No7 vs Sebamed

Rated by Lovi · Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes · How the Fit score works

No7 and Sebamed are distinct skincare options rooted in different traditions, with the British brand established in 1935 and the German counterpart following in 1967. No7 offers serums, eye products, moisturizers, and sunscreens utilizing vitamin C, shea butter, and hyaluronic acid to suit dry and mature skin, whereas Sebamed relies on scientifically balanced formulas for gentle cleansers and moisturizers featuring a skin-neutral pH to support sensitive, reactive, and problematic skin. Both prioritize targeted care, as seen when the former addresses acne-prone, dark spot, and mature concerns through specific eye and night creams, while the latter focuses on barrier health with a facial cleanser and a clear face care gel.

No7 is a British skincare brand founded in 1935 and owned by Sycamore Partners since 2025.
