glycerin), while the Japanese brand is beloved for its thoughtful range of sunscreens, cleansers, masks, and makeup removers. Both options suit sensitive skin and combination skin best, though they differ as the former relies on glycerin to improve stratum corneum hydration and barrier function, while the latter delivers gentle yet thorough daily care.

NIVEA is a German skincare brand founded in 1911 and owned by maxingvest GmbH & Co. KGaA since 2004.
