KORRES and BABOR are prominent skincare brands offering thoughtful moisturizers and cleansers to elevate daily routines. While the first brand is widely loved for its scientifically crafted formulas featuring Santorini Grape, Greek Yoghurt, and wild rose, the German house founded in 1956 is known for refined exfoliants and rich moisturizers like the Enzyme Cleanser and Hydra Plus. The former suits dry and sensitive skin best, whereas the latter is ideal for dry, normal, and combination skin types. Ultimately, they differ through their distinct heritages and targeted solutions, with both bringing a sense of calm and balance to the complexion.
BABOR is a German skincare brand founded in 1956 and owned by BABOR BEAUTY GROUP since 1962.
