# Olay vs No7

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/compare/olay-vs-no7

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

Olay and No7 are two established skincare lines offering thoughtful selections of moisturizers, eye products, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/serum), and cleansers. The first brand is beloved for formulas featuring [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/niacinamide) and [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/glycerin) that suit mature and acne-prone skin best, while the British brand founded in 1935 features [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/vitamin-c), [shea butter](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/shea-butter), and [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid) to suit dry and mature skin best. Both collections address varied concerns through targeted treatments, differing primarily in their signature ingredient blends and targeted skin type alignments.

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