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

BABOR and Vasanti are distinguished skincare companies from Germany and Canada, respectively, that offer thoughtful formulas to elevate daily routines. The German line is deeply loved for its refined exfoliants and rich moisturizers, while the Canadian brand is cherished for its gentle exfoliants and meticulously balanced products. The first suits dry, normal, and combination skin best, featuring standout items like the Enzyme Cleanser and the Hydra Plus, whereas the latter accommodates balanced, combination, and sensitive skin types through reliable options such as the Brighten Up! Exfoliator. Ultimately, they differ in their heritage and specific skin-type suitability, though both consistently deliver reliable results.

BABOR is a German skincare brand founded in 1956 and owned by BABOR BEAUTY GROUP since 1962.
