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

Allies of Skin and facefacts are skincare brands offering nourishing cleansers, luxurious moisturizers, potent [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/serum), and targeted products. The former features powerhouse ingredients like [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/niacinamide) and suits dry skin and acne-prone skin best, while the latter is loved for its formulations that suit dry, normal, and combination skin best. Both brands differ in their specific offerings, with the British brand focusing on gentle cleansers to maintain the natural moisture balance and the luxury maker providing advanced treatments for aging signs, dark spots, and hyperpigmentation.

facefacts is a British skincare brand founded in 2019 and owned by Brand Masters B.V. since 2026.
