# SKIN1004 vs Shiseido

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/compare/skin1004-vs-shiseido

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

SKIN1004 and Shiseido are prominent Asian skincare brands that offer thoughtfully crafted products like moisturizers and sunscreens. The Korean brand features [centella asiatica](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/centella-asiatica), [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), and [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/niacinamide) to suit acne-prone and oily skin, while the Japanese brand relies on [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/glycerin) to provide gentle daily care for sensitive and mature skin. Both lines address specific concerns through distinct formulations, ranging from specialized toners to rich creams. Ultimately, they differ in their heritage, core ingredients, and ideal skin types.

SKIN1004 is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2012 and owned by Goodai Global Inc. since 2024.
