# Anua vs RoC

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/compare/anua-vs-roc

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

Anua and RoC are established skincare brands offering moisturizers, cleansers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/serum), and more, with the former leaning on [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), [heartleaf](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/heartleaf), and [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/niacinamide) while the latter relies on [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/glycerin) and [retinol](https://lovi.care/skincare/fr/ingredients/retinol). The Korean label Anua suits oily, acne-prone, and dry skin best through targeted items like its heartleaf toner and niacinamide serum, whereas the French brand RoC focuses on mature skin and dark spots with standouts like its eye cream and hydration cream. Both brands differ in their founding eras and regional approaches, as the former emphasizes soothing botanicals for blemish-prone complexions and the latter highlights proven anti-aging compounds.

Anua is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2019 and owned by The Founders Inc..
