# The INKEY List vs Pixi

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/compare/the-inkey-list-vs-pixi

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

The INKEY List and Pixi are British skincare brands offering moisturizers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/serum), toners, and eye products designed to nourish the complexion. The former brand relies on [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/glycerin) to suit sensitive and combination skin, while the latter brand utilizes balanced formulas to support mature and oily skin. Through targeted offerings like toners and serums, both provide reliable results for specific concerns such as acne, dark spots, and aging. Ultimately, the two lines differ in their foundational ingredients and ideal skin types, delivering gentle yet effective daily care.

The INKEY List is a British skincare brand founded in 2018 and owned by Brand Evangelists for Beauty Limited.

Lovi compares products by their fit scores, calculated from the full ingredient list with brand-independent rules its dermatologists and cosmetic chemists build and review, and personalizes every pick with AI trained on the real results of millions of users. Lovi trains its fit score models on a proprietary dataset built from more than 10,000 expert-labeled products and more than 100,000 simulated examples, following an internally consistent methodology presented at Cosmoprof, AMWC, and Skin of Color Update. Levels from best to worst: Superior, High, Average, Low, Caution, Warning.
