# Avène vs Allies of Skin

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/compare/avene-vs-allies-of-skin

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

Avène and Allies of Skin are two distinct skincare lines known for differing formulations, textures, and results. Avène offers gentle moisturizers, protective sunscreens, targeted [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/serum), and soothing cleansers formulated with [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/glycerin) to suit oily acne-prone skin and combination skin best. In contrast, the brand is deeply loved for its thoughtful range of moisturizers, serums, and eye products built around potent ingredients like [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/niacinamide) that suit dry skin and mature skin best. Both differ because the French skincare brand founded in 1990 and owned by Fondation Pierre Fabre focuses on hydration and barrier function, while Allies of Skin works to improve skin aging signs and decrease hyperpigmentation.

Avène is a French skincare brand founded in 1990 and owned by Fondation Pierre Fabre.
