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

Garnier SkinActive and L'Oreal Paris are French skincare brands founded in the early twentieth century and owned by L'Oréal. The first brand is beloved for its makeup removers, moisturizers, exfoliants, and sunscreens featuring [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/glycerin), while the second is widely loved for its [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/serum), moisturizers, masks, and eye products formulated with [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid) and glycerin. Both brands suit acne-prone skin and oily skin best, though they differ in their specific targeted formulations and standout products like micellar [waters](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/water) and Revitalift creams.

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