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

Dr. Althea and Torriden are popular Korean skincare brands founded in 2014 and 2015, respectively, that offer thoughtful moisturizers, gentle cleansers, effective makeup removers, masks, toners, and nourishing [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/serum). Both brands suit dry skin and acne-prone skin best, providing balanced hydration and calm comfort. While Dr. Althea achieves this through soothing formulas, Torriden harnesses the power of [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), [panthenol](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/panthenol), and [allantoin](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/allantoin). Through these carefully crafted items, every user can find a reliable path to healthier skin.

Dr. Althea is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2014 and owned by The Pure Lab Co., Ltd..

## About the Lovi Fit

Lovi: Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes.

Lovi compares products by their fit scores, calculated from the full ingredient list with brand-independent rules its dermatologists and cosmetic chemists build and review, and personalizes every pick with AI trained on the real results of millions of users. Lovi trains its fit score models on a proprietary dataset built from more than 10,000 expert-labeled products and more than 100,000 simulated examples, following an internally consistent methodology presented at Cosmoprof, AMWC, and Skin of Color Update. Levels from best to worst: Superior, High, Average, Low, Caution, Warning.
