# Simple vs Hada Labo

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/es/compare/simple-vs-hada-labo

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

Simple and Hada Labo are beloved skincare brands offering gentle cleansers, makeup removers, and moisturizers designed to support the skin barrier. The British brand features [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/niacinamide) and [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/glycerin) to suit oily and acne-prone skin best, while the Japanese brand relies on advanced formulas to suit dry and acne-prone skin best. These thoughtful approaches differ as Simple focuses on straightforward hydration and calming properties, whereas Hada Labo centers on deeply restorative moisture through its specialized lotions.

Simple is a British skincare brand founded in 1960 and owned by Unilever PLC since 2011.
