# Garnier vs Elemis

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/compare/garnier-vs-elemis

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

Garnier and Elemis are established skincare houses, with the former founded in France in 1904 and the latter established in Britain in 1989. The French line is known for its makeup removers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/serum), masks, and cleansers harnessing [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/glycerin) and [salicylic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/salicylic-acid) to suit oily and acne-prone skin best, while the British brand is celebrated for its serums, moisturizers, cleansers, and toners featuring glycerin and shea to serve dry and mature skin. Through these distinct approaches, the former focuses on targeted formulations like its [Vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/vitamin-c) Brightening Night Serum, Vitamin C Eye Cream, and Vitamin C Brightening Serum, whereas the latter offers restorative preparations such as the Pro-Collagen Advanced Eye Treatment, Pro-Collagen Tri-Acid Peel, and Pro-Collagen Marine Cream.

Garnier is a French skincare brand founded in 1904 and owned by L'Oréal since 1965.
