No7 vs Trilogy

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

No7 and Trilogy are established skincare names, with the British brand founded in 1935 and the latter deeply loved for thoughtful moisturizers and gentle cleansers. Both offer high-performing formulas, with the former featuring serums, eye products, moisturizers, sunscreens, and more built around vitamin C, shea butter, and hyaluronic acid. The former brand fits dry skin and mature skin best, while its counterpart suits dry, balanced, and sensitive skin types best. They differ primarily in their heritage and specific ingredient profiles, as shea butter protects diapered skin and mitigates erythema for the former.

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