# RoC vs Minimalist

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/it/compare/roc-vs-minimalist

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

RoC and Minimalist are heritage French and modern Indian skincare brands known for expertly formulated [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/serum), eye products, sunscreens, moisturizers, and cleansers enriched with [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/glycerin), [retinol](https://lovi.care/skincare/it/ingredients/retinol), and other proven ingredients. The former brand suits mature skin and dry skin best with deeply nourishing care, whereas the latter brand fits acne-prone skin and oily skin best. Through these contrasting approaches, both brands offer standout targeted options ranging from cleansers to hydrating creams.

RoC is a French skincare brand founded in 1957 and owned by Bridgepoint Group plc since 2024.
