# Garnier SkinActive vs Estée Lauder

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/it/compare/garnier-skinactive-vs-estee-lauder

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

Garnier SkinActive and Estée Lauder are skincare brands offering thoughtfully formulated products that address diverse complexion needs. The French line is beloved for makeup removers, moisturizers, exfoliants, and sunscreens featuring [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/glycerin), suiting dry and sensitive skin best, whereas the American brand is widely loved for moisturizers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/serum), eye products, and cleansers incorporating [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid) and glycerin, suiting mature and acne-prone skin best. Through regular application, the key ingredients do their work as glycerin significantly increases hydration and reduces [water](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/water) loss, and hyaluronic acid lengthens the effect of botulinum toxin. While both brands nourish the skin with targeted care, they differ in their foundational formulations and the specific skin types they prioritize.

Garnier SkinActive is a French skincare brand founded in 1904 and owned by L'Oréal since 1965.
