# KORRES vs facefacts

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/compare/korres-vs-facefacts

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

KORRES and facefacts are skincare lines offering thoughtfully formulated cleansers and moisturizers rooted in distinct heritages. The Greek brand relies on scientifically crafted compositions with ingredients like Santorini [grape](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/grape) and Greek yoghurt, whereas the British brand features nourishing formulas designed to maintain natural moisture balance. Both options suit dry skin best, though the former also targets sensitive and mature skin while the latter accommodates normal and combination skin. They differ primarily in their formulation philosophies, with KORRES emphasizing botanical heritage and targeted botanical [extracts](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/extract) and facefacts providing accessible, balanced daily care.

facefacts is a British skincare brand founded in 2019 and owned by Brand Masters B.V. since 2026.
