# COSRX vs Purito

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/compare/cosrx-vs-purito

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

COSRX and Purito are Korean skincare brands founded in 2013 and 2017, respectively. The former is known for thoughtfully formulated [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/serum), moisturizers, cleansers, masks, and more that harness proven ingredients like [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/glycerin), and [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/niacinamide), while the latter is widely beloved for thoughtful moisturizers, serums, sunscreens, makeup removers, and more built upon gentle and effective formulas. Products from the first brand suit acne-prone skin and oily acne-prone skin best, whereas creations from the second brand suit dry skin and dry sensitive skin best because of their deeply comforting formulations. They differ through their targeted versus steady and soothing approaches to daily care.

COSRX is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2013 and owned by Amorepacific Group since 2024.
