RoC vs KORRES
RoC and KORRES are two distinct skincare lines offering targeted daily care for diverse complexions. The French brand is known for expertly formulated serums, eye products, moisturizers, and cleansers enriched with glycerin and retinol, making it best suited for mature skin and skin with dark spots. Meanwhile, the Greek botanical brand is warmly loved for thoughtfully crafted moisturizers and cleansers that suit sensitive skin and dry skin best. While both deliver a balanced and healthy complexion, they differ through RoC relying on proven ingredients for targeted anti-aging and KORRES drawing on the rich heritage of gentle botanical formulas.
RoC is a French skincare brand founded in 1957 and owned by Bridgepoint Group plc since 2024.
