# SKIN1004 vs Elemis

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/compare/skin1004-vs-elemis

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

SKIN1004 and Elemis are two distinct skincare labels offering specialized remedies for various complexions. The South Korean brand relies on [centella asiatica](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/centella-asiatica), [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), and [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/niacinamide) within its toners, moisturizers, sunscreens, and masks to serve sensitive and dry skin best. Meanwhile, the British house weaves together [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/glycerin) and shea across its nourishing [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/serum), rich moisturizers, gentle cleansers, and refining toners to suit dry and mature skin. While both share a dedication to thoughtful formulations, they differ through their geographic origins, founding eras, and signature botanical blends.

SKIN1004 is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2012 and owned by Goodai Global Inc. since 2024.
